    Some of you have already seen this suit. (i know...months later but i have really been lamenting getting rid of this)

    This is the one that was from the gentleman who clothed the Four Tops.

    It's a sharkskin type that goes from this brown color but instead of having a black undertone like you would expect, it's navy. It also has a number of what you might call "slubs" except they are specifically embroidered bits of navy instead of just being random character of the fabric. BTW, i am sure that it isn't silk.

    So how do i properly express how different this truly is or is simpler the better.

    Ooohhh, this is wonderful, and one can tell it's something special just by the photos! But, by all means I would expound upon its virtues and highlight its uniqueness. It is sharkskin with a twist, sharkskin with some real tooth (corny, but you get the idea....LOL!).... You could bullet some points if you don't want the prose to get overly lengthy!
     
  3. Chris, this is a fabulous suit. I don't think you will have any trouble selling this one!
