What matters

Worth knowing

What it is
North American tailored clothing across a range of models and price points.
A sensible starting point
If you are buying a first proper suit off the rack, this is a reasonable place to begin.
Models
Several cuts. The shoulder decides which one is yours; everything else is adjustable.
Cloth
Ask the weight. In this climate it matters more than the mill’s name.
Altered here
By Enrique, on site, with you in the jacket.
Who it suits
A first proper suit, or a second in a different color.
Navy first
It covers business, weddings, funerals and dinner. Charcoal is the only serious alternative.
What to spend
Less on the first, more on the second, once you know how often you wear one.

Common questions

Tailored clothing, answered

Is this a good first suit?

It is a sensible starting point for a first proper suit off the rack — a range of models, decent construction, and altered here so it actually fits. Custom is a later decision, once you know how often you wear one.

Which model should I choose?

Whichever fits your shoulder. That is the one thing no alteration meaningfully fixes, so it decides the model, and the waist, sleeves and hem are all adjusted afterwards.

How long do alterations take?

It depends on the work and the queue, and we give you a date rather than a vague answer. A hem is quick; recutting a jacket is not.

Should I buy this or go custom?

If you wear a suit occasionally, buy this and have it altered properly. Custom earns its place at weekly wear, and we would rather tell you that than sell you the more expensive answer.
