Will the MTM program also have full canvassing available?
Also by any chance (if you happen to know yet) will you have MTM/RTW suits available in these colors/patterns?

It's hard to say with certainty but you ought to be okay I'd say. What's your weight and Wright and is your torso and lower body every proportioned?

I'm 185lbs, 6'2". My pants are 35x33, I'd say about average build. Slightly slimmer since I've been losing weight (only plan on losing another 10lbs so I don't think I'll slim up much more)It's hard to say with certainty but you ought to be okay I'd say.

I hadn't thought of that. Thank you for your help, I'm trying to decide if I can get away with the navy plaid in the office. Is it blue on darker blue? Black thread? Will it blend to a solid from a distance and then resolve into the plaid as you approach?
It's freaking gorgeous in the pictures :S
Edit: Referencing http://www.styleforum.net/t/475640/benjamin-sartorial-navy-plaid-sport-coat-39r-40r I think it's too bold for me. I'd be nervous wearing it haha, but I'll definitely try and grab the new model later this summer. Thank you for your help
Is there any reference guide to the fit of Benjamin Suits? Curious as to the fit of the various models: Classico, Classico II, Nobile, Granoro, etc...
I would like to buy one but just not sure how "slim" some of these fits are. For example I can wear a 44 in the Brooks Brothers Milano, 44 Samuelsohn Becket but need to get a 46 for a suit supply Sienna.
Any help would be appreciated.

Is there going to be a Spring/Summary release of Bella Spalla/Benjamin sport coats, or nothing new until Fall? Looking to add a few, but also require a long size -- will longs be available OTR or MTO only?
Yes we will be releasing just a few jackets for spring/summer... but not until some time in June. Mostly solids in linen fro Loro Piana and also some navy and brighter navy hopsack from Reda.
Thank you for your message and interest in the Benjamin Sartorial suits. All the suits feature higher armholes and a slimmer Italian fit. They are all fully canvassed and are fairly classic. The Granoro, Classico, and Classico II are all basically the same block difference. It started with the Granoro and then we made some extremely slight adjustments which most people wouldn't even notice (adjusted the collar positioning slightly) for the Classico and Classico II. These are all discontinued (no longer produced).
The Nobile is a new model, again with high armohles and fully canvassed, but the shoulders are slightly softer than the Granoro/Classico and the fit is just a little bit more form fitting than the Granoro/Classico - particularly in the shoulders. Also the lapels are just slightly larger (9 cm vs. 8.5 cm of the Classico).
Please note that while still classic and conservative in style, the Benjamin line is cut a little bit slimmer than most American commercial/mainstream brands. For Brooks Brothers we've been told that it's closest to the Fitzgerald model.
I hope this helps.
Sounds great, thanks. But there will be some long (42L) available OTR?
Is it June yet?
