I won this suit!

you're probably right. i think i was kidding myself it would fit me ( i read it as to fit 38 chest, but even so i can get into a 19" pit to pit jacket, though 20" is perfect).

Funnily enough i suspect that about 2/3 of my wardrobe would fit you perfect. Well, maybe only a quarter . . . (I have maintained most of the extra leg material on most of my trousers.) So much of it just that smidgen too big through the chest.

By the way, there is a white suit on the bay that I thought might fit you. You bidding?

I must say that the one thing that surprises me about this listing is that he says 38 inch chest witout specifying if it is 19 pt to pit or if it would fit a size 38. I alwasy say both very clearly. I am guessing from the waist that it is the actual measurement, hence a perfict fit for baron.

I do not think Roberto would intentionally be vague or deceiving, but how many possible bidders might he lose, not to mention having to deal with an unhappy buyer.

Copied directly from the listing ...

SINGLE BREASTED SUITS LIKE THIS ARE VERY RARE AND HARD TO COME BY

And you can't find 'em just anywhere, either.

I love the colour of the suit, the cut looks excellent and it is the lapels that get me nice and wide....

I wish I was a lanky boy lol...

Only think I got off ebay of late is this Navy Cape FDR wore in the Yalta conference..

I will keep you in mind. Not likely tho', this is my dream suit for notch lapels. I can't wait for it to get here. I wait at the mail box every day.....lol
