I don't believe the Fitzgerald comes in a solid navy. As to the discount, it will not apply to sale items.
The Fitzgerald is available in both solid navy and gray. However, up close, the gray has a bit of light "ash" in it... does this still qualify as "charcoal" for building the suit basics?

Unfortunately, I had no luck finding either in my size locally, so I ordered from the website. The suits arrived today.

Both are made in the USA, whereas the gray with reddish windowpane Fitzgerald I tried on in a store in my size was made in Italy. From looking at the website, the basics (solid and pinstripe navy/gray) are from USA and the "fancy" patterns/stripes are from Italy. Like a couple of posters above, I found the Italian made suit a bit slimmer, particularly in the pants. The pockets in the suit in the store bowed out a tad, whereas they lay flat in the solid I ordered, and I'll need to have the waist taken in on these.
