Mailman brought two sizes of the same suit.
Which one do you think fits better (sleeve and pants-length obv. have to be altered)

Nah, I don't think its too tight. Just don't get the right feeling with this suit. Something is a little off, I can't really tell what, however...


agreed, i feel that way with many of SS's offerings.

^^ typo - Italia 38R

Also purchased a Napoli suit. Fits well OTR but getting pants hemmed an inch. I'll post pics.

Going to order a few more sport coats in different models and several pants.

Very pleased so far.

I've tried some of their suits on in their nyc store. I think it was a washington and a sienna but i can't remember at this point. Shoulder fit was good, sleeves a bit short, button stance was high for me, and the lapels were damn near my traps. The fit overall was pretty solid, but I just didn't love the style. It just seemed a tiny bit off. Can't explain really...just aesthetics

oh, i should add that I may have purchased the suit, but i'm a chubby bastard and I can't wear 32 inch trousers (i'm a 38 jacket)
