Liked it so much I bought a second one! By Balaenaceps Rex from Los Angeles on 06/30/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Breathable, Comfortable, Versatile Best Uses: Casual Wear, Going Out, Travel Describe Yourself: Comfort-oriented, Conservative, Stylish Chest Size: Feels too small Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This suit is outstanding! As mentioned above, I bought a second suit because I liked the first one so much. The overall quality of this suit is excellent!
Guys: you can't go wrong with this classic seersucker. I compared it--in person--to a seersucker suit from Brooks Brothers, and this one is more comfortable. In addition, the "puckers" in the cotton of the Haspel suit are more pronounced, which grant an overall better cooling effect to the wearer. The BB jacket was fully lined (which is fine) but it's also warmer--and that's not a plus in brutally hot and humid climates.
The Haspel is a tad tight in the chest (I'm a 41R but ordered the 42R), but my tailor can let it out without any problem. The taped seams are a nice touch. The ONLY better touch on the BB suit was the mother-of-pearl buttons (the Haspel's are plastic). Not to worry, though: I'm going to pick up some MOP buttons cheaply and have the tailor sew 'em on.
Another plus: at STP's fantastic price,you'd be a fool not to buy one or more.
One final thought: those women who have good taste (and there aren't many here in the sartorial wasteland of Los Angeles) LOVE this suit on a guy. I've had numerous compliments from them--and even from women who are uninformed in fashion matters. Bottom line: this suit turns you into a chick magnet!
Buy this suit and brace yourself.
Seventeen-Year-Old Son LOVES this Suit By orcoastmom from Southern Oregon Coast on 06/22/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Breathable, Comfortable Best Uses: Formal Occasions, Going Out Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: My son needed to wear a suit for a stage performance in the humid heat of Alabama this summer. A seersucker ensemble was just the ticket. This Haspel Suit looks good, fits well, and is nicely constructed.

Great Suit at a Great Price By Murf from Tennessee on 04/19/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Breathable, Comfortable Describe Yourself: Conservative, High-end shopper Chest Size: Feels too small Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I've owned Haspel "cord" suits for years but this is my first seersucker. Very nice, well made. It does run a bit small in the chest which is fine for me. I travel to Memphis a lot and this suit will be perfect for travel and summer wear. A classic suit--and you can wear either the jacket or the pants separately!
