Thanks for everyone’s input on Steed recently. I met with them this week and commissioned a 2pc MTM suit, 3r2 with patch pockets so the jacket works as a separate, in brown fresco (510263, which looks much better in person than in the website picture).

Excited to see how it comes out!

Where did you do the consult? What is the price range?

A couple of LL cloths in progress with Kotaro / Corcos

Also just received a finished Steed suit in LL nailhead that is killer. Pictures to come

Very very nice. Love the chest and shoulder lines. Very clean. May be the angle, but I may have preferred an inch of length on the coat. I had to push them to make a slightly longer coat for me

Hi, probably the angle show the jacket shorter that it's. The length of the jacket ends at the height of my knuckles which is the right. I am going to post a pic that show the front of the jacket. Thanks a lot for your words.

Just commissioned my first suit from Davide Taub at Gieves (he’s made me a couple of coats).

Caccioppoli cloth (a textured soft grey/black cotton). Two buttoned, two piece, notch lapels and flat-fronted trousers to be cut quite slim for parties/clubs. Trousers with belt loops to be wearable separately.
