Dude, this is the most ridiculous question I've ever heard of - no offense, but this is quite literally like which chick is hottest? an 8, an 8, or a 10.
If you have the means, patience, and tailor in your area, bespoke is the obvious choice - true bespoke.
That said, the 10 isn't available in SF, so you gotta decide on an 8. If it was me, I'd go to wilkes, which is having a sale right now, get something off the peg, get it altered, be done with it. Sometimes, good enough is good enough - yes, its not bespoke, and bespoke is better, but if the 10 is a long distance relationship which no prospect, you gotta pick the best available.
If you want to spend a boatload more, MTM at wilkes can't be bad. MTM at department stores isn't going to be cheap, but thats the nature of the game. MTM Isaia or off the peg Kiton is a tough call - ill give you that. I suppose you should go with the one that fits better which would be Isaia, but damn, some of those kiton fabrics are just pure money.
