Thanks for sharing, If I could turn back time I would have gotten the pink herringbone one which I have seen in real life and it was nice.

I would of course wear this as informal or separates. I will judge when it arrives hehe.
Yes, I think that suit would only really work as separates (if it ever arrives).

I ordered that too! Still hasn't been cancelled, though. Strange the system allows multiple orders of the same item. I believe there was only one of that suit.

You got my suit!!!:butbut: (Just kidding)
Probably the website isn't updated immediately when someone purchases the last item. When did you order it?

(PS. let me know if you're not keeping it)

I see that the Havana DB linnen tuxedo is available and sold as separates. Anyone have anything to say about this piece?
I bought the jacket and linen trousers.

It's a match and I think will work as an alternative to wool. Though being linen, it's not as smooth as cotton, wool or silk

I couldn't pull this up on the US site. A few questions:

- How are much are they selling it for at outlet price and the original price?
- Is it goodyear welted?

I see a couple of premium models in the US site only discounted about 50% and they are sitting.

Love the lapel width

I guessed you were the one because I went there and they told me a guy bought the whole outlet and returned it :D

Extra Edit: Alterations count as regular sales and items per customer, so if you go there and do an alteration without buying anything you wreck their daily average. Which I think it was around 2750 SEK per customer? The target. And 1.6 items per customer.

Former US Susu employee here, from what I remember, alterations didn't count towards IPC. It's been a couple years since I worked there, but I think our goal was set at 2 items per customer and the per customer goal was between $400-$500 USD.

That seems like a completely flawed system. The local staff gets no benefit from all the online sales, but get hit with a penalty on returns? This is perhaps why, in the U.S. at least, they have moved to a "final sale" approach, to prevent people from returning large quantities of items.

By the way, does anyone know what SuitSupply does with returns of custom made items? Do they leave enough allowances, to reconfigure it for a regular sale?

In the US, we never got hit with penalty on items purchased online that were returned in-store. But US employees do earn commission (not the most rewarding system, first $20k in sales of the month there's no commission), so that would be extremely unfair if they were hit with a penalty.

Thanks for sharing! This was in the end of 2019 for me and also in Europe! Glad to see there’s some buffer for you guys!

Am I late to the party, or did they recently add an Extended Length option for custom made coats on the website? They add an additional 25cm for $25.
