Hi everybody,
I am looking forward a blue suit in the color range as below.
I am in love with peak lapels but I found recently this Vitale Barberis Canonico S150 Revenge that feels amazing
Which one do you think is better or fits me better?
BTW for your information the one on the left and the right is a Washington fit and a Jort fit from Suitsupply.
Curios to know!
Matt

I think of blue as a more casual suit, so I like the one on the right with the patch pockets

Both look like they might have minor sleeve issues (and the Washington looks snug), but the Jort is definitely the better of the two (both in terms of construction and how it looks on you. If you are looking for something more business-like, I'd suggest either the La Spalla or the Lazio fits; the peak lapels rule out Washington and the patch pocket's rule out Jort. If you are looking for a more casual suit, Jort is definitely the way to go, as depending on the fabric, it could easily double as a jacket worn with gray trousers or cotton slacks.

do you think I should consider MTM as well?
Also what do you think about this one in comparison to the Jort?
This one is cotton 100%. I think I prefer wool overall despite cotton can be very nice.

The one on the right looks better.

It might be the camera angle but those peaked lapels seem really high.
