Latest three piece OTR suits?

[Picard1138]

Gentlemen,

It's been a while, as I have been very busy. Good to know that the Lounge still exists after my long absence.

My question for today is; Any good three piece suits on the regular OTR market nowadays? I have one from Joseph Bank which is actually rather nicely cut and I wear it frequently to work. Anyone have any suggestions for brick and mortar stores? If not, I'm tempted to go with one of the bespoke online tailors, and I recall MyCustomTailor being a decent site a while back. Worst comes to worst, I'll save up and have a chat with Mr. Deckard, of course.

In this case I'm looking for an every day work suit, and for me that means 1950s, or earlier styling, and not terribly expensive.

Any ideas?

Thank you all,

-Max

I'm thinking there's next to nothing that meets all those needs.

Agreed. I don't think you will find inexpensive pre-1950s styles OTR.

3 pieces are more frequently popping up as part of OTR lines, but the rise of the trousers usually means your shirt tail is poking out beneath the vest. But perhaps a tailor could work some magic? I 'm thinking about the 3 piece suits at places like J Crew and Brooks.

Ah, J Crew will certainly have low sitting trousers, as does this shamefully low Brooks Brother's suit: http://www.brooksbrothers.com/Cambridge-Three-Piece-Suit/MK00202_____MDGY_36___SH__,default,pd.html


I've seen reviews before, but how's the luck with online custom tailors in the East?

If all else fails, I think I may just get a few more Joseph Bank 3-pieces in different fabrics, and perhaps mix and match waistcoats.

Why don't you give Luxire a try? They would even copy a vintage suit you send them or work off pictures. So far they show a lot of quality and dedication. I have only ordered their shirts, but they offer trousers and jackets now as well.
