I would go for a suit or a jacket. If you do the suit, can you get extra fabric for pants?

Rick, I gotta come by the Mississauga location at some point and get some gear. Will send you a PM.

I'd be interested in a Fresco suit or two. Sure they are a bit more pricey than the current line, but a good fabric can make or a break a suit. Worth the extra $$ as far as I am concerned.

I would be in on a jacket, but it would need to be in a unique color like the green, rust, or burgundy mentioned above. Maybe a dark brown. I just have too many blue jackets and my wife will kill me if I end up with another one.

I have a brown fresco blazersuit incoming from S&M.

My wife also imposed a restriction on blue jackets.

That's a great price for a suit, but I'm well stocked on suits. So I'll have to agree with @exfalso here in that maybe a jacket would be a good start. That being said, I would like to see something outside of navy/blue/grey for an odd jacket. The fabric is kind of "suity" as @Claghorn mentioned, so maybe a less formal/standard colour would be an option?

I like:
-forest green
-bright rust
-burgundy
(all from Fresco III)
I agree with this sentiment

Just finished laundry, I think I counted 4 polos and 30 shirts...

What's up next Rick? Haha


Oh and if anyone is a 15.5 Slim and need one of the university stripes PM and let me know. The 15.5 contemporarys I have ran small so are a bit snug on me. I should let them go.

Also, we've improved our unfused collar and cuffs. I suggest with these shirts to ask for Unfused collars/cuffs, really outstanding.

Does this mean future oxfords may be unfused with either a soft lining or unlined? I do like them as is but have noticed more than a few with that odd wrinkling from the fusing so would be curious how the unfused collars may be.

In for a suit. But post swatches, I'd probably also get a jacket. And maybe MTO a pair of pants.

A fresco suit would be awesome! I would see one getting plenty of use, working in DC and having to wear business attire.

Definitely in for a Minnis Fresco MTO suit at that price.

Air Force Blue shade would be my preference. I can't remember the colour code off the top of my head - 0820?

0520. It's darker than AFB but might be what you are thinking of.
