Correct, everything but the Napoli has pants with a large enough thigh allowance to compensate those who have any form of quads. 


That's not my experience. Are you saying there is allowance in the side seams at the thighs? Most RTW makers only leave seam allowance in the waist and seat.

There isn't an allowance in the thighs - what I meant was the thighs are disproportionately tight, compared to how generous the jacket is.

Outlet is open, but nothing is available but a single pair of pants and a bag...

Did you guys receive an email notification that it had reopened, or did someone just happen to notice that you can get through to the outlet site? I get the "sorry folks, park's closed, the moose out front shoulda told ya" message as of now.

Regarding the leg room in trousers for SS suit models:

Does anyone have any experience with the new "York" fit? As far as I see they've just renamed the fit that was formerly known as "London".
What is the situation with the leg room in it?

http://eu.suitsupply.com/en/suits/y...=Suits&prefn1=collection&prefv1=Spring/Summer


I've bought 4 SS suits when I started working in a bank 3 years ago, and since have gained 25 lbs, mostly in legs (squats lol). The only model that still fits me, size 98, albeit very tightly in trousers, is the Sienna. The Napoli and Lazio trousers are hopeless for me.

I'm 215 lbs and 6'2. Thinking of going up to size 102 with my next purchase.

I'm the exact height and weight. I wear lots of Londons, all 42R which I think it's 102. They fit me great in legs and I have big squats also from playing soccer.

I am curious how York fit 42R correlates with your height and weight... pics would be great!

Thanks for the info! And what size shirts you wear? I am 16 in TML and 40 in SS shirts.

Guys -

New yorker checking in and I will admit candidly I know nothing about suit supply.

I am not here to start a flame war or put down anyone's else's brands, but how does the quality of suit supply compare to a place like mysuit?

For corporate sales, what styles would you recommend? I'm looking for that a light-medium grey suit and also a blue suit (not navy) suggestions on where I should start?

For reference I am 6'2 , roughly 210 pounds and lift weights, so slim fit probably isn't an option.

A good start would be about 4000 posts ago. Seriously. There is a ton of chatter on this thread about which model is slimmer, which is fashion forward, which works for offices, etc etc etc.

Nice. I'm hoping they'll release a plain blue or a charcoal one soon. Could you take a picture of the shoulder and tell us how it feels compared to the La Spalla?


Shoulder is almost completely unpadded & shirred. Not as nice as the La Spalla, but still pretty cool. Will try to get some pics soon.
