Some descent pieces. Glad the white popover is back in stock too although looks more translucent than ever.

Have the sand safari from last season but kinda like the beige one in the new collection too

Might just be the picture, but does this shoulder look very structured (compared to other Havana models)?
Almost looks like a Washington.


I noticed that as well, but not on that particular product page but another havana. So much so that I even checked the product description to see if it still mentioned soft shoulder (which it did)

I picked up a suit from the sale that was advertised as Cashmere wool and silk. The tag reads featherweight flannel.

I don't know much about flannel suits. Looks unconstructed like a traveler suit with no lining and very comfortable. I'm guessing this will crease like crazy, so probably not ideal for traveling. I can't find how many oz the flannel is, but it seems very very thin.

Not sure if I'm going to love or hate this suit. Can anyone give me more information on flannel suits?

Edit: found it here: https://us.suitsupply.com/en_US/all_jort/jort-navy-plain/P5371I-S.html?pdp=true

i dont have any of these problems you all have
dont have sizing issues...i wear the same size across the board
every garment has a small variance

i also lift almost every day and never skip leg day

if its too tight maybe you are fat and in denial
I’m 6ft. 190. They just don’t fit me. Perhaps I’m a little fat, but I just ran my 25th marathon. I guess SS is not for guys like me

Have you tried the Bolzano or Braddon fit ?

I will second the recommendation for the Braddon fit (I think bolzano is same but just with button fly?) if you've got some muscle on your legs and typically you have some trouble with SS pants. I'm almost the same size as you (6ft 195sh) and those are the only pants from SuSu which don't require sizing up to fit my legs. They're still a slim trouser but might fit well enough if you like the look and want to keep your spend to about $200 per trouser.

Pants are definitely a common problem at Suitsupply.

What they try to do is nail the fit based on the average guy as close as possible so that nothing if anything has to be tailored and it just causes issues.

i don’t mind having a pair of larger pants in the thigh and calves and then tapering down to desired width.

I’m 5,10 180lbs and can’t fit my calves into Bolzano pants. Ridiculous.

Not only do none of the pants fit me. I took my 6’ 1” 200 lb son in for a first suit. Not even close. Went to Jos Banks instead.

I really wanted a store with good quality and reasonable prices to buy a suit. A good fitting lower quality suit beats Suitsupply fit any day.

Even if the tight pants do fit, they won’t last as long, thus they are more expensive in the long run.

Just an FYI for those who were able to grab the Lazio tuxedo from the outlet, a matching waistcoat can be ordered for $150 USD through their Custom Made service.

I found this out after I ordered the Lazio and received a striped 3 piece suit in a 38R vice my 46L.

Customer service was able to help but as I don't want to wear a cummerbund, it was great to hear they offer this option. I plan to check it out in a few months.

Edit: pic of the wrong suit

I ordered several custom made jackets a month ago and still no sign of delivery. I also see that in their website it's now "8-9 weeks to deliver" for custom made items. Anyone know where the factories are? China?
