Looking for suggestions--

Im looking for just simple navy and charcoal, 3 piece, SB, dual vent, two-button suits.

Fully canvassed, with some hand work if possible. Nothing extravagant, nothing super fashion forward.

Anyone have any suggestions? Ive looked everywhere I can think of, but not, Im sure everywhere you can think of!

Freeman's Sporting Club. Call them on the phone, ask for Alex (the british one). Given your criteria I'll assume price isn't too much of an issue, which is a prerequisite to dealing with Freeman's - its not exactly a bargain hunter's paradise

A good tailor, perhaps?

You can get a decent one tailored for about as much as it would cost to get one off the rack and tailored to fit you.

you should also include your budget. cause there will probably be replies that match your criteria but that may run over what your budget was

For that price range, you can quite easily get a decent one tailored.

I've got a nice Rag & Bone three piece suit that I bought for like $1100 retail, worth checking out, although some might find them too designery.
