Up for sale is an incredible Corneliani mainline suit in true size 38R. Made in Italy with full canvas construction. GRAIL open-weave "fresco" wool in grey. Fresco needs little introduction on the forum. The iGent fabric of choice for the warmer months. Follow the eBay link for detailed information, measurements and pictures. You can make a purchase through the eBay website or directly from me through Paypal. Styleforum members get a 5% discount if you make your purchase directly through Paypal, which is the method of payment that most sellers on this board use. Just send me a PM. eBay link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NWT-2200-Co...ize-38R-/321716949515?ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT $675 shipped CONUS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have excellent feedback here I will ship to the rest of the world at cost. Please add $15 for shipping to the rest of the world (countries that are not the US or Canada). As is implied with all SF classified listings, the sale is final. Sold as is. First one to pay gets the item. I will only "hold" an item for a person who submits payment via Paypal "eCheck" via PayPal eCheck. Once the check clears via Paypal, I will ship the item.​
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is a listing for an incredible, new-with-tags Corneliani mainline suit. It features full canvas construction. Made in Italy to the highest standards. It is tagged a 40R US / 50R EU, but runs small and fits like a true 38R US / 48R EU. (See measurements below. Please read carefully as returns will not be accepted. A shoulder measurement of 17.65, a chest of 20.75 and a jacket length of 28.75 correlate with a size 38R) The quality of the 100% wool fabric on this suit is superb. Spring-summer weight. Very crisp. Corneliani sources fabrics from some of the best mills in the world for its suits. This suit is no exception. It would make an excellent addition to any closet. The fabric can be characterized as an open-weave wool "fresco." It feels very similar to the much-raved about fabric from the English mill of Hardy Minnis. This fabric has a dry texture and an "open weave" to let in the air during the warmer months. It wears very cool in the warm weather. The open weave texture also resists wrinkles and drapes very well. You can read more about fresco wool here: http://www.gentlemansgazette.com/fresco-wool-fabric-suit-outfit/ The color of the fabric is solid grey. The MSRP on this suit is about $2200 before tax. So consider this a deal on an amazing suit in a rare size! Specs: -Made in Italy by Corneliani mainline -Slim cut -FULL Canvas Construction -Two button jacket -Grey open weave "fresco" wool outer fabric (100% wool) -Double vented jacket -Jacket fully with bemberg cupro -Slim cut with great trim waist -Flat front pants -Will generally need little or no alterations off the rack Approximate measurements in inches (reference only): Shoulders: 17.65 Chest pit to pit: 20.75 Sleeve from seam to cuff: 25.25 Length: 28.75 Waist: 33 (with material to let out) Rise: 9.85 Inseam: 33.4 with an extra 2.75 folded into the factory basting (unfinished and unhemmed) Leg Opening: 7.35
