It’s one thing to go out and buy your own Armani suit—it’s totally another to wear one that used to belong to Jon Stewart. With just three weeks left at the helm of The Daily Show, the outgoing host has already cleaned out his on-air wardrobe, and will be auctioning off his suits on eBay to benefit Achilles International. The charity, which Stewart has supported for many years, helps to enable those with disabilities to participate in athletics in an effort to improve their quality of life.

For fans—and guys who fit a size 40 short—this is great news. The 19-piece collection is almost entirely Armani Collezioni Made to Measure, and everything from tuxedos, to pinstripes, to plaid sports coats can be found in the sale—it seems the host is quite the snappy dresser. While the pieces are intended to fit Stewart’s smaller 5’5” frame, we wouldn’t blame anyone for picking up a piece or two for some ultimate television memorabilia.

The suits went up for auction yesterday with a starting price of $200 and now have bids that are topping out at $1,535. Apparently 40 short is a popular size. The auction is scheduled to end on July 30, so get your bids in, we’re expecting the prices to jump as it gets closer to the end date.
