Did they recently update the trouser configurator on their website? Seems like they've added some new fits to choose from, but some things have been removed. Can't find the options anymore regarding trouser lining, bracer buttons or some of the length options (raw length). Hope they still have those options available in store.

Hi, did anyone get the Gurkha shorts from last year? They look great and someone I know is selling it - but measurements are now unavailable online.
I'm usually a size 30 to 31 waist - should I get a 46 or 48? Any in-person pics would be great.
Finally, what was the recommended retail price for them? I'm trying to agree a price with the guy.
Thanks!

I own a pair of Gurkhas. Searched for this pic several ages ? I‘m as well a size 30/31 and have these in 46. I really love them, fits perfect to polo‘s , casual shirts but a basic white shirt is as well doing the thing

Thanks, they look great! Would you say 48 would be too big for you or still ok, given you have a 46? Turns out the guy has a 48 for sale, I could tailor them of course if the difference isn't too much. Thanks!

Honestly, gentlemen, if y'all need any Suitsupply accessories - sunglasses, gloves, belts, suspenders -- the first day of last two outlets these can be had for like 75%. I really went to town in this category last time, and these items are great value at this price point. So, wait for the, most likely, July outlet if you need these.

Jep. I got Peccary gloves for 45 euros and they are very nice. Which is a price where you cannot find them elsewhere.

Anglo-Italian seems to pick stitch the dart too. Is this a new thing? Increased sprezz cred?

I actually stumbled upon an old Neapolitan suit I have in my closet and was slightly horrified to see (for the first time) that it has pick stitching on the dart. Suit is from NSM. I should probably check to see if my other coats have it.

I’m going to probably get a MTM suit from
Susu and I’m debating doing their closer pick stitch option, but they seem to pick stitch everything, so I might do none which is kind of a bummer unless I just accept the extra sprezz.

This is my suit below. I didn't even notice the pick stitching until I made that joke. I just took a look at my other NSM garments and they also have pick stitching along the dart, although my Solito coats don't. It may be dependent on the company, rather than the region (i.e., not all Neapolitan companies do it).

I think it's subtle enough that it doesn't bother me, but if given a choice, I would go without.

Suit below was commissioned in 2013, IIRC. Details are "house style" since I didn't ask for the dart to be pick stitched.

I have a feeling lll end up just getting the pick stitch, but I agree it would be preferable to me without it on the dart.

I think it's around 2 a year the last 10 years , so yes quite a few.

Hi guys does anyone know what the red line means for the Sienna suit line

And what are your thoughts on the jackets with 2 pockets on 1 side?

Looking at this suit
