I don't know if anyone else got it, but about an hour ago I got a jcrew invite to their "Private Ludlow Suiting" event with 30% off fall/winter suiting styles. Custom code or I'd share it, but I expect it went to their entire mailing list.

Yup, i got one as well.

is this the same thing, i.e. is this the page linked from the email - https://www.jcrew.com/mens_feature/T...VIP=LPW8Z4TED?

but we'd need a code to get the 30% off?

$31.50 (30% off $45) Bespoke Post "Sweat" Box with Blue Claw duffel bag (20"x10.5"x10.5") with code "FEB30". I think you have to be a new member and opt for the subscription. Limited to 50 uses according to them. Here's my referral: https://www.bespokepost.com/r/c679. This weekender/gym duffel seems like a great buy for around 30 bucks.

Feck -- spent the full $45 on that, although not a new member. Bag is definitely a value at $45 thought, steal at $30.

This one isn't "on the net" but I was at JC Penney over the weekend and saw a bunch of Stafford corduroy blazers on clearance for $35, with several colors and all sizes available. These were in the suit section not the clearance section. Tried one on and the fit leaned more towards modern, although IIRC it was labeled "classic fit". Does not seem to be listed on their website except in Big & Tall sizing.

^ As an added bonus to Jims note, JCP also has a Stafford blazer in a blackwatch pattern on clearance for under $50 in store. All wool, classic fit.

Classic fit. Womp womp.

I have the Blackwatch plaid blazer and have worn it in a number of different scenarios. Looks great with dark jeans, but also dressed up. Yes it is a classic fit, but is still pretty modern in styling. I normally wear a 44R, but sized down to a 42R and with a little tailoring, it looks great. Not a heavy wool and shoulders are not giant.

Side note: I bought the Stafford Harris Tweed plaid this weekend for $50 buck last weekend in store using a 15% coupon. Again, size down. Shoulders are larger than on the Blackwatch but it still looks good. It is at the tailor having the waist and sides brought in a touch and will be a great jacket those cold foggy days and night in SF.

Did you size down because of the classic cut, or do the Staffords normally run big?

[Slow*Jim]

I am a 42R and the corduroy blazer seemed to fit TTS. I am 6'0 and ~205lbs.

I sized down on a stafford classic fit blazer (from 40S to 38S) and the only thing I needed done was shortening sleeves. It fit slim and modern every where else.
I'm 5'8 155lbs.

Looks like I may have to stop by a JCP to try on some jackets.

6'2", 245 - usually a 48 with tailoring every time. Biggest issue I have is finding shoulders wide enough.

Thank you all for the sizing input

Normally I'd agree and say size down (the Classic Fit is known to be boxy), but this one in particular actually fit pretty trim OTR. They don't make one in 38R to compare with, but the 40R fit very well with a thin sweater underneath. Shame I didn't buy it at the time.
