@DonRaphael
Yours was the double breasted suit is that correct? Love the suit but need a single breast suit.
Yes, exactly. However, I have the Drago single breasted navy suit. Considering selling it. Interested?

SOLD

EU based

I had two of these made, one for me and one for my brother - but he changed his mind and it was too late to cancel so he's asked me to sell on his behalf.

Half canvas
52% wool 48% linen - 310 gms
Three working cuff buttons and a hand sewn Milanese buttonhole on both lapels
Flap pockets but these can be tucked in to create jetted/besom pockets, as shown in the photo.
Measurements are as per factory standard 40R contemporary fit:

Pit to pit - 54cm
Shoulder seam to shoulder seam - 47.2cm
Shoulder seam to cuff - 65cm
Across waist - 49.5cm
Back length (from bottom of collar) - 77cm

$280 USD plus shipping (the RRP on this is $688 USD - as seen in the S&M website custom section).

Wow, I would take the first two off your hands for you if they were 46R. I've been wanting to give S&M a try for over a year but haven't found anything new or used in my size.

How truly SLIM is the DB jacket? I was interested in this piece. I have not had much success with the S&M sport jackets. But I did purchase one of the linen field jackets from last season in 40 that fits great. I just have a bit of a dad belly and the derriere to match. So, I may be interested. Thanks!

I would say it's fairly slim. Even though it measures about the same as the single breasted sportscoats, it feels slimmer maybe because there's two layers of fabric in front. I haven't tried the field jacket but looking at the measurements, the 40R slim sportcoats is 4 inches slimmer in the waist than the size 40 field jacket. I think DB looks pretty badass. Is there an option for wider waist on MTO?

I'll have to hold out hope that someone posts a Contemporary version. Thanks anyway. I'm sure it will sell quickly.
