I loved this suit. I wore this suit. I would have kept it forever--even as I didn't touch throughout the Pandemic--but a kid happened, and the sympathy weight came after that; skinny suits are not a middle aged man's gig anymore, alas. As I've tried to detail in the pictures, the jacket will need some touch-up--that's reflected in the price. It's nothing a good tailor/seamstress can't fix: just cleaning up the inside and outside seams and the left and right side of the jacket. The suit is an investment: invest a few bucks in someone who knows how to repair clothes.
