How do they fix that?

shoulders do look a little wide, but still fits better than most RTW I would say

They take it in a little but I'm not sure on the exact process. I've had that problem with every pair of pants I've owned so far. I show it to the tailor and they know what immediately to do with it. I'll try to find out next time.

what is wrong with the back of the thighs anyway? the small flair near the ass cheeks?

i like the jacket length. makes me want to get a tad longer length with my next basic suit. overall pretty damn good for a first order.

Thanks. They are 2.75. I have a couple 2.5, but I think for me, the 2.75 is about the perfect lapel width.

yep, my two TaT, and the other suit I own, have the same lapel widths, which go pretty well with ties of the same width, which is pretty much the only ones i buy

If I were to do this, what would you guys recommend for an athletic (5.11, 155 lbs, not super slim but definitely swimming in most off the rack suits) build and a need for great versatility in my first suit? I know I would prefer dark charcoal (or navy as a second choice) and 2 button modern fit, but beyond that when it comes to suits I'm pretty clueless.

 

[swooc]

i'd imagine charcoal in the conservative cut is what most people go for as their first tat suit. this came in the mail today. pow #52 with type 1 slant pockets (about 20 degrees). the fabric is pretty lightweight making the suit feel a little roomier than my previous ones. but i think i've finally hit the measurements i like. i feel the overall balance would have been better if the jacket was slightly longer. 1/2"- 1"?

I see the site lists $443 as the base price for a suit, but I can't find the base price for just a jacket. Anyone know?

I believe the price of the suit is 480 and just the jacket was in the mid 300 range. I forgot the exact price.

swooc, yes, it looks like the jacket doesn't reach your curled fingers. What are you going to do? Could this have been avoided?

 

[brad-t]

Swooc's jacket looks fine.
