Why can I only find 36r suits in the high street. Why do so few designers actually make suits in this size?

Suitsupply do - A little more expensive than the high street but the general consensus is they're pretty good suits for the money. Well fitting and proportioned too

Most suit suppliers make what size they can sell the most for. Some only sell those sizes in store and not online. Many are put aside for preferred customers as well.

Such is the life of us 36R-ers
