Yeah. Well. I'm going to get two more pieces before leaving Seoul. Don't know that they'll let me order from them remotely though, even after they get my pattern down. I asked and the son seemed a bit reluctant about the whole thing.

But I really like B&T's cut. I think the only tailor I'd leave them for (if I could afford it, of course) would be, fittingly, Liverano.

Green tie, green watch strap, an Aussie with the green jacket last year and the Masters to come in a few days. Not bad.

You gotta break out your driver against Stitch. He's got a following round here that would make a 90's boy band jealous

Previous tailor. Last thing they made before switching.


they did a damn good job, that is excellent. and you paired it sublimely.

Am I right, @Cleav
? :cheers:  


Indeed you are my friend.

Arguably the best ever, Jack Nicklaus said-

If you'd asked me at 30 where I'd be during the Masters when I was 46, I'd have pictured myself on a boat fishing, smoking a cigar, drinking a mint julep and watching it on television.
(after winning the 1986 Masters at age 46)

Awesome!

In case anyone is reading this who doesn't have a super slim physique...the suit I'm wearing above is tailored for my 47" chest, 39" waist, 42" hips. At 6'2" 220 lbs, I'm definitely not a great candidate for "slim fit" but it can be done.

Edited the OP & exchanged Pingson's pic for one of Vox's (to prevent claims of unjust advantages given a fellow Swede).
