Does the style of that grey suit at the beginning have a name? It resembles the style of an outdoor shooting/hunting outfit but it looks like it is for indoor events.
I got the measurement from my neck to my pants hem and divided it by 2. I was pleased to see that my suits fit.
Any way to get this pattern? I love the practicality of the design and would love top cut me one! Please help!
your pants are too big
Anyone come here just to realise that none of your suits fit properly? I did.
I just got a new suit
My waist is 31.6 cm and shoulder are 49cm and i got a slim fit double breasted suit 😭😭😭 . I look like a cartoon character (my measurements 187cm.height weight 73kg)
I enjoyed the informative video. I have a question. I'm curious about the length of the jacket you wore. I bought a sports jacket this time and it was 76.5cm long. I am about 174.5cm tall, so please let me know if the figures are appropriate. Thank you.
Sorry to say but your suit is not looking good on you
I'm getting smarter with these Gents.😉
Great stuff. Now, I’m just not sure if I can find a tailor who can make these subjective determinations for me. Or should any competent tailor be able to do so?
bigest problem i got with fit , is since am tall and slim , most that fit me in shoulder are to short on sieves .
9:33 – your jacket is actually longer than the pants – i think it is difficult for it to be exactly the same
Well, I usually wear frock-coats and I don't think my upper body appears to be to long as my waistcoats are quite short.
That "pop" landed perfectly in time when he said Shhhhoulder @3:50 😄
what are your thoughts on the fashion of the times , extremely skinny fitting suits! i find them disgusting its almost impossible to find trousers (even jeans) that are not tailor made in a non skinny fit in Europe
Why are non of the videos you suggest clickable?
sorry bro if you look like james bond i woulda listen :/
This is a great in-depth tutorial on how a suit should fit. I've learned so much. Great video!
What should you do if you are in between sizes? For example I got measured as a 39 chest size, but that’s hard to find in ready to wear clothing. I tried a 38 jacket, but I found the shoulders didn’t match my natural shoulders exactly. The padding was just a little big. Would sizing up be a better option?
Thank you so much for this video Mr. Schneider
Thank you so much :)))
I recently saw a video by an English tailor about high arm holes in cheap suits vs correct arm holes. Now I can't stop seeing evidence of high arm holes everywhere I look!
Great video but you need spear collar shirt with that collar pin
5:30 i love that facial expression lol
Wish my life required to look Daper, boots, wrangler jeans. And a t shirt is all you can afford or need. Works for me
I've watched this a couple of times because understanding how a suit is supposed to fit is not an easy thing. As you said, 99% are wearing suits that don't fit- so the photos you provided of ill-fitting suits- What is wrong with them? All I could see was one fellow had sleeves that were too long. But I just have to disagree with some of your color choices. Not a fan of the brown shoes. Dark brown shoes would have blended with the color of the suit as well, creating a more unified look rather than those light brown shoes that draw attention to your feet.
My older brothers make Mistake 12 – every time they see me.
But your pants arent fitting
Never wore a suit in my life up until my papas funeral a week or so ago… probably shoulda watched this lol. It looked good except for the armholes were a bit too big
Harrisons of Edinburgh, as in Edinburgh Scotland, is not pronounced Edinbow. It's pronounced Edinburra.
Why can't I find an episode specially for fluffy guys like me 😉
how much did you pay for that suit you're wearing?? What does it cost to make such a suit here in the USA?
I am so appreciative of this channel. At first I thought suits from Jos A BNk were nice since their top of the line is $600-$700. However after we thing these videos I realized how much of a rip off it is. I work at Jos A Bank and they have nice selection of Italian fabrics but the quality is horrible.
I am a 15 year old girl and I'd love to wear suits. I like to look more masculine but that is a little hard with men suits, of couse I could wear women suits but they don't look very masculine. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem?
Love the action back on your suit here
What about the armholes on a waistcoat? Is it the same as the jacket?
How come people 50 or 60 years ago seemed to have better-fitting suits? The jackets were much more natural-looking and didn't have a boxy look around the shoulders. Shoulders are much too structured now. People move in them and the shoulder just stays like a box instead of being draped on the shoulder.
Most jackets just don't fit people. That is why people don't like suits. You can't buy an off-the-rack jacket and get a really good fit. Even shirts are getting that way,
Armholes are just terrible on a lot of jackets and shirts. They are just too low. I even see people who must have bespoke suits who whole side of the suit comes up when they lift their arm.
Hi Can you please also let me know how a "gentleman" should pass gas ? Can he do it on the streets , as he indireclty owns them anyway ? or should he run to the toilet all the time ?
Very hard for me to get a good fit. I am quite short with 170cm, but I am very athletic. I have muscular legs, broad shoulders, tiny waist and no stomach, I have what you call a six pack. So I usually get a size 23 for jackets to avoid having too much fabric around the belly and for the jacket sleeves not to be too long. But then there often is not enough fabric for my shoulders and chest. Same thing with trousers: When I get a size that fits around the waist there usually is not enough space for my muscular legs.
How should an obese man dress? someone said he should wear a double breasted suit.
no matter how loud I put the volume, I can never hear this guy talking.
Love the wastecoat. Hate the pleats on the pockets.
Gold. Simply gold. Bravo, maestro! Bravo!
who's playing the "Dapper Drinking Game" here?
might need poison control on speed dial…XD
we love you Sven. 😀
I have to say that I am really loving everything about this suit you are wearing: colors, pattern, cut.. all of those wonderful small details as well. Excellent choices! Thanks for all of the info as I attempt to buy a wedding suit.
Good work 👍
