The fit lines which are fully canvased are the Jort and La Spalla fits. There have been Jort DB flannels in the past but none currently on offer.
MTM looks like the only way to get a full canvas DB at the moment. All the current Madison/Soho/Havana fits available are half canvas.

I understand your skepticism. I think you just have to be very clear about what you want from the outset. Thankfully the super-fitted #menswear look seems to be on the way out.

Over here, SuSu's starting MTM price is €499, which is insanely cheap. Prices at the local shop doing my suit start at €1100. I ended up paying more than that despite a 20% discount.

Please post your B&R suit when it's ready. I'm sure I'm not the only poster who is interested in a comparison.

I'm a bit confused by your post. At your local SuitSupply it starts at €1100 for MTM and you were able to get a 20% discount?

Or does it start at €499? That's sounds lower than I would've ever thought.

Last Fall when I checked it was a little over $1000 for us in the US.

Sorry for the confusion. I meant the local menswear store, not SuitSupply. SuSu is only opening here next year.

€499 is SuSu's MTM starting price in the eurozone. At Sauma, the place I went to, the starting price is €1100.

Sorry if this question has been asked and answered previously in this 1000+ page long thread.

Is SuitSupply going downmarket/removing their top lines?

Their website currently shows no premium line suits from most of the collections - La Spalla, Jort, etc. There's only a few Hartford models.

Where did the nice stuff go? I liked La Spalla because it was 85% of a Zegna suit at 40% of the cost.

I mentioned it on the last page, but I feel the same way. They're embracing Fast Fashion. Those consumers won't care about real horn buttons or a full canvas construction. They want tight capri style pants and jackets 3 sizes too small. That's how the sales associates are trained and instructed to dress, it's what is selling for them.

@Michael81 What did you end up selecting at Sauma!? I've liked some of the work I've seen of there's on the NordicFit and Dress Like A blogs.

Is Brooks Brothers the next step up in terms of quality for suits around $1000? If what everyone in this thread is saying is true, I will probably only buy during outlet sales from now on.

@h3ro I chose a 340oz light-grey flannel 2 piece with classic details. Standard shoulder pads, button point and trouser rise at the natural waist, double reverse-pleats and patch pockets and a slightly longer jacket. A bit different from what you see on The Nordic Fit and Dress Like A, so I'm quite interested to see how it turns out.

any of these flannel?

How to check the weight of the wool?

Id prefer the four seasons...

Do they offer any student discount?

Here are the new Jort suits https://us.suitsupply.com/en_US/suits?prefn1=fit&prefv1=Jort
They all look pretty good. Some of the coats this season are quite nice as well, so I'm a bit perplexed as to the widespread negativity on here. From what I've seen so far, the releases over the last year or so compare very favorably with my previous La Spalla/Hartford/Sienne/Madison etc. suits. Just my humble opinion.

Cheers

The new Havana right out of the box. I'll try and get other photos later, but so far I feel like the fit is almost spot on.

 

[star656]

Can someone tell me the difference between these two overcoats?

https://us.suitsupply.com/en_US/coats/grey-overcoat/J460LB.html?cgid=Coats

https://us.suitsupply.com/en_US/coats/grey-overcoat/J460I.html

They both appear to be the same?

 

[sargeinaz]

I just wish the Havana had higher arm holes. Then I'd strongly consider doing an MTM navy hopsack blazer with wider lapels and a 3 roll 2 like this one (this is not my picture, I found it online)

That looks more like a biella fit because I’m sure Havana lapels aren’t that wide

It's one of their new models that is being labeled as Havana now. I know a lot of stuff just got smoothed into the Havana line.
