Hi,

I am in the market for a new suit.
I have heard a lot of great thing about thickasthieves, are there any other recommendations? I do like the modern cut suits better, like the ones from armani, dior, etc.

I've ordered a number of shirts and jackets from them, and I've had no problems unrelated to my own errors in measurement.

You'll want to post your price point. Thick as Thieves is an aberration. The cheapest I've ever seen a Made to Measure (MTM) suit is TAT, but outside of that it was for a poorly fitting Brooks Brothers 346 (their lower line) MTM for $630. Otherwise you'll be paying at least $800 iirc. You're a 34 (right?) which is going to be even harder for you. Most MTM places don't go below a 38 and if you're lucky you could find a 36.

And this is a random question - do you live in Iowa? I know the kids these days throw their area code in their names sometimes.
