    Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review

    I normally wear 9.5 US D shoes - AE, 9.5/10 - EG for example. I ordered the 1K boots in 9D and they fit me very well. I treated them with Lexol and the boots are now really nice chocolate brown. The leather quality is pretty good- soft, supple, and yet tough. These boots are the most...

    I was thinking about getting the same suit! Regarding the fit, I think you need to go size up.

     I've dealt with few different tailors in the past and getting back alterations properly done was luck of draw, imo. This one tailor so called a 'master tailor' really screwed up my Borrelli suit which required back alterations. Prior to that, the same tailor fixed my Isaia suit which...

     Try different model. Napoli is the model with most room around shoulders and chest. Try models like Washington, Lazio, or even Sienna. Those models have narrower shoulders and tighter fit than the Napoli.

     I have that York blue suit. The colour is dark navy/blue. In the evening, it can appear as black, but during the day, you can tell it's blue. Fabric is little stiffer than other s110 VBC fabric SS suits that I have, but it does drape well though. If you are looking for tad lighter blue...

     Just guessing here, is your right shoulder more full or developed than the left? May be tailor thought that you need more room around right shoulder. Or this could be mistake entirely made by your tailor.

     The jacket is not long. Actually, it's on boarder line of being short, IMO. You have low right shoulder- creating diagonal lines at the back and bowing out lapel. Do you have the same problems with other OTR jackets that you own? Jacket seams to fit tight around your belly area for some...

     Are you seriously worried about S140 vs S130??? Let's say if it was S130, what would you do then? BTW, I loved the way SA at SS Toronto store provides services so far.

     IMO, I see slight pull in the mid section (X crease around the top button). Just wondering how your rear fit looks like. I imagine that you may have rolls around your rear waist area.

     I tried to keep my posture neutral, but my shoulder is lower than the right, creating diagonal pull. I think this suit has a OK fit overall, but I think I will pass due to the mess at the back.

    This is me wearing La Spalla 40R jacket. I asked SA to take picture of my back because that's where I have most problem with OTR suits. From the front this jacket fitted me really well, but from the back, it did not look very good especially the circled area. SA suggested lowering the collar...

    Suit fit critique please

    It could be just the way you stand for the picture pose, but from the front, it looks like you have lower left shoulder creating uneven look; more ripple around left chest than right. Like others said, I think you should shorten the sleeves and lengthen the pants. Also, lower back of the...

     Thanks for the warning. 44 would be very big for me. Although the jacket showed no seam pulling; under arms, shoulders, waist line, and center, but I have not tried the pants. My thighs aren't that big but I would hate to see pant seams get pulled all different directions when I sit or...

     I remember that size 40R jacket sleeves hugged my arms and showed natural contours. With 42R jacket, I lost that fine line and definitely needed some trimming around sleeves.

    I visited a local store and tried on suit jackets; Havana (40R) and La Spalla (40R and 42R) model. Just give some size reference, I am 5.10" tall, have 43 chest, 34 waist 35 hip (all tape measurements on skin). I typically wear 42R suits and SC. Both Havana and La Spalla 40R jackets fitted me...

    My Tom Ford suit fit opinions?

     From the store perspective, they will try this and that to justify you should keep your ruined jacket. In reality though, that jacket will unlikely to fit as it was made. Those shoulders look too tight and sleeve heads do not shape like the original TF suit. If you paid for full price...

    info on borrelli royal collection suit shoulders?

    I also have eye on the royal collection suit from STF. Compare to Isaia suit jacket, does this Borrelli suit jacket have more padding?
