For the record, I voted that "I like."
Does it feel tight to you? Did you maybe put on a few winter kilograms? If so, it might not be quite as tight if you shed a few of those.

I like the suit but for God's sake undo the top button of your shirt if you're going to wear it without a tie.

Do you take me for a red neck?

I would never wear it without a tie.


I feel tight at the armhole when I move my arm in front of me for exemple. I do not feel very confortable when I sit neither.

I am used to wear 52 and this one is a 50 (52 is a little bit to large at the level of the first button in general)

I think I will bring it back. I like the fabric and I got 65% off. What a pity.

Now, after my 12 too large suits, I have one too tight.

Hope that one day I will manage to choose the right size in the shop.

It is too tight. Look at the roping at the shoulder in relation to the perpendicular shoulder line -- that roping is supposed to be not as tight there.

First picture. Your left shoulder. Look at the "gap" between the roping and your actual body. That shouldn't be there. It's not meant to sit that way on your shoulder.
