Hey guys,

I'm new to the forum, signed up because I'm seeing a lot of differing reports on bespoke tailors online. I've seen indo chino ads online but a friend recommended I use www.knotstandard.com as he had a few shirts and loved them....they have a nice site, and seem legit but it's a new concept where you measure yourself... has anyone used this service? Reputable?

I'd really like more info on their risk free gaurantee if anyone's tried that?

thanks a bunch,

Evan

Firstly, a suit ordered online is not bespoke, it is made to measure at best.

Secondly, I would not buy anything from a company that has shills like you sign up to forums to post links to their website. You are at least the third person in the past week who has signed up solely to spam for 'Knot Standard'.

Hey Sanguis,

I don't work for them at all.. I actually have no idea between bespoke and made to measure...just got my first job where I'm required to wear suits and am new to the game. I went ahead and bought a suit from them though 2 weeks ago after good advice on another forum instead of jabs and insults here?

I got a navy standard....apparently the first and "most important addition to any man's wardrobe" and I love it.... before this week I had never worn brown shoes with a blue suit....I'm hooked.

Considering they ask you to measure yourself and claim bespoke it starts off bad. They call jacket vents flaps. :embar: They don't mention anything about the materials other then the colour.

Be very afraid.

We're back in the mode of silly first posts. Use the search function, when you do not find this outfit, draw the obvious conclusion.


Or are you are troll?
