Hmm, I'm not a fan of 3btn peak lapels. Actually I'm not a fan of single breasted suits with peak lapels in general, but am especially opposed to the three button versions.

I agree if it's a true three-button, but I think it looks alright with a three-to-two, but then I guess you're in two-button territory.

I like this suit and don't think it looks "unbalanced" (whatever that means). I had a 3 roll to 2 peak lapel made and think it looks awesome and I think this one looks really nice. Don't be afraid to have your own style that doesn't fit with what the majority on the forum thinks.

The only thing that gives me pause about this suit is the 170s fabric.

This suit will be worn on a special occasion as s170 would not be durable for every day wear. I think this suit has touch of elegancy and does not look too boring. Perfect for non business suit, imo.

Too much going on for me - in a simpler fabric maybe I'd like it, but that pattern along with the rest of the details... I vote no.
