Hi,
I am trying to figure out if I should keep a blue chalk stripe two button double breasted suit made by brooks brothers golden fleece. I bought it at a pretty good deal, $498 (no tax--NJ) off from $1298.
I have two issues: One, its a heavy wool so I would only be able to wear it for two seasons which is annoying. The second and more important issue is that its a 40R with a 34 inch waist and I am a 38-39R Jacket size with a 32' waist. I did a search in the store to see if any of the other stores had the suit in my size and no one does, so now I am trying to figure out if I really want to go through all the tailoring (i need to take it in all over) and maybe end up with an awkward looking suit.
What are your thoughts? And is Golden Fleece actually that good? I am leaning towards returning it, but it has become very hard to find a good suit for under $500 over the past few months so I'm not sure what I should do.
any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.
