Hey all, need your advice again on suit critique. So I ended up ordering a 38R Napoli navy from SuitSupply. Came in today (1 business day shipping, really happy tbh) but unfortunately the suit is not a great fit off the rack. So I again need your critique!
Here's what I can tell
Please offer me your critiques and advice. Would it be too expensive/too much work to get this jacket and pant fitting properly by a tailor? Should I try the Lazio (slim fit) 38R instead? I'm only 5'9" but have relatively wide shoulders for my height, so it's tough to find a good mix of slim/form fitting and not too tight around the upper chest and shoulders - for all clothes unfortunately, not just suits.
Thanks in advance!
Here's what I can tell
- Sleeves need to be shortened (the shirt im wearing also needs to be shortened, was gonna take it to a tailor w the suit)
- Length needs to be shortened significantly. Kind of afraid this will mess up the proportions of the jacket?
- Jacket needs to be taken in perhaps? A lot of extra space around the chest to point where if I stand still with my arms down, the jacket still juts out a bit by the lapels
- Pants need to be hemmed ofc
- Pants are wide and not form flattering, need to be taken in quite a bit. Not sure if it's just me but feels like a lot of extra fabric everywhere.

) but an associate ended up helping me and a 38R lazio seemed to be a good fit. I'll post some fit pics tonight or tomorrow but overall it seems good.
