Strange. I've found that their jackets have about 2.5" from cuff edge to button, which allows for 1.5" of shortening...
From the Suitsupply website:
In-house tailoring:
JACKET
- Take in/let out seams $28
- Take in centre back seam $16
- Shorten $40
- Shorten/lengthen sleeves (possible up to 3/4 of an inch, due to functioning buttonholes) $28
- Shorten sleeves from shoulder $75
- Square back neck $20
- Narrowing shoulders $75
- Add shoulder padding $20
What they could do is provide the details of the surgeons cuffs but not cut the buttonholes. For those who do not need extensive shortening they could be easily cut and the buttons resewn. For those who do need more extensive shortening, a tailor can pick the uncut buttonhole stitching and adjust accordingly. Many labels do it this way and it is much more flexible.
