Personally, I think you should choose whichever you like best. Contrary to most people here, I feel that the regular looks more proportional from the front, and the long looks better from the sides and back. But this may be because of how the photos are cut off. You'll hear different answers according to how old people are and where they live.

Apparently Suitsupply does a deal that is $800 for a tuxedo, a shirt, a bowtie, and a pair of shoes. The tux is from the purple line. Do you think it's worth it to spend $800 for this deal?

Thanks

Thank you all for your honest feedbeack, it is much appreciated.

I will keep the long one. The sleeves might be a hair long after shortening them, but hopefully not too much.

Just returned from suitsupply -- highly recommend working with Jennifer if I visit Madison ave store. Although the sienna is great, the spalla was an AMAZING fit and higher armhole, trim sides made all the difference

They charge for alterations??

Hi guys,

I'm from Portugal and there are no SuitSupply stores in here so I've to buy it online.
I've been looking the website's suit sizes/recommendations. Nevertheless, since most of you say that those sizes/recommended sizes are not reliable, it would be very useful if someone with similar body dimensions as I could advise me on the proper size.
Since I use suits everyday, I'm looking for wool suits, particularly Napoli, York and Washington blue models.

I am:
180 cm height
100 cm chest
90 cm upper waist
88 cm lower waist

Thanks a lot

What suit size do you normally take in other brands, and is that size tight or loose?

Euro or USA sizes? Because if USA size 46 or 48 would be quite big based on the measurements you provided. For the record, I'm 6' 245lbs and wear SuitSupply 48R in USA sizes.

Ah, just re-read your original post and saw you're from Portugal. Euro sizes then. Sorry, can't help you mate.
