Tan cotton solaro shouldn't be too hard to find. Where will you have it made?

I would probably go with sb (just makes more sense for this casual type of suit, I think), two or three patch pockets.

Thank you for the responses.

I live in Japan, and will have this made to measure place make the suit. It will be my first experience with this place.


Unfortunately, I am not a fan of patch pockets. I think I will probably go with something like the attached.
