A tour would be a great idea. As you've seen from all the measurement questions here, there is quite a bit of uncertainty with the measuring process. Having Jason measure customers himself should in theory correct many of the problems we are having on first batch orders. Additionally, being able to see fabric swatches in person would be quite handy.

I check everyday but there's never anything in my size.

Just got mine today. Light grey one button peak lapel house cut. Just finished steaming it and will post pics in the next couple days (I am off work and the opportunity to wear it has not presented itself!).

Measurements are in my opinion nearly perfect. The only thing I need to do is let the sleeve out maybe 1/2 inch. I have one shirt that is shorter in the sleeves that it fits with perfectly, but my other shirts have too much cuff showing. I do love it though!

My wife said she would take the picture, but I had to include the dogs. Please excuse the break on the pants. Combination of moving, trying to get the dogs to sit. The length of the legs gives no break, but for some reason they slid down my waist a little bit in the picture. Also, please excuse crappy photos....this is my first time!

Edit: After looking at these, apparrently, my wife has uneven legs!

am i the only one who things its a little odd for a tie to be so much thicker than the lapel? you guys need slimmer ties for your slim suits.

My wife did it, and I think she did pretty spot on. Jason suggested the sleeve length since I was uncomfortable with my measurement.

We measured back to back without looking at the previous set of numbers to make sure it was right.

Looks good! I really want a suit now but at my age I'd wear it once or twice a year :p
