BlackLapel.com - any experience with them? - Page 10

The shoulders look too square, which maybe he was hinting at.

The suit pants look flawed, but from that one picture, specifics are hard to say. More importantly, even accounting for the low-rise pants, the jacket is too short in the back. Therefore it is unwearable.

I figured i'd just add my suit here for critique instead of starting a new thread. I just got it yesterday and it's still a bit wrinkly. I feel like the shoulders are a touch big, the pants a bit tight and the shirt a bit tight in the stomach. The sleeves of the jacket might be a bit too long as well. I'm not much of a suit wearer so i don't really know what to look for. Sorry for the crappy camera pics. Oh the suit is 'tailored' fit. Any noticeable problems?

I've ordered a few suits from these guys.

 

For the price they are pretty good as long as you know exactly what you want with regards to fit. 

 

Material is a bit "flimsy" which I think causes the double vents to flare out a bit but - again, for the price - I am satisfied.

 

My approach is a bit different though. I am buying them inexpensively as "fashion" suits (i.e. but pretty slim) so I'm not worried about holding on to these long term as "investment pieces" seeing as styles will change regardless.
