One - nice color! Two - photos are best taken by someone else. Helps see issues without you twisting your arms and shoulders. Three - what material is that? That crease almost makes me think linen but it's definitely an odd crease. What did the tailor say about it?

The grey suit fits your shoulders and back best. Both trousers are way too tight in my opinion.

Anyone tried the Mira and care to comment? It is really nice that Suitsupply are starting to add som trousers with a higher rise and a bit fuller (but not full enough) legs.

I had also been looking at the Mira fit, but from what I can see they are now only offering Mira shorts? A bit off topic, but if you like fuller pants I have just received a pair of CAMO Comanche pants via No Man Walks Alone which are very good. Full seat and leg, VERY comfortable, but still look sharp and tailored.

There are one pair of Mira trousers:

Oh hey just thought to post this. I ordered the Roma tobacco linen suit for science. Sending it back because I just got a tobacco linen suit from another maker, but I wanted to see how I liked the cut for future reference.
I published my thoughts here:

Thanks for sharing this, I found it very helpful. I have been curious about the Roma fit for a while. In Europe the value proposition is better than in the US, since Spier & Mackay is not as readily available here and import costs make it more expensive.

In your article you mention that you would take the same size as other Suitsupply cuts. Can you expand a bit more on how the fit compares to other popular cuts? The size chart feels off, with very much larger shoulders and shorter sleeves than other cuts.

Hi Mitchell - how is the rise on the trousers? Suitsupply calls them mid-rise but they appear to be quite a bit higher than what they usually offer. Hoping they sit at the belly button.

Very helpful. If there were a consistent gripe I have with SS, it’s the website pictures. I often see something that looks like the perfect color, only to find it very different in-person due to lighting. My nearest store doesn’t get everything so by the time I can see a color in-person, my size isn’t available. I thought that looked more dark tobacco online,, but in your pics, it looks more cigar.

Any thoughts on the Suit Supply Lazio Tux?

I ordered custom made tuxedo suit with single breasted jacket and double breasted jacket. I opted for black pure tropical wool because it's a bit more heavier weight at 320gr/m2 but still offer some breathability due to more open weave. I will probably receive it next week.

I don't know if the custom made tuxes are based on Lazio or the La spalla.

Is it possible to due a shawl collar through the MTO process?

New custom suit arrived. Trousers were slightly off so they’re going away for adjustments. Pretty happy with the jacket though!
