What do you guys have to say about SS' double breasted suits/jackets? Are the lapels proportinate when it comes to smaller sizes (EU 44)? I have a DB jacket (non-SS) which I love, hence I'd like to add some more DB pieces to my wardrobe, but it's the lapels that scare me. I'm pretty young, so DB jackets need to have a more slim silhouette compared to single breasted ones to not make me look "too" old.

The Soho is very well proportioned in my opinion. Skinny lapels on a double breasted suit always seemed silly to me. Though the Madison models lapels always just seemed a little too large.

So had bought a Siena fit but sadly just does not work for my body. Like on the Havana I tend to get Shoulder divots. So decided to buy the new Super 180 Jort.

** Need help with 42S double-breasted jacket measurements **


I'm thinking of getting a Madison or SOHO double-breasted suit in 42 short and I need help from anyone here who owns a DB in 42 short in these models.

Can you tell me, please, what is the HALF-WAIST measurement of a 42 short double-breasted jacket in Madison or SOHO?

You can check this URL here for an illustration of how to measurement the half-waist.

Hey guys. Could you give me some shoulder and length sizing suggestions on these jackets? The first two pictures are a Jort cashmere size 38, and the next four are Jort cashmere size 36. I'm mainly asking for the shoulder. The chest is definitely better in the 38 as the 36 would have to be let out. Please ignore the casual attire that I'm wearing today. Thanks!

My Experience with SuitSupply Copenhagen MTM

The Danish SuitSupply store opened this summer in Copenhagen. I have purchased from SuitSupply before either when in the UK or Germany and Online.
The Danish prices has been jacked up unfortunately but expected as salaries and taxes are higher in Denmark.

The Gentleman in charge of the MTM program in Copenhagen is named Alexander. I had given my MTM order some thought before scheduling the fitting. I wanted a 3 piece Dark Charcoal Suit in a Mohair blend. I wanted 'Con Rollino' shoulders, high armholes and inward pleated trousers with a high waist. All other details were chosen in the store with advice from Alexander. Some advice I took some I didn't.

I have sloping shoulders and a dropped right shoulder. I have a torso that fits a 46 EU and legs that fit 92 EU. My shoulder width due to the heavy sloping could fit a 44 EU. Before MTM I would buy a 48 and have my alteration tailor make adjustments. However the fit difference from off the rack and MTM is night and day.

I was lucky that the fitting session after mine had been canceled so we had plenty of time to discuss the details. I opted for Hacking pockets, a conscious choice that clashes a bit with the Italian shoulders. I also went with the widest lapels they offer. 'Con Rollino' is not an option for MTM, only 'Spalla Camicia' however Alexander did some magic so the result looks and feels like a 'Con Rollino' construction, it even feels like the stitching is pressed on the 'Con Rollino' side. I had opted not to have to pants taken up, this would be done in the store once I could see the suit on and deside whether I wanted cuffs or not.

After the suit arrived in the store I went for 2 additional fittings. The west and the suit jacket had to be let out by the hip, the side vents of the jacket had to be taken up a bit. I also chose Jort cuffs on the trousers that can be opened with buttons for cleaning. The second fitting took in the back around under the arms a small bit. The sleeve length is how I like it, advice was to show more cuff.

I'm very happy with the result and with the guidance that I got from Alexander. I would definitely recommend this service to others.

That looks very good. Shoulder looks nice. One of the best SS suits I've seen. Been thinking I should visit the Copenhagen store one day. What did the MTM suit end up costing?

I've rather not disclose the price in public. I have sent you a PM with details.

Anybody have any experience or reviews of the quality of the Suitsupply leather bags?

I'm eyeballing the Brown Holdall and Dark Brown Holdall.

I know their leather shoes havent gotten great reviews, but there seems to be little online regarding tbeir bags.

It's hard to find large, full grain leather, minimalist bags at this price point.

Any feedback or suggestions welcome.

The fit is amazing. I wouldn't be happy with the pattern and would prefer the plain instead, but everything else is just great.

This was one that caught my eye in the collection preview shots earlier in the year, precisely because of the texture. Nice. Where'd you get the tie?
