    MTM or OTR

    Yeah-- so I tried a couple of MTM places online that I found in other threads, and none can deliver by May 31. So, I went to BB store, asked another associate who seemed to be better educated, and he said everything would be fine. The only difference is that the shirt will no longer be non-iron...

    44L, now what?

    Is it worthwhile to look at suits with a larger waist and have a tailor take it in? I got my eye on this one... 38"waist... http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-2009-ERMENEG...item5ad424802c

    44L, now what?

    Hello. I am looking to buy a nice suit. I am a 44L, with a 34" waist. When I go on ebay to look for a nice suit, all the waist sizes are 38-40" What should I do??? Also, when I pick out a nice suit on brooksbrothers or Hickey Freeman website, they do not even ask me for my waist size.....
