I'm about a 28&quot; waist, and a 36&quot; chest. I don't know anyone that does OTR 8 inch drops.. I only know a few that do 7&quot;, (hickey., which does not exist anymore, and a few italian brands). I'm buying a suit tomorrow.. looking for a 3 piece, ~1500 dollars, all season suit. I live in NYC, and plan on going up 5th Ave tomorrow. Many of the stores are off on sales already. Pick 2 spots where I have to absolutely check out (I'm partial to zenga or rlbl currently). 7+ inch drops are a plus for me, and sales even more so.

I'm 28 years old and wear suits daily for work. I wear BBBF, Theory, and custom suits from Asia. In need of a &quot;respectful&quot; suit.

Don't know about a size 36 but in higher sizes Zegna Milano often starts are drop 7.

But three piece at a discount? You're just making life hard on yourself.
