Flannel glen plaid in the Lazio fit. Not sure if a 40R is too short for me, though. Thoughts?

Apparently, it looks good. How is the back? I notice it looks tight at you back between the shoulders and creates a slight arch on your lapels. As to lenght I really think it's good pending for the short side, which I personally prefer.

I need some advice. I have a grey la spalla from this season that I purchased online, and had altered (waist taken in, sleeves lengthened, and trousers hemmed). I have now come to accept it does not fit and need to sell it. What would be an appropriate price to ask on eBay or the marketplace?

The back is actually fine. I was rolling my shoulders forward in this picture a bit, which I think made it look tighter than it is.

How do you know that they will come out tomorrow?

Well I didn't know for sure, but they are here now, so I was right!

I pay attention to Suitsupply's social media, they sometimes respond to user comments.

As for the full collection, I don't really see anything I like. Glad I stuck with the Hudson 3-piece!

Those waistcoats with straight horizontal cuts combined with flat-front trousers can really look quite ridiculous:



It may actually look better IRL than it does on the model (as often appears to be the case with Suitsupply's clothes), but the cut seems to accentuate the width of the hips in a very unflattering way.

I'm actually on the lookout for a basic, staple navy jacket. I've found two SS jackets which look like they can still my needs; the new Hudson navy blazer and a Havana blazer. Which one of these two do you guys think would be the best staple navy blazer?

Havana Jacket: http://eu.suitsupply.com/en_SE/jack...=design&prefn3=fitID&prefv2=Plain&prefv1=Blue
Hudson jacket: http://eu.suitsupply.com/en_SE/jack...=design&prefn3=fitID&prefv2=Plain&prefv1=Blue

The thing with the Hudson jacket is that the color seems more of a "staple navy", which is good, but it isn't 100% wool as I've heard a staple jacket should be, also the buttons seem to be a little too light for all-year-round usage (although they can be exchanged easily). I also like the wider lapels of the Hudson. Which one would would you guys recommend?

AW: Suitsupply NYC

AHey guys,

so I've noticed that the pics I posted last time for kinda flawed from the base as I shot with a rather short focal length from a low base. I've redone the pics with a longer focal length te eliminate perspective distortion. This time I've marked the floor to always stand at the same point and added shots from the side and the back.

Obvious fact is that I have a postural deformity of my spine since I was a child and have a lower right shoulder than left. I didn't try to compensate this. Also the suits are not pressed but worn in the last two weeks. These are therefore just pictures of how that stuff looks on me. I took blue ones if I had them so it looks easier comparable and you're not skewed by colors.

My measurements are:
176 cm tall
71kg at somewhere between 15 and 20% bodyfat
Neck 40cm
Shoulders measured straight over the back 61cm
Chest 102cm
Arm flexed 36cm
Waist 76cm
Hip 96cm
Thigh 58cm

Jackets in EU48, only adjustment is sleeves shortened.

Comparison of buttoning point:
800



I think I prefer the fit of Lazio, a real pity that all the nice colors are Napoli typically. Clearly dislike how the Havana looks on me.

What do you guys think, could I get a better fit with the SuitSupply MTM?
