Custom Linen Suits $99!


Recommended Posts

So, DF's and my dad's suit have both shipped. FFIL & BM got their suits last week. I wanted to start this post so you can see costs, etc. and shipping times from order. Once we get DF's & my dad's suits, I'll post pics of them in them, and then again after the wedding. :)

 

Suits Ordered - 01/12/12 (I emailed back & forth with them for a couple of days to tweak sizing, etc.)

 

Best Man

Tropical English Beige/Lined Preset Suit - we ordered his unhemmed

Shipped - 01/20/12

Received - 01/27/12

Cost - $159.99 ($139.99 for suit, $20 for shipping, his cost a little extra because he needed a larger size jacket & waist for pants)

 

Father of Groom

Tropical Rome Beige/Classic Comfort/Lined Custom Suit

Shipped - 01/21/12

Received - 01/27/12

Cost - $139.99 ($119.99 for suit, $20 for shipping)

 

Groom

Tropical English Beige/Classic Comfort/Lined Custom Suit

Shipped - 01/31/12

Received - waiting to arrive

Cost - $138.99 ($119.99 for suit, $19 for shipping)

 

Father of Bride

Tropical Rome Beige/Classic Comfort/Lined Custom Suit

Shipped - 01/31/12

Received - waiting to arrive

Cost - $148.99 ($129.99 for suit, $19 for shipping, his cost a little more because of his waist size)

 

 

Measurements:

For all of our measurements, I rounded up to the next largest number (if it was a half). I also modified some of our measurements based on things I had read in this thread.

Waist - we added 2 inches

Thigh - we added 1 inch

Outer length - we added 1 inch

Trouser leg bottom - Studio Suits emailed me and said they felt the trouser leg bottom should 20, as linen pants are worn wider at the leg bottom (we had put down 18)

Shoulder - they felt our shoulder measurements were too small, so I had them add 2 inches

Sleeves - they felt FFIL's sleeves were too long, but he is really tall, so I left as-is

We just received a shirt we ordered and its probably already been mentioned here but its great they write sample all over the bag and say the cost was only $4.00 so that way you don't have to pay the duty!  Oh and the shirt is very nice and will work great for the wedding.

DF & my dad's suits both came in, it took literally 3 days from when they shipped. DF tried his on real quick and it fits great, the sleeves are just a tiny bit too long - take note of how we did measurements! The quality is nice and I love both the Tropical English Beige and the Tropical Rome Beige colors.

Of course I would be the only one to have problems lol. I got my suit super fast and I love the color and fabric and when he put on the jacket I got so excited. BUT the pants were no good. He says he can't even wear them for the ceremony. The rise is too low. The pant ends right over his crack lol and the front is way below his stomach. i got a pre set size so I don't know if he is just a freak lol or if other people have had this rise issue???
