Go to a local decent shop if you can (e.g. Take this from a guy who did everything in reverse and regrets it. IMO, you're better off getting some basic staples to begin with before you go buck wild with customization. IC suits run the gamut from meh to awful.
Not to **** on your thread, but I have a few questions for you. I thought they were a bit bulky.Ĭlick to expand. If not, should I get no belt loops and choose side tabs?. If you request unhemmed then you may not like where they put the buttons. Measure yourself, compare to other jackets where you like the length, and then measure again. If you select this option I suggest you are very very very dialed in with your sleeve measurement. I personally like the look of the higher arm holes because it also helps create the V taper down your torso.įunctional Sleeve Buttonholes. I'm guessing IC thought their biggest market would be Americans so perhaps they thought this would be the more 'standard' option. historians can correct me, but I think American sack suits and the Jos Banks of the world have lower holes. If it eases movement, then why wouldn't it be a default?. Higher Arm Holes: The consensus seems to be to always choose higher arm holes. I have 2 IC suits, one with natural and one with regular, the regular padding is fairly minimal. as someone posted above, if you have very straight shoulders then you may want to consider the natural option. Natural Shoulders: I'm really not sure at all about this one. get flaps no flaps are more prevalent on tuxedos and "clubby" jackets. No Pocket Flaps: Do most suits accomodate tucking flaps into the pocket anyway? All of mine do. Slanted Pockets: I think my preference is to be conservative and not have slanted pockets. I personally have avoided this option with IC.
I too have heard that their pick stitching is over the top. Pick Stitching: I know this is typically preferable in a custom suit, but have heard mixed reviews on Indochino's pick stitching. I know your belt should not show when wearing a vest, but should you wear a belt at all? If not, should I get no belt loops and choose side tabs? I don't want to wear suspenders. I don't get what they mean when they say Normal vs. How big a risk is it for a first suit from Indochino? And, if I choose them, should I also choose unhemmed jacket sleeves, or does that not matter since the placement of the buttons will already have been made? Vest
If it eases movement, then why wouldn't it be a default?įunctional Sleeve Buttonholes: I really want functional sleeve buttons. Jacket and vest lining: I like the idea of getting something unique like pink, but will I regret it? Regardless, should the jacket lining always match the vest lining? Please let me know if you know of any other guides. I plan to order the Indochino Light Gray Three Piece Suit as discussed here and have some questions on the customization and advanced options.
