Full Leg Suit Trouser

[PDandG]

I have the same long torso shorter leg build.

O'Connell's Clothing carries Hertling made trousers in a straight full cut and a high rise. They even have a long rise if the regular isn't enough for you.

Regular is 12 inch rise, long is 13 inch rise.

Right. So where do I buy?

If you're a size 40 or 46 suit, you could start here:

It's hard to tell exactly how the stuff fits, since it can be pinned in a million different ways for the photos. The suit not displayed on a model, though, doesn't appear to have the wider leg trouser.

And here's another potential source:

I can't tell if those suits are true three-buttons of if they are a three-roll-two and whomever dressed the models for the shoot was just a clueless idiot.

You get the point.

Any idea what the style number is for the various full legged suits in the photos you posted? I promise I will stop nagging you after this.

RL has always been too tapered below the knee for me. Looking for a flared bottom or at least straight.

I don't know what their trouser styles are like now that they've moved suit production from Italy (by Corneliani, primarily) back to the US (by Hickey Freeman).

However, RL Polo "blue label" suits come in a variety of styles. I've got some with slim trousers, and I've got several with more generous, straight leg trousers.

One of the straighter-leg trousers is flat-fronted, another two pairs have pleated fronts.

If you identify which styles/blocks/cuts by RL Polo have wider trousers, then you shouldn't have any problem tracking down a few suits in that style.

Sorry, mate. Can't help you. All of these are from a number of years ago. Don't really keep track of Tom Ford myself, so don't know what's available today.

If you've got money for a Tom Ford suit, you should consider going MTM. It's a lot more hassle, but the quality is the same/better and, of course, you can specify exactly what you want.

Great advise!

Let's back up a sec: if you've got money for any MTM suit you can easily get the leg fitted differently from the stock pattern from the knee down. Can do that on a $1-2k MTM just as easily.
