Hi All -
Long-time lurker and have enjoyed this site for awhile. I'm hoping people can help me out with a specific question I have.
So far I've been purchasing several OTR suits (Canali, Corneliani, an Ermenegildo Zegna, and some Suit Supply) with some success, but I recently lost my tailor (who was very good) and would like to try either bespoke or made to measure suits. I wear a 46 jacket with a 32-33 waist, so almost nothing off the rack works and even with suits with an 8 drop my tailor had to recut the pants and basically work miracles to get things to fit.
I would appreciate recommendations for anyone in Chicago who can make full-canvassed suits (either MTM or bespoke) for under $1500-2000 per suit. I'm looking for something on the level of Canali or Corneliani but cut well to my body type. I have tried new tailors and am growing tired of their getting things wrong or whining about how difficult it is to tailor OTR suits to my body type. (Which may well be true, I suppose!)
Thanks.
