^^ agreed. As a skinny guy I can attest that the soho will look good. It's one of the only fits that I didn't have to size down in

I just assumed it was the same as the full suit, so if you check out the size adviser for the suit it gives you more measurements than the jacket one.

Yes, the Sienna has nicer fabrics and hand attached shoulders, which really make a difference. I work in one of the most conservative sectors in the most conservative city, and I can tell you that literally no one gives a **** about whether your suit has a ticket pocket or not. They've got more important things on their mind. Sometimes SF over-thinks things. 


It's very interesting that you say that, because I thought the exact same thing. Then I tried on the Sienna I ordered for a few of my friends and each of them (separately) said "what's up with that extra pocket?" I doubt it's the end of the world, but I'm at an entry level and don't want to raise any eyebrows, or even risk it.

I rethought my London blue plain that I have and I think I am going to send it back. The fit is exactly what I'm looking for, but I think the navy is just too dark (it almost looks black in some light). I wish they made a slightly lighter navy or a medium to dark grey in the London

Suitsupply says the Sienna fabrics work best for "occasional wearing." Does anyone know what this means? Twice per week? Twice per month? Twice per year? Has anyone worn through the seat of their pants yet?

that was my issue with it too. i LOVED the cut and it fit me great but the color was just too dark. really unfortunate there arent more colors in the london cut. i was told by my SA that they are getting more.

What did you end up getting instead? (if anything). And I guess I'll wait for a bit, although I probably need to have something by September 1 or so

i was buying a tux for my wedding.

i had read through this thread that the london had a lower buttoning point so when i was in the store shopping i checked it out as well.

my brothers were getting suits and both went with napolis.

Hey guys - I've been looking for a double breasted SC for a bit, and I've been following this thread. I don't have any experience with Suit Supply, since they haven't yet opened a store in the backwaters of Canada. Anyone have any experience with the Soho blue plain cotton/linen DB blazer? Is $149 the regular price or is that discounted? I'll be in NYC in a month, so my preference would be to wait and try it on in person (I'm tough to fit OTR). But if that's a limited-time deal, I'd look to order it online. Cheers.

I ordered one of their cheaper dress shirts just to see how they are quality wise for the price. Obviously I doubt they will be the same as my beloved Borelli's but still interested in seeing how they are.

On second thought, thoughts on a fall/rain jacket? Do I go with the trench coat, or the other jacket?

Their dress shirts are seriously not worth the full price, so many better options. For 25 euros on sale though? Yes!

I'm wondering if you would recommend the suitsupply trousers? What's the quality like? I'm looking for some slimfit trousers with a narrower hem width...

I think the Sienna has a slightly thinner fabric, with a higher S number, and may wear out faster than the more workhorse fabrics like the Napoli has. Probably just don't wear it weekly.

$149 is the discount price. I think they were $399 before.

First one looks like it could be worn to work, second is casual only.

Trousers are the same as the suits, and we obviously have bought a few of those.

ugh, i'm having an absolute horrid time with suitsupply giving me $$ back on refunded orders... does it always take them 10+ days to process a refund?

I have something that I was promised a refund on almost 2 months ago. I've called twice and have an e-mail confirmation that my product was to be refunded to me within 10 business days.
It's well past that mark and I have not received a refund for my order yet. What is going on????


So much stress... anything I can do other than issue a chargeback?
