I don't know if I've confirmed or negated your opinion here, but I am a shade under 6 foot tall, and vary between 98 and 102 kilos - 215 to 220 pounds for the Americans. I'm sure it would all look better if I was 20 kilos lighter, but such is life. My wife is too good a cook.

When I went in it looked like they had maybe $10k worth of stock. But they were asking $1m.....

ThinkDerm,
I'm about a 44 chest and waist and a 42 shoulder, but dropped right and pitched forward. OTR always looks wrong on me, so to get even this close with MTM is fantastic for me.

Went in for my final adjustment yesterday (P.Johnson tailors that is :p) To sum up, suit is fantastic, even better than I expected, yes I'm a skinny young guy, however both Patrick and Ethan knew exactly what I wanted. Patrick's style and my style seem to be directly correlated. That said I will be definitely going back and ordering more suits and shirts! Could not recommend P.Johnson anymore P.s good to see you Ethan
