Ok, I just got my first TaT suit and had it pressed, and it's very impressive for a first order. It's almost perfect, there's only two things; it looks like there might be is a bit of a rumple behind the collar, but it's hard to tell just looking in the mirror. The other thing is the left sleeve has a what looks like a bit of a sleeve pitch issue. Pants will be good too, they need to lengthened about a 1/2 or 3/4", and the sleeves could probably be lengthened a bit. Next time, I'm going to ask for the armholes to be even higher.
I'll post pictures for critique as soon as I get the chance.

Just got my first TaT suit in. Its a 2 button dark gray conservative cut. The suit itself looks fantastic and I can't rate Jason highly enough. I went down to LA and had him measure me himself. Its also got a killer deep red lining. I'm interested in critique on alterations for this guy and what to do different next time. I've got some ideas but i'll leave it unbaised

that fit is bad news bears. the rise on those pants is way too low in comparison with the jacket, the pants fit horribly otherwise as well. way too much hip flare. moreso than i've ever had with japanese repro denim.

Almost every measurement is off. This suit would need some serious tailoring or maybe you can sell it and try to get the fit better next time.

Just wanted to say that I took my first TaT suit to Hamza Simrick in D.C. (Savile Row Tailor, has written textbooks on tailoring) and he was really really impressed by Get Smart's work, especially considering I just measured myself and sent him my measurements. Just thought it was pretty high praise coming from a guy who knows his ****, and I wanted to give my thanks again to GS. He worked with me even though I wanted a really off the wall fitting suit and considering this is my first suit I've purchased, the fit is perfect.

Thanks again man, and keep it up. I'll be hitting you up for a second suit in a couple of months.

Yes, Google Checkout will send you an email saying that your order has shipped. There is no shipping tracking, but I live on the East Coast and have found that my orders arrive 4-5 days after receiving the email.

I will vouch for Jason staying behind his product. His patience and ability to diagnose issues are excellent. His customer service skills are tops in the business and he will always work with you to ensure you are satisfied. I have a weird shoulder that is causing me issues (one shoulder is more hollow than the other) and Jason has been excellent in terms of helping me get things resolved.
