    Burberry Trench Bespoke - but not the price?

    Hi there, I'm looking to get a bespoke Burberry style trench, without paying the Burberry price (bespoke or OTR). I'm actually looking to do this for my fiance so I'm looking for an tailor that can do women's style as well. Any suggestions? SM

    Linen Twill or Gabardine Suiting

    Does anyone know of any fabric houses making linen twill or gabardine? I've been thinking of a cream linen suit for next summer and thought that a twill or gabardine weave would not only look nice, but possibly help prevent wrinkles. Any thoughts?

    The wonders of MTM and BESPOKE ONLY SUIT Appreciation THREAD

    I feel like there needs to be one of these... There's a serious bespoke shoe one, nothing for the wonders of the suits. Gentlemen, get to it.

    Beginner Bespoke/MTM - what next?

    Next week I should be picking up my third bespoke outfit, a navy blue suit (first two were a dinner suit and a navy blazer, both of which I was happy with; and some MTM shirts, which also turned out well). I'm thinking about what to commission next, given my budget constraints and clothing...

    How did you feel after ordering your first high dollar bespoke/mtm?

    Hey all...so I just ordered my first MTM suit and after dropping nearly 3x the cost of my normal suits I can't help but feel a bit uneasy. I can't tell if I'm just anxious, nervous about buying a suit I haven't actually worn or even fully seen, or if its actually buyers remorse. Obviously no one...

    Knot Standard custom suits?

    Has anyone heard of them before? I did a search but nothing came up. I thought they were a business similar to Indochino but they state that they do not use pre-cut patterns, that each pattern is customized. I saw a Living Social deal today which led me to them but I rather not go thru the...

    Bespoke Suit in LA

    Long time lurker, first post I am looking to get a bespoke suit but I am a noob. I am willing to spend ~$500 and would like some guidance from the tailor (I know I want charcoal). It is important to me that there is someone guiding me through the process and I'd like to be measured (don't...

    House of Bespoke Suits?

    Im seeing a deal for a $300 MTM suit from House of Bespoke. Does anyone have any past experiences with them? I was planning on heading to suitsupply later this week but this deal beats it price wise. http://www.groupon.com/deals/house-of-bespoke-2?c=all&p=4 Yelp reviews, for what their worth...

    Definitive List of Bespoke Tailors – NYC (Traveling or Domestic)

    After literally reading through hours upon hours of past threads, I have decided it may be best to consolidate a definitive (and current) "SF-approved" list of tailors who regularly travel to NYC (or are located in the NYC metro area) that make high quality full bespoke suits for sub-$3,500...

    Bespoke Suits in HK

    Hello all, I am a newbie who is finally looking to take the leap of faith into bespoke suits. There are certainly lots of information in this forum, and based on my research I have narrowed down my choices to WW Chan and Lee Baron (I live in HK). I purposely picked the two, as they seemed to...

    In Defense of OTR Suits - A Comment That Became a Long-Winded Essay

    I’m a longtime lurker and occasional impulse buyer on the B&S section of this esteemed site. In recent days, I’ve fallen down the bespoke/MTR/CMT wormhole, starting with a few humble shirt purchases from moderntailor. Like the proverbial first free vial of crack, those rather inexpensive...

    Rule for Amount of Cloth?

    My size is 40 short, 5' 7" height, 40" chest, 34" waist, pants with 29 " inseam. My tailor's information about amount of cloth is always inconsistence. If I need 2 yards for a SB jacket and 1.5 yards for trousers, why 3.25 yards is enough a 2 pc SB suit and why 3.6 yards is enough for a 3pc SB...

    What are my options for a bespoke Camel Coat?

    I am interested in getting a camel coat (80/20 Wool/Camel or 100% Camel) with a trimmer cut throughout the body. What are my options online. Do I have to purchase fabric online and then take it to a tailor or are there any makers you can recommend? This would be the ideal choice for me.

    Bespoke bicycles

    ..I haven't posted on SF in a few years. During that time period, the bespoke bug that bit me here infected another of my passions, cycling. In honor of the Tour's conclusion today, I'm sharing shots of my and my wife's custom bikes, made by a few of the world's best. If you have any of your...

    Does anyone have experience with John H Daniel MTM?

    I recently discovered that my tailor outsources MTM clothing to a company called John H Daniel. There are a couple of old topics concerning said company, but they didn't contain too much information and I'd like to see if anyone has recent experience (quality, styling, etc). I am planning on...
