Hey guys,

Does suitsupply do anything special for black friday? Have they done so in the past?

 

[TheSupplier]

They dont do anything special except for the outlet sale in July and Jan.

Is the outlet sale always confirmed for Jan or do they shift the dates around?

Hey all,

Vitale Barberis Canonico and Gladson (US rep for a bunch of top mills, ie. Hardy Minnis, VBC, Reda, E Thomas, Zegna, Carlo Barbera, etc.) are cohosting an event next Wednesday at Rizzoli in NoMad. Yoshimi Hasegawa, author on the tradition of bespoke tailoring across cultures, is wrapping her tour of Italian tailoring houses with the US release of "Italian Tailoring: A Glimpse into the World of Sartorial Masters". There's going to be a book signing, discussion, and presentation of some of the garments from the book.

I know SuitSupply does a bunch with VBC, so hoping this is of interest to this forum. I'm trying to rally a crowd, but I'm new to StyleForum, so please let me know if there's a better spot I should post this. Thanks!

Check out the event page here.

Does anyone own or has owned a Vicenza coat and can comment on the fit? I usually wear a 38R in suits and was wondering if I wanted to wear the coat over a suit, should I go for a 40R or stick with a 38R?

vicenza 100% go one size up

 

[TheSupplier]

I stick with the same size (38R) because I have short arms and generally need a 38S. When I sized up the arms were too long.

 

[zanci]

I am a perfect fit in 38R jort suits, (la spalla just doesnt fit as good as the jort)

The bleecker (I think so, not sure) is ok at the same size, but for vicenza I would size up if I had the chance.

I own a 38 vicenza, which works great, but the 40 would be better.

My arms are normal lenght, but I have broad shoulders.

Thanks for your insight! How would you say the shoulders are? I find that with padded shoulders, a 40R in other brands make the coat look completely too big for me. But I would hope that lightly padded or no padding would look okay in a 40R?

Cheers! What're the shoulders like on the coat?

 

[zanci]

Shoulders are tight . I prefer a looser fit for my overcoats. Its the last years cashmere coat

I'm fairly slim and had to move the buttons on the 38L, as well as a host of other tailoring conjurations. Regret not getting the 40L.

Is the outlet sale always confirmed for Jan or do they shift the dates around?

Pretty much always around 2nd or 3rd week in both January or July — has been as early as around the 7th and as late as the 20th in both months. Source: I would consider myself a Suitsupply outlet veteran at this point. Actually ignoring all Black Friday / Christmas sales and going all in in January.

Anyone own the Grey Check (P5572) or the Navy Check (P5568) suits in Lazio? Comments on longevity/comfort of the fabric and versatility in an office environment?

Also had a question about sizing - I bought both, in Lazio. It seems to fit me very well, in a size 38, but the pants on a 38 are too tight for me in the seat and require the seat to be let out, and I have to taper the legs to a more slim look.

Does anyone have a similar problem? Is there a cut of suit in those types of patterns that may be a little more slim so I don't have to spend $80-$100 tailoring the pants?

This year European Summer outlet was the modest of all outlets so far (poor selection of suit styles/colours). Also, I was really upset with their customer service. First, they confirmed me there will be an outlet, so I notified the SF crowd, later they advised me there won't be an EU outlet this year, and all of a sudden they opened it ..

Prices were not that good either and were much higher compared to their outlets from just a year before (considering suits and coats) .. I did end up buying some really good value casual shirts at about 28 EUR and some ties and pocket squares at 19 and 9 EUR though .. But hardly anyone is waiting for the outlet to buy accessories ..
