I was about to say something along those lines too...
Watch out if you do get a gabardine type suit such as an A4, I have what appeared to be a mint sz 46 one, beautiful heavy gab, slipped it on casually and hey presto a two inch and a five inch splits appeared in one shoulder along the grain of the weave- out of no where. It's been very well repaired and reinforced since but I treat it with great care now. The HBT would be a better bet.
