best ... I''ve ever owned
This is my second BR ... although I own many suits but most from department stores. The color is a such a deep black and doesn't look charcoal or an espresso brown like my previous Macy's black ... materials and worksmanship (not sure if that's the right word) are very high quality. The fit is excellent and I only had to hem the pants (I'm a short guy). I wore this to the ballet and got a few compliments from the others in our group. I also wore this to my company holiday party and the VP of my department said my ... looked better than his and he was wearing Hugo Boss. I had my previous black ... nearly ten years, but this BR ... far better. I only hope it lasts that long.




A staple every man should have in his wardrobe
If you are looking for a 2 button black ... that's not cut boxy and loose like most suits you'll find, then definitely try this ... labeled as Modern Fit. BR has another ... suits called Tailored ... if you are looking for a slim ... if you are a skinny person then get the Tailored ... If you workout with weights like I do though, the Tailored ... may be a bit snug though. The Modern ... good compromise though as it's not too slim and not too lose. I needed a black ... formal occasions and this ... fits the bill perfectly. The ... received was marked as made in Canada.




Excellent
I purchased this coat as part of a ... feels and looks great. I love the whole "Mad Men" look. I get many compliments on the ... well as the accessories.




A Perfect Gift
... husband hates ... pants that are pleated so it is very hard to find suits that he likes. Then we found the suits at Banana Republic. He loved his first ... here so much that I bought him this one as well. They ... great, have a modern look, but a classic feel about them as well. I think we will buy all of his suits from Banana Republic from now on!!!



Great ... great price
After having the last couple of suits made to-measure and tailored (Hong Kong and Savile Row, London) I've tended to shun off the-rail. But I was in need of a black ... having 'outgrown' my decade old Hugo Boss (i.e. got too fat for the trousers!) so I took a look at the BR modern fit ... have to say (thanks to a generous selection of chest, waist and leg lengths) it fits as good as my bespoke suits. Good quality Italian cloth from Cerrutti mills that is crease resistant and plenty of pockets. My only comment would be the lapels are narrower than I'd like. But for a ... cost me a less than $400 (pants were on sale and I also had a 20% voucher) it's a concession I can live with! I recommend buying two pairs of pants, just in case.



THE ...
I bought this ... my wedding, coming up in two months. I paid about [$] for the combined jacket and pants, and am overall happy with the purchase. I nearly bought a [$] slightly more old school but better fitting Calvin K but this more in ... price range. Banana doesn't really make suits for ... lanky guys like me, as much as JCrew or Express might normally (a 40L would have been prefect but they don't MAKE one) but hopefully the tailor will be able to help me out with the sleeves, and take in the body a bit. BUT, the quality is superb, feel is fancy, and I'm just excited to get married!


Good looking but be sure to take it to the tailor
This ... perfect example of what I love and hate about shopping at BR. The material looks great, the jacket feels great, it is comfortable in the shoulders but then you realize that there is so much material in the waist that you feel almost like you are wearing a cape! The pants too are funny with this ... usually buy 31/32 but for these pants the waist runs small even though the pants are loose modern fit. I bought last year a navy pinstriped ... BR tailor fit and the 31 and those fit great and that is the slimmer fit compared to the modern fit suits. Strange. The pants on the ... seem almost like MC Hammer pants. Small in the waist and then are too long and baggy. So I took this ... tailor and had the waist taken out a bit on the pants, had them hemmed a bit and also took the waist in on the jacket. Now it looks great after spending 50 dollars on tailoring. I hope BR gets their act together on the consistancy of their sizes.


Basic Black ...
This is a basic black 2-button ... high twist yarn. A standard staple item, classic, elegant, yet simple. When paired with the matching ... pant, it is great for a night out, to funerals, weddings and the like. The ... "Modern Fit" which isn't mentioned in the description page, but the tag sown onto the jacket states so. A "Modern Fit" is basically a looser cut in the chest, wider shoulders, etc. Best way to describe it would be a "boxy" fit. If you are looking for a looser cut, then this is what you're looking for. If you are looking for a slimmer cut, then this would be a fairly generous cut, compared to the "Tailored Fit" is offered in some other suits from BR. The sleeve holes are quite big as well. I purchased a 36R, and the sleeves were too long, I was hoping that BR offers a 36S, but they do not. The material was pretty decent, and as expected for a high twist wool ... BR. Light mid weight wool, makes it fairly versatile year round, if you live in a mild climate area.

Too sloppy for my taste
I am a fan of BR clothing and have one of their suits (charcoal modern 3-button pinstripe from a few seasons back) and many dress pants and shirts. I am accustomed to, and appreciate, BR's fit which tend to be more slim and body conscious. I was surprised then to find that the ... jacket purchased came off as quite loose in the chest area and appeared to me, sloppy. The fabric, color,length and quality were what I anticipated but I couldn't get over the "billowing" nature of the jacket on me. I've learned if it doesn't "feel right" on you, don't even try- and it didn't. I did read in some comments that it is a "modern" cut, even though it is not listed that way on the site, and thought that since my other ... fit so well, this would translate. Maybe it is because of the 2-button nature, not sure. I am an athletic guy (32" waist, 44 chest, 6"1' for reference- if that even matters) so am looking for something to flatter I guess. I would have gone for the Monogram (sp?) single button but the pants have been sold out for forever in my size; it appears as though that is a slimmer cut however and will have to go for that. I returned the ... local store after having purchased it online due to needing a "L" (long) as they don't stock these locally.
Great looking New Black Wool Two Button Blazer - Sleeves are too short for my 6''5, 215 pd hubby
We started out buying the matching wool slacks (34W 36L)The fit was PERFECT! We were so HAPPY! My husband is 6'5 215 pds. Slim muscular with Broad shoulders and 44 chest in Long. We decided to purchase the matching two button wool blazer. So he can have a full matching ... Valentines Day gift. I was so excited, everyday, waiting for it to be delivered. When it finally arrived, it was a beautiful Blazer but we were SHOCKED and disappointed at how short the sleeves were! About 2 - 2 1/2 inches short. I have not purchased a Blazer from BR (already- assuming it would be too short) But we thought we would chance it since now BR offers Big & Tall sizes. I have purchased numerous long sleeve shirts for my husband, and many, I've had to send back because the sleeves were too short, yet other shirts, in the same size - the sleeves fit perfect, whether it be for 'going out' or for 'work' . I don't understand WHY? - There are so many inconsistences with the sleeve lengths on various BR shirts. I am dumbfounded as to why I can order the same size in two different style long sleeve shirts and the sleeve length could be completely off -as if made by two different vendors- Really BUMMED to have to send it back. We were really looking forward to break in 2010 with a Versatile, Modern, Quality, Elegant, ... -- I suggest BR breakdown the exact length (as in inches , rather than Long or Tall) of each item sleeves to avoid having good customers waste so much time and energy by taking a shot in the dark, when ordering a long sleeve, and hoping and praying that it fits. Unfortunately this one, didn't. [...]
