New Bespoke Jacket - Any Comments?

[Mac]

Then the only problem is the divots and overall length.

I look forward to seeing more photos!

I wouldn't mess with the breast pocket or the length as they both look spot on to me from this picture. Also, from this photo alone it does not look as though you need the sleeves let out although the divoting is a problem.

Would also love to know who made it...

Yes, agreed. I'll post several more shots when the jacket has been fixed to my satisfaction. But not bad so far, and I'm confident the tailor can make these minor revisions with ease.

Grey Poupon, if you don't want to openly say who made it for you, you can PM other members who are asking.

So since our opinions differ on how I like the cut of suits, I'm a troll? I was merely pointing out that the lines should be clean and giving a picture for an example.

No it's not your opinions that make you a troll, it's the way you express them. Scroll up and read your posts.

OP, don't listen to Mac.

I agree that there are slight divots on the shoulders. ruh roh! Seriously though, it's a minor detail.

If you're buying a bespoke jacket, it should be perfect. Don't make do because SF told you to not bother your tailor.

Not really, and I actually think it is a huge issue. Hopefully it's an easy enough fix for OP's tailor, but I find it quite surprising how many MTM and bespoke jackets (including my Chans) have these divot problems while a well-fitting RTW can easily avoid this problem.

I agree - certainly an issue that needs to be corrected. And I'm been assured that it shall be.

I call it a minor issue because it's not very drastic and I don't think it's visible all of the time. That said, if I had a bespoke jacket with divots I'd be pissed.
