    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    I figure I'll get the shirt sleeve right first, buy a bunch of shirts with the same measurements, and then adjust the suit sleeve as necessary.

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    Can I get some general feedback on this MTM shirt? And in particular - are the sleeves too short?

    The Mora 2's look good initially but I don't think I can deal with the captoe crease issues that seems to be inherent with the model.

    I think that was me. Time to start swapping out for the 8 last haha! Edit: unfortunately it looks like the Caryle is the only good looking model in that last

    I should really unsubscribe from this thread... I want to get all 4 pairs.

    Haha you got me all excited to re-measure myself to see if I'd somehow grown. Still 5' 7" and a quarter :\

    Greatly appreciate the honest feedback from both of you. I'll give the 36R a shot. There's still the issue of the stomach area billowing out though. Is that an easy fix at the tailor?

    I'm 5'7" so a regular jacket makes my torso look really long compared to my legs. Unfortunately I don't have a full length mirror at home so I can't take a full body picture. The suit supply website recommended a short as well. I think the suit sleeves look short because my dress shirt sleeves...

    I realize the dress shirt sleeves are a little long and am waiting for my MTM shirt to arrive. In the meantime, I would love to hear some feedback on the fit of this unaltered 36S Napoli. The shoulders feel great but the suit billows out frontwards below the waist. Is this an easy tailoring fix...

    What do you guys think of single versus double keeper belts? Is one more dressy than the other?

    Yep, Hitch in Post is a questionable Ebay seller. I bought some "brand new without box 1st quality" McAllisters from them a while back and they looked worse than most Shoebank seconds.

    Any chance you got post a side by side shot with the park avenues? The Caryles seem to have a longer, more modern toe-taper which I'm digging.

    Thanks for all of the replies. Sounds like the Napoli cut might be a good fit if I just take in the waist. I have broad, sloping shoulders and a relatively small waist. My thighs are toned but not big, so the Napoli's tighter-fitting pants feature might be perfect. The next question: what's...

    I'm looking for a solid (no pattern) dark grey interview suit. Is the Napoli fit the only option? I'm slim (Asian athletic build, 5'8" 140 lbs) and a little worried that the Napoli won't be slim enough. Thoughts / advice? Thanks!

    It looks like Nordstrom Strands are made on a different last than the AE Strands (picked up off Amazon). 1) Nordstrom's version has a noticeably larger (both longer and wider) toe-box, with the brogueing further from the tip 2) Nordstrom version has a longer and wider heel...

    Completely agree. Additionally, the Strand seems to have a longer toe box which is a more modern and my preferred look.
