    Suitsupply NYC

    This is just a random comment but does anyone feel like on their website, some of the models are wearing suits that don't fit them? One guy's jacket waist is too tight (evidenced by the X of the pulled fabric), another guy clearly had a jacket that was obviously too short, and on half these...

    Anyone know anything about "Baroni" Suits? Vs Suitsupply

    I've never worn or seen one, so I couldn't tell you, but you can always try searching this website for people who have had experiences with them, or the internet at large. Are they fully canvassed? If so, all other things being equal, that would tip the scales in favor of Baroni, because...

    Anyone know anything about "Baroni" Suits? Vs Suitsupply

    I'm pretty sure I remember hearing that higher wool # = more delicate/higher maintenance. 150 vs 110 is irrelevant; the best suit is the one that fits best. What are you tailoring? Just letting fabric in/out at the sleeves/waist or getting pants hemmed is fairly trivial (I just had pants let...

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    Hi to any tailors: If the lapel on a suit is bowing slightly (i.e., not lying flat against the chest) is this because 1) there's not enough room in the chest OR 2) The collar is too long Are either of these things something a tailor could fix inexpensively?

    WTB: Charcoal gray or navy suit, 38R, 33W pants

    Hi, I was looking for a charcoal gray or navy suit, preferably fully canvassed, (half-canvassed might be ok if it's nice enough). Can be new with tags, new without tags, or pre-owned in great condition. Solid, herringbone, mini-check and other subtle patterns are okay. No plaid or windowpane...

    Did I overpay?

    Yeah, the Corneliani Trend and CC (half-canvassed) are their budget end suits, they are generally ~$500. Mainlines brand new can be 750-1200. Given the age of this suit, it probably was overpriced by about 20% but hey, it was a yolo purchase haha Thanks for all the advice guys, I'll see how it...

    Did I overpay?

    So I bought a pre-owned Corneliani Linea Sartoria suit off eBay for ~$260. 1) The seller is reputable (100% positive feedback) 2) The measurements match mine exactly. 3) I *think* these retail for ~$1600 brand new? 4) It says no defects, flaws, etc. 5) 30 day return policy, so it's easy to...
