  • Epaulet x Styleforum Alpine Loden Collection

    Loden wool, woven in Tirol for centuries, is known for its resistance to cold and wetness. Our project in collaboration with Epaulet introduces Alpine Loden, a modern 18oz fabric blend of 75% merino wool and 25% nylon, woven in Italy. It's lighter, more durable, wind-resistant, and more comfortable than traditional Loden fabric. Partnering with Rochester Tailored Clothing, we offer custom garments like sportcoats, suits, and overcoats, made to your specifications. Learn more about the Loden collection here.

    Need some fitting advice

    Hello all, First of all, i want to apologize in advance for the dirty mirror and a little bit messy room. I'm fairly new to classic menswear and i need some help. This is my father's dark green DB suit from the 90's. Do you think the low lapel height is something that i shouldn't consider wear...

    Shoulder Posture/Suit Jacket Fit

    My natural posture is shoulders pulled back, which causes my suit jacket enclosures to pull. It makes the jacket look too small, but chest/waist size is not the issue. I plan to order a custom Spier and Mackay suit soon. Am I correct that a negative shoulder slope for the jacket can help the fit...

    How does this tuxedo fit?

    I tried on the 40 at Spier and Mackay. Based on the photos, how is the fit? It looks to me like the shoulders might be slightly too big, or too padded? Basically, should I get it and tailor, or should I look elsewhere?

    Which Summer Suit

    Dear Community I have found these three summer suits, which one would you choose? I usually wear the trousers in a 34uk (needs to be made a few cm tighter) and the jacket in a 34/36uk (the Anton Meyer has the trousers available). Furthermore, I'm also sending a picture of an Anton Meyer suit I...

    Suit fit Advice

    Dear Community What should I change about this grey three-piece suit to make it look more classic and fit better (similar to the brown one)? Is it too short? (Is the blue blazer or the brown suit better in terms of length?) or what else could it be, would it be more classic if it had peak...

    Would I benefit from made to measure?

    Hello, I own a 38-85 Kamakura Tokyo Slim Fit dress shirt. My measurements are 93cm chest, 80cm waist, and 37.5cm neck. I find it fits me well everywhere except in the waist, which I think is a bit too billowy (see the picture). I want to buy a second shirt, so I'm wondering if I should just get...

    Jeans fitting

    Hey Forum. I've been wanting to get more intentional about my style for a while now. Today I had to go shop new jeans to replace my old broken ones and I thought I'm going to ask and find advice before I buy anything. I've always just bought jeans that feel good and look reasonable. I tried...

    What's wrong with my MTM suit jacket?

    Dear forum members, I'm seeking some advice on what might be wrong with my MTM suit jacket. To my opinion it opens up too much to the front at the front-bottom. At first the waist seemed to be too small, but even though this has been enlarged now, the issue persists. I'm pretty sure the waist is...

    Do these shirts look too big, or is that what they are supposed to look like?

    The other day I was scrolling through instagram and I came across a lot of asian celebrities / models( 1 2 3 4) wearing clothes that fit completely differently from what was recommended on the internet in general and are basically breaking every single fashion rule that is advocated on the...

    Advice on issues with my Balmain Biker Jeans

    I recently bought a pair of used Balmain Biker Jeans (S4HT500B406V) in size 29. They are made of 100% cotton, made in Italy and come with Lampo zippers. My issue is that they are a little too tight in the thigh and crotch area, but also a little too loose in the waist. I'm not able to properly...

    Does this suit fit me? Spier & Mackay Neo Cut Contemporary

    Hi all! I'm very new here :) I recently bought a navy suit from Spier & Mackay, largely based off of their positive reviews on this forum. The suit is size 38R and I opted for the contemporary cut rather than slim. I've attached some photos of me wearing the unaltered suit. Can you comment on...

    Fit Advice - Revamping My Wardrobe

    Now that I've stopped growing vertically, I thought it was time I revamp some parts of my wardrobe. I think I have a good idea of which pieces have gotten too small, but sometimes it's hard to tell how something fits because I've worn the same clothes for many years now. My main concern is a lot...

    Jacket fit

    Hello! First post here. I believe this is the right section but feel free to redirect me if it's not. I'm looking for an unstructured jacket and found this one which I like. I'm hesitant between size 50 and 52, as the difference is minimal. Also any comment on the fit in general? Please...

    How does the fit on these leather suspenders look?

    I recently got two pairs of leather suspenders that I ordered from a small company that makes leather goods, and was wondering about how they fit. I was trying to compare both to the images on their site as well as other photos of men in suspenders, but wasn't sure mine fit quite right or not...

    Suitsupply MTM fit check

    Hi guys :) Just took delivery og this new MTM suit from SuSu a couple of days ago. All measurements have been done by myself (due to SuSu not having any physical stores in my country) so I’m very curious as to what the outside world thinks. Is it a keeper or am i way off in terms of fit? I...
