Pronto Uomo Coture Suits...anyone have them?

Hi,

The only suit that fits me properly are Pronto Uomo Couture suits. I have a blue with pen stripe blue suit from them, 2 button, side vents.

One of the reasons why other suits don't fit properly on me is because my body is asymmetric. So i always have one side, where my right kidney are located, where the suit bends in ward. Kind of looks like a tight suit when i button it up, but it's not.

So anyone have these suits other than me? There is Pronto Uomo and then there's Pronto Uomo Couture, which is the higher end one, it's made in italy, and suits go for 500-600.

Thanks

I had a couple of these suits, years ago. Definately not worth $500-600. The reason they probably fit you is because they tend to be rather full.

I'd suggest talking to a tailor and seeing what he can do for you. A good tailor would be able to work with a decent RTW jacket and make it work for your body.

The WSJ tested out 10 or so suits for quality a couple of years ago. They made up these ripping tests. Well Pronto Uomo Couture suits ended being last

I have the charcoal model from last fall; it's very nice. I had it tailored and it fits almost exactly like one of the MTM orders I recently made. Just wait for the sale season to hit, I got mine for 50% off.
