Assuming MTM, what makers should I look at?

[Justins123]

I've been reading through tons of threads and even though I've gained quite a bit of knowledge, I have a few questions regarding an upcoming suit purchase.

I'm 5'7", 145lbs with an athletic build. I don't have particularly wide shoulders, but my chest is large given my size and I have slopping shoulders. Having tried on several different jackets, I'm somewhere between a 36s and 38s.

Given all this, and the jackets I've tried off the rack, I'm planning on going MTM. Can you guys help point me towards particular brands? I want a fairly fashion-forward look. At the very least I prefer a slim suit and flat front pants. I'm also thinking natural shoulders and peaked lapels. I'd prefer to keep the cost around $2000, but I'm open to other options.

Who should I look at? What should I be looking for given my size and shape?

Thanks in advance!

I`m not sure of the exact model, but they have very fashion forward suits with peaked lapels, with a silouette that fits well for athletic build men (slim athletic and not bulky). The pants are flat front and very slim like designer trousers.

I am not sure if they sell it in the U.S. as it seems that the pictures I`ve seen on this board and others seem to be more like an American cut or something.

what ever you choose in styling. remember to let person measuring know all of the fitting problems you have, what you do and dont like about the suit you are wearing to the measureing session. let be the suit that fits the best. put it all down on paper before you go so that you dont forget.
