Just received my mod 2 jacket in size 50, love the detail!
Is alterations needed ?

Sleeves definitely a bit too short, but I'm sure you know that.

Looks to me like it might be slightly too big in shoulders, or maybe sleeve pitch is wrong? Especially in the shot from the back.

Could also be the length of the shirt sleeves which is too long, however hard to tell from these pics

Do you do trouser swaps for suits @kevinsvindland ? I have a 33" waist but prefer pants w/ a higher rise (10.5" flat front, or 11.5-12" high rise) and some room in the thighs, not sure if the 52 or 50 pants would fit me better.

All suits come in sets I am afraid..
We are still small, and don't need a ton of odd stock.

But once we settle on the fabric, we have an ambition to offer a selection of mix and match trousers and jackets.
No hard timeline on this as of today though..

This may have already been asked, but what does the rest of the bracelet say?

Just a heads up @kevinsvindland... a lot of the product descriptions are out of sync. Might want to fix that ??

Yup, waiting for an answer to an angry mail to the developers...

Haha! Perhaps I should have one of those made too..

But yes, it says **** Cancer.
Made by volunteers, and sold by a Norwegian cancer charity called Kreftforeningen.

Hi! I'm brand spanking new on the forum and come to ask about the fit of Mod 2 Sport Coats relative to Suit Supply Havana. The current sale is absolutely ridiculous, so I'm looking at maybe picking something up. I fit pretty well in a US 38R Havana OTR (it's maybe a smidge small in the shoulders, but otherwise on point, and a 40R is pretty roomy on me) so I'm wondering what y'all think could be a good fit in the Mod 2?

Decided to go for a a Mod 2 in 48 and I should be able to provide some Cavour Mod 2 vs. SuitSupply Havana fit comparison in a few days! I just absolutely fell in love with the houndstooth jacket and felt like it was worth the gamble, especially with the apparently quite easy return process

Does anyone have experience letting out the heavy cotton drill trousers?

They’re a bit too tapered for my taste. I understand there’s fabric to let out but I’m worried the old stitching would show. Not sure how forgiving the cotton would be.

A new delivery of ready to wear trousers from Ambrosi just landed too. I love this denim blue flannel from Holland & Sherry.
