I stopped by the local BB outlet this weekend, and discovered an 1818 madison 3 piece in my size. Glen plaid, flat front pants, side vents-- felt full canvas.
Price was 299.99, and I figure probably about 120.00 in alterations at my tailor- (pants hemmed and trimmed a bit, sleeves shortened, waist of the jacket taken in significantly), so for a total of 425.00--
Im really trying to avoid the "wow, its cheap, I better buy it" syndrome that is all too easy to fall into.
What is your experience with the 1818 line?
