Last week was a hard week in my life. Waking up to the warm May morning in the Midwest, realizing I'm very close to 25 and my life isn't quiet right. Thinking the last 24 years have been just a bad dream, I opened my closet and realized something.... my suit favorite suit my navy pinstripe suit (I work in the image consulting and use my pinstripe suit for important meetings and personal fittings) was destroyed by a out of town dry cleaner after a accident on a plane.

Missing my favorite suit I decided to reach out to my normal clothier, after having a deep discussion on what I really want out of my next suit we decided his normal run of suits wouldn't fit the more fun approach I wanted to take. I'm a former pro athlete (combat sports) with a very small but shapely build, 37 inch chest, 28 inch waist and 37 inch hips 5'9", I decided on a fully canvased 2B, Wide peak three piece suit. I'll be posting about the process and the service I received, I'll also do a in-depth review of the clothing received over the next few weeks.

I'm looking forward to documenting the next few weeks!! Pictures to come soon!

I was actually considering the exact same lining when I commissioned by most recent MTM. I wonder if we went to the same place.

Could be! More likely using the same mills or mtm company! Unless you where in Kansas City!
