Very nice Brooks Brothers Golden Fleece suit. Size 40R. Sleeves and trousers are unfinished. Center vent. Suit is missing buttons for sleeves. If you want, I can buy you a whole set from Tender Buttons at cost. Great fabric that has a nice light weight. I'd wear it in spring/summer and wouldn't dream of selling this if it was my size, but it is a little larger than I'd hoped and I'm really a 38R. Color is more of a light tan than grey. MSRP around $1300+. I'm asking $400 shipped anywhere in the world. Measurements: Shoulder: 18.5" Chest: 42" Waist: 40" Length: 30.5" Sleeve: 24.5" with approx. 3.5" up sleeve. Unfinished. Trousers Waist: 34.5" Rise: 11.25" Thigh: 14.25" approx (under crotch from front to back) Ankle: 8 7/8" Inseam: 37" unfinished.

i hope someone buys that suit soon-- what a great choice for a spring/ summer suit, with a lot of handwork and classic style.

Looks great in your photos, I can only imagine how good it really looks! A hair too small for me on top but someone should grab this.

Ain't that the truth! It's a great suit. And I'll take $300 for it.

$300! Golden Fleece. Buy it.

Bargain! Unfortunately I have said to myself that my next suit will be 3 piece.

i would have to do a skeletal surgical operation to reduce my bone constitution down to a 40 r.


Probably not worth surgery, though it is a nice suit. It's also sold pending payment. Thanks, guys!

Realize this is an old thread - long shot - but any chance the suit is still available?
