http://www.peterchristian.co.uk/Cata...ats/Chino-Suit Plus, what do you think about their stock, in general? I feel they fall into the well built but slightly over-sized, old person category?

Look at the styling on their site. They make clothes for people who think this is how one ought to dress -- "slightly over-sized, old person" is probably accurate.

Brilliant photography, can hardly make out any detail on the suit. To further emphasize this feature, the model places his hands to block out the buttons and prevent anyone from seeing how the jacket naturally falls around the chest etc. In fact, it looks like he's compressing a sack jacket with his elbows to make it look more waisted

you can add 'middle aged people with no taste, who have no cash to buy a good suit- and only really need the suit for a more adult version of 'prom' if you are considering purchasing something from here- don't, save up a little bit more and buy something proper also don't buy something online unless you 100% know what you're looking for- even if they have a good returns policy you probably don't have the cash to order 6 suits and pick the best fitting one. Go to a shop, try on some brands, find a brand that suits you (remember the name of the cut) and then find one on ebay. Do not buy anything from here
