Given your size requirements I think your best bet is to see Mr. Neds for mtm. You should be able to get a suit right in that price range and it will fit.

You're 6'2" and need a size 34 suit? I think there is almost zero chance you will ever find that in RTW. Is that an extra long? I would think most 34 would be not just tiny but on the short side.

For affordable MTM, Mr. Ned is a good option. A basic suit from them would be around $800.

Agree on Mr. Ned. It might not be an "English cut" per se, but he can do things like ticket pockets, side vents, roped shoulders, etc. It might look a bit English.

It will fit you very well and come in under budget.

Do you mean 4'10"? If you're 5'10" and need a 34, you must be quite the beanpole. What do you weigh, 100 pounds?

You could try Yoox.com.

I didn't know that size 34 suits existed.

I;m selling one here, and I'm 6'1'' and this used to fit me perfectly: http://www.styleforum.net/showthread.php?t=100540 Roped shoulders and very clinched waist, I couldn't think of anything more English cut really. I find with most fashion houses they make their suits fit longer anyway, because most people who afford it are rather tall as it is.

I have 2 36 XXL suits that you can have for 350 a piece.

One is a solid navy and one is a brown with blue stripes flannel.

Chances are, at 6'2 he's going to need a 34L...definitely going to be difficult to find one OTR.

Good luck
