The Showdown in Chinatown Suit - 450$
Important Update: to read about the new Indochino Steve Nash Collection released on October 25, 2011, go herehttp://www.indochino-review.com/2011/10/steve-nash-invests-in-indochino-and.html

Staying true to their weekly release cycle, Indochino today released a (kind of) new suit with a new lining (mystery solved - it is indeed lining). Limited to 50 pieces, the Showdown in Chinatown Suit is made specifically for the Steve Nash Foundation's Showdown in Chinatown - this special event gathers soccer and basketball athletes to raise money for underserved children around the world. Indochino is a co-sponsor and also donates all profits from the suit to support the Steve Nash Foundation. 

The suit itself is basically the Ultimate Grey Suit (100% wool) with a special lining and a red collar felt. The price is a bit higher than usual, but as mentioned above, the profits go to the foundation.

Like the different lining. Wish there were more of these available for the standard suits.

Just received my order (waiting for me at home), and I planned on ordering the Ultimate Grey very soon. Was hoping to get an odd lining for it, as I had hoped for my Navy Linen but couldnt wait, and unsure I could wait to order the Ultimate Grey.

Its pretty cool, if I didnt already own I would consider this alternate version.  But in general I think the creative linings are best on their louder suits - typically the ones with pinstripes.  Like I wouldnt want to wear this one to a job interview.

yeah, more lining would indeed be great! I assume they keep it for one of the following collections, but it would be great if we could have some options other than solid colours and I would also be prepared to pay more for 100% silk lining instead of the poly.
