In my experience, when I got my first suit I found plenty of reasons to pull it out of the closet. Depending on the color you get you can always just wear the jacket with a pair of jeans or just the pants with a shirt and tie.

At first I thought you said really "good" but I think young is a more appropriate description! I am 25 going on 16, though. At lease when I am 40 I'll look 30!

I've been following this thread for a while. Great suits; excellent price.

I just wanted to thank Jason for choosing not to make larger suits. Otherwise, I would be out a couple of grand$$$.

Got this about a couple weeks ago, thoughts on the fit? Clearly someone else taking the pictures would help but no one is around right now. I really like it but would like some other thoughts. Obviously, the shirt is just something I walk around the house in so ignore that aspect of it.

^ Can't really see anything in your photos.

Also tuck your shirt in, and wear a tie.

Jason, could you tell me what the maximum weight of fabric is that can be worked on to produce a sportcoat?

Jason, you probably get asked this question a lot lately but I just have to know:

are you planning to make any three pieces, or just regular separate vests, in the future?

+1

I'd like to know as well. Btw, met Jason in person in Pasadena...super friendly, very easy to deal with. Looking forward to getting my house cut midnight navy 2B soon!

the question is more like what max weight you can wear. Anything over 15oz imo is really heavy...13-15 is fairly heavy. If it's fabric it can be made into a jacket, the real question is if you'd want to wear it.

no 3 piece anytime soon, nor separate vests.
