So I took some better pics of my 38R Napoli. Pants were hemmed, otherwise no alterations were made. I am interested in your thoughts, I (in my limited experience) am very happy with the purchase. (1 of my sleeves is slightly bunched up, disregard my right cuff).

Here's 38R Havana with no alterations.
I like the fit of the Sienna posted above - very nice.

I am debating between going with Kent Wang MTM or SuitSupply MTM. My understanding is that the SuitSupply MTM suits are fully-canvassed, like the Kent Wang. Can anyone confirm this?

They are.

Thanks. Now I am leaning in the direction of Suit Supply, since I can get measured in-person, and don't have to deal with shipping.

Off the rack the suits priced at 769 are half canvassed. The Jort at 999 full canvassed. I didn't know they had mtm. Would of been nice seeing I spent 130 in alterations on the Jort in store.

From their RTW line, all the suits are half-canvassed save for the Jort model.

In their MTM line, all the suits are fully canvassed.

On twitter https://twitter.com/MrSuitsupply Suitsupply announced:
Exciting news! Our North American expansion continues! We wanted to let all of our awesome followers know that we’ll be opening in Atlanta, Philadelphia, and Toronto in early 2013.

Quote from this interview from 2011 with Fokke de Jong:

On the difference between the U.S. and European markets: There’s probably going to be a lot of difference between the U.S. and Europe markets. We already see a difference in fits, in Europe it’s still much slimmer than the U.S.

Which suits would you most recommend?

I'm looking for a nice three-piece suit but could also try others? Pictures would also be appreciated. Thanks !!

Since it is all one brand the more expensive models will have nicer materials and construction. Jort is their high end but it is not a 3 piece. You should be more concerned with the specific style and fit of each model range ie. Washington is their trendiest with peak lapels and slimmest fit with loud patterns thou nice I would not wear that for a conservative interview. I think you should look at the pictures and decide the intent of your suit.
