Yes, that is a very valid point.

I'm a consultant for a mining company (Engineer by experience I guess), but the majority of my other suits are very conservative.

I didn't really intend for this suit to be a daily business environment wearer, mostly for events, dinners, weddings etc;

I live in the Netherlands.


Then the length is probably ok. rock on.

For those that have been through the MTM program at suit supply - How is it? I see the fully canvas starts at $750. Any better deals out there?

For the NY stores, which is superior? Madison Avenue or SOHO? We have one in DC, so I am just looking for inventory really.

A coffin shaped box arrived this morning, and this was inside.
The wool fabric is top quality. Nice button.
There are side vents.
The trousers are slightly slimmer than most tux trousers. Nothing extreme.
This is the way the coat fits right out of the box. The back side is clean. There is just a bit of fabric that needs to be taken out on one shoulder. This is a 40S.
For $569, this is as good as other tuxedos for twice the money.

The arm length, for me, is perfect. There are functioning buttons.
I'm trying to compare the fit of the coat to others that I have by SuSu. In 40S, I have a Washington, two Havanas, a Lazio, and a Napoli. For me, the Lazio is the most snug and the Havana is the most roomy. I'd say that the tux is nearest the fit of a Havana.

I have that Tux, and I like it a lot. I wish all SuSu stuff had a buttoning point like that.

I got married in that tux, never regretted it! Exceptional for the price point!

How is the Tuxedo sizing? True to size, or do you have to size one down?
