Hello all. I recently purchased a Suit Supply lazio linen suit. Unfortunately, since it wasn't possible to let out the trousers in the smaller size 38R I had to size up to a size 40R. While this size does fit my waist/thighs, the jacket is about an inch too wide on the shoulders. Suitsupply recommended narrowing them, along with some other alterations, but I was wondering if it would be wiser to go with a specialist alterations tailor. From what I understand narrowing shoulders is a difficult job, and I wouldn't want SS to mess it up. On the other hand, their alterations tailor(s) will have more experience working with their cuts/fabrics, so maybe I should go with them on that basis.
I should add, I'm based in London, so my alternatives for tailoring would be Ramon Tailoring on Savile Row or those two Italian brothers working in Soho.
