Hey Guys,

I live in Noho and I came across a new shop called Louis Purple recently. I think it is on Mulberry or Lafayette Street & Houston.
I talked to the shop keeper and they have apparently been around since April 2011.
Their off-the-rack products look really good to me but I am more interested into tailored garments due to my built. (Size 48 for jackets, 33 for trousers...)

i am not a big fan of their website www.louispurple.com but their have a lot of good reviews here and there on the web. I've read only good things about them.
Bottom-line, I was wondering if any of you gentleman already gave it a try and if yes, what was the outcome.
If I don't get any replies, I will give it a try anyway and rate it myself because their made to measure, with Dormeuil or Loro Piana fabric suit run around 1000$ fully customized, which seems to be a really good deal to me!
The guy who runs the shop was really helpful and willing to help. He gave me a lot of useful insight even though I know exactly what I am looking for when it comes to suits!

Thank you in advance to share your experience if you've tried them out...

Suit up!
Josh.
