Steal Alert: Spier and Mackay Core Suits have been Restocked!

Spier & Mack Suits in Navy, Charcoal, Med. Gray, or Blue Shark. – $328

NOTE: This is a pre-order. Estimated ship date for these suits is 9/24/18.

Thank goodness.

One of if not the best value in the men’s suit market is back. And just in time for the weather to cool off. Here’s what these things have going for them:

• Available in two fits (slim & contemporary. The latter being a more athletic fit.)
• Made from 100% Australian merino wool, now upgraded to a super 120s fabric.
• Lightly padded shoulders.
• Lined in Bemberg, not cheap & stuffy polyester.
• Timeless lapel width. Not too thin, not too wide.
• Timeless button stance. Not too high, not slung super low.
• Sleeve cuff buttons are non functioning. Makes for easier tailoring.
• If it’s your first suit or sportcoat purchase, they’ll cover the return shipping.

That’s a lot for $328. And yes, while Spier and Mackay does run sales, they also seem to run out of stock. Fast. Not Jomers fast, but fast all the same. So while this might be a pre-order (estimated ship date is September 24th,) if you’re a common size (38R, 40R, 42R) and you want to jump on the Spier bandwagon? You might want to strongly consider getting in while they still have your size.

Colors available for pre-order are the wheelhouse shades that a suited up fella would want to stock his closet with: Navy, Charcoal, and medium gray. Plus sharkskin options for blue, charcoal, and medium gray too. For the rookies (welcome aboard!) sharskin fabric has more visual texture to it. It’s more or less a solid, but not as deeply solid/saturated as other fabrics.

Note that the image at the top of the post is their blue sharkskin from last season, made from a more expensive Vitale Barberis wool. But it sure looks pretty close to the blue sharkskin they’re offering this season.

Big thanks to Mark G. for sending along the tip.

That’s all. Carry on.
