I think when I say the name “Suitsupply” people think flashy patterns, skinny suits, and ultra European style. And they are right. You can get all of those things at Suitsupply. But I’m here to tell you that you can also purchase some more traditional menswear items too. Don’t be turned away by a few flashy advertisements. However, be aware that most of Suitsupply’s cuts are a little more tailored than some other stores, so sizing can be a little tricky. I’m typically a 44R in the Brooks Brothers Regent cut, but I’m a 46R in Suitsupply’s Napoli, Havana, and Sienna cuts. I usually need the Havana to be let out just a little. Today, I wanted to take a look at the new Suitsupply Spring 2019 pre-order collection and pick out a few a my favorite items releasing later this spring. Cold weather is here now, but spring will be here soon enough.
I went to a wedding last fall wearing my navy blue Napoli suit, received so many compliments. There were guys there in more expensive suits (my Napoli was only $400), but not many had me beat on fit, proportions, and fabric. Suitsupply, is NOT fast fashion. For me, it is an ideal congruence of price and quality (i.e. you get what you pay for).
Recently, I was having a conversation online with Gabriel from The Mensch on Menswear (be sure to follow him on Instagram and Youtube) about whether I bought everything on sale on not. I described myself as a “value shopper” I try to find that best combination of price and quality. For me, the prices are Suitsupply are well worth the value of their products, plus they don’t really run sales either. So I have no qualms about pre-ordering anything because I know the quality is there, and I know I’m not going to get a better price. So I strike while the iron is hot! Additional Suitsupply offers free returns on any purchase, so everything is worth trying at home. So let’s take a look at my picks from the Suitsupply spring 2019 pre-order collection.
