Do any of you adjust the way that you stand or sit to improve your suit's appearance? I almost subconsciously at this point do that. On some of my mtm suits the sleeve pitch is off so when I will be standing talking with somebody I stand with my arms more forward. Also if a particular shirt's sleeves are a bit short I am constantly yanking them down to show cuff, or standing with my arms folded. Also, if i have a suit with the dreaded collar gap I will stand more erect. Am I just a nut, or do some of you have similar behaviors?

How do you prefer trousers to be finished?

  • Plain hem

  • Cuffed (1.5 inches or less)

  • Cuffed (more than 1.5 inches)

  • No preference, as long as the proportions work
