ok. I had a chance to look at a few OTR tuxes. RL and Brooks Brothers. They are just not going to cut it. The jackets are way to big; I have large shoulders and chest but a small waist (32). Just like with my Canali tux I purchased, it looks like I'm swimming in the jackets. And the pants are WAY to skinny. I almost need a straight leg and flare cut at the leg opening so it doesn't look like I'm wearing clown shoes with my large feet.
I want my tux to fit like one of Ari's suits on Entourage. Perfect shoulders, slim, and wider leg pants.
I may have to go M2M because bespoke with Fields or others are going to bust the budget with $3,500+. Just can't justify spending that on an item I'll wear once. I attend black tie events about once every two years max.
So, any reccomendations on M2M in the DC area for tuxes around $2k? This Geoffrey Lewis place? Visiting E/A in Westminster is a LONG drive. M2M concerns me, but if I can find someone that does outstanding work, I would definitely pull the trigger.
