I rediscovered this in the back of my closet. I've lost about 100 pounds since I last wore this, and even then, I only wore it maybe 2-3 times (I prefer separates over suits - I wore it mostly for interviews). Beautiful blue suit, with very very fine, soft, and silky smooth Italian wool. Fabric has a subtle glen plaid pattern of muted medium blue on navy/black with a burgundy stripe. Year-round weight, not heavy at all. extremely comfortable. It's tagged as an EU 66(R) but measures as a US 50(R) or so. Chest measures 26.5" across, arms are 25" from shoulder point. The slacks measure 23" across for approximately a 46" waist. The front rise measures 12", and the inseam is 31" with 2 extra inches to let out. This suit has zero flaws on it, as far as I can see. Always dry cleaned, of course. Most importantly, in my opinion, the jacket is fully canvased. Canvas construction in a jacket gives much better longevity, and optimal shape. makes the jacket lay beautifully on ones frame. The quality of Trussini, sold at Boyds Philadelphia, has been regularly compared to other high end brands, namely "Canali."
