I like the roped shoulders on a more formal suit.

that's not just roping; that's pagoda. Won't get that unless you go to somewhere that really knows their *****.

If it's a three piece suit, don't u have to wear the vest with the suit together so that they all wear out at the same rate? And, with all that goes into bespoke suits, wouldn't u want to wear at least a tie with them all the time and leave the business casual look to your OTR suits?

Nice Pagoda. The sleeve cap might not be for everyone though.

Who's the maker? Local?

Did 2 fittings along the way besides initial measurements...one midwayish and one final which very small alterations needed to be done. Cost was $1600 + tax = $1808 for 3 piece. H&S S140 fully canvassed. I will start with some pics of just the suit and will have a couple taken wearing for fit. I am very pleased with Raymonds work he is a pro and I would highly recommend! Same pinstripe in black started and then will do some greys, a herringbone solid and a flashier pattern..More pics will come.

It will be a while. Their MTM process does not include a test fit and I've argued with them on that. The SA is going to contact the MTM program manager in Vancouver to get permission for a test fit. I've stressed to them more than once that I want this suit to be perfect otherwise I won't take it.

I go with 41 in Milano fit, 39 in Regent, 40 in Fitz, which is why it was a surprise to me when the 40 Madison fitted me well.

In comparison, I am a 40 in SS Havana, La Spalla, and Lazio.

Have come across it before, have not seen it being discussed too much.

Wow didn't know there was a thread about M2M! Been thinking of a M2M suit, but not looking to spend $2k. I have a Hugo Boss suit that I paid about $1200 and it still needed to be altered! I'm short but very fit/athletic body, so its hard for me to find a proper fitting suit. I am around a 38S or 40S slim fit.

The closest OTR suit is the CK X-Fit. At Stars they also have an M2M from a Montreal suit company I just forgot the name. I'm leaning towards them, anyone know the name and how good they are?

Any thing I should know? I'm from KW area but would be willing to drive to Toronto.

Hey gents, was hoping for a little advice/suggestion. Getting married in July (Toronto) and looking to have suits made for myself and 6 other guys. I had a custom suit done at Zeglios last summer for a friends wedding and paid just over $700 and it's a great M2M. Zeglios moved and it's under new ownership now. I am going to check out Mederation and Eric Sana (at old Zeglio location), any other suggestions?

It's for my wedding, i'm think to wear a black bow tie, white shirt, white pocket square, and a boutonniere. The suit still need minor alteration, waist, trouser length, etc. But do you think in general it fits me well or it's a poor fit. on the scale of 10, 1 being very pool, 6 is pass, 10 for excellent. how would you rate it? Thank you in advance!

There are creases on the front and back. Fit looks off.

Went back to BB for the try-on suit. Given that it's just a bare shell the fit is pretty good. Only problems are it's a bit tight (need to loosen 1.25") and the sleeves are half inch too long. Jacket length and backside fit are spot on.

Another 3-4 weeks wait.
