Sorry for the double post here, but I was apparently awfully drunk when I typed my last response. The sleeves are not, in fact, a quarter of an inch too short. I'm pretty sure I meant to say too long. As for that last sentence, your guess is as good as mine as to what I was trying to convey...
As I'm more or less a suit virgin, I won't pretend to know what a good drape means, or how much a suit like this would go for. I will say, though, that it's very breathable.
As for the tailor, the crappy part is that letting them out a quarter inch would be plenty. They fit, but they have just...
As soon as I get a shirt that isn't ridiculously shameful, I'll put up some pictures of me wearing the suit. Maybe sans palm tree.
And bil_maxx, I agree with you completely. The more I heard about the suit, the more baffled I am that someone stopped me on the street and gave it to me. Thank...
Oh, no reason to be sorry. You didn't come off sounding negative at all. I was saying that while my curiosity about the suit was important, it wouldn't have affected if I wear it or not. This Florida heat's a killer, though :p
Thank you for the detailed response, Tomasso. Even if you told me it was a WalMart rip-off, I'd still wear it. It looks nice and fits me almost perfectly, not to mention the fact that it's incredibly comfortable, minus the slight trouser squeeze.
And Talbot, I agree. Especially after hearing...
It's definitely an interesting study, but I'm on the fence about their findings. While I've never actually tried something similar to this, I do have personal experience with both.
To the best of my knowledge, my white cotton tee was very breathable, but I sweat a lot. On the other hand, there...
_Nightwing, I just took some pics of it and I'm in the process of uploading them. If you need more/different pictures, feel free to tell me what to do.

Again, if there's anything else you need to know, just ask, and I'll answer to...
Thanks so much, Rue!
It settles my mind that my first actual Suit is probably from the 70s and from a great brand. My fiancè can't seem to understand why I'm so fond of suits that I wear them indoors when I have no plans on going anywhere. Thanks again for the help, though, and the speedy...
First off, I'm new here. New to suits and dressing nice in general, though I've been in love with suits for as long as I can remember.
My question, though, is if someone on here could let me know if my First Suit is of high quality, or really any other information about it. I got off of work...
