    NEW MEMBER INQUIRIES & QUICK QUESTIONS- CLASSIC MENSWEAR: WK OF APR 27, 2015

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    Hi I tried out a suit in a store when I was visiting a town about 100km from where I live. The staff showed me this one and thought it suited me well (and so did I).
