I am looking to revamp my suiting collection, I have a fairly normal body (6' 180 lbs. athletic) so have always gone OTR with minor alterations (zegna and isaia while on sale). I am exploring what I would consider semi-custom as an option, the tailor travels to you, presents their various fabrics and options, does your measurements onsite, then sends out for the suit to be made. You then have a fitting, again with him in person and alterations are made if needed. While not exactly custom, it also seems a bit more involved then the mail in 'mtm' many are providing now online.
I was curious to get opinions as to if this would likely be better than going OTR? I cannot afford full custom, these suits would likely run me around $1500 (maybe slightly less depending on materials), and anything specific to ask this tailor in terms of the manufacturing?
Thanks much
