I prefer to ship CONUS only, but may consider international shipping on a case-by-case basis. All items are priced competitively for quick selling. Measurements are taken to the best of my ability, but do note that they are approximate. Don't hesitate to PM with any questions. Prices include Priority Mail shipping in the CONUS. Insurance will be optional, with buyer responsibility.

These all will fit a slim 40s frame. The pants waists are approximately 31-32" with at least 3" extra and are hemmed to 29" or 29.5" with either 2" of extra material or a large cuff to let out.

These are from my personal collection in gently worn condition. Priced competitively to move quickly.
