Well, I may be interested! How are measurements? What about chest/shoulder padding?

 

[Mathematicus]

God, my post was swallowed by the huge amount of classified!

 

[Fastuni]

I will measure it up this weekend! You are first in line for this suit.

 

[bsharpblues]

I m interested too! can u send me the measurements as well?
thanks much!

 

[Fastuni]

Apologies to both of you. I was too busy/distracted and couldn't measure it up yet. Can do so next weekend... that is the first weekend in November.

 

[Mathematicus]

Did you have chances to get measurements?

 

[Fastuni]

Not yet unfortunately. But certainly this weekend. Perhaps already Friday. Thanks for your patience.

 

[Fastuni]

Here now the measurements:
Shoulder 44 cm
Chest 53 cm
Sleeve 63.5 cm + 4 cm to let out
Back 78 cm (including 3.5 cm collar)
Waist (Jacket flat) 47 cm

Waist Trousers (doubled) 84 cm + 3 cm to let out
Inleg 73 cm (nothing to let out)

Sadly, trousers are way too short for me

 

[bsharpblues]

Yeah the pants are short for me by a little too. How long is the rise though? maybe if i wear them lower i can pass it off, since there is nothing to let out at the legs.

 

[Mathematicus]

From my experience in continental tailoring, pants have usually very high rise and "sit lower" than the actual crotch. So it's OK to have them shorter that the natural inseam, by about 0.5-1 inch depending from the way you like the back of the pants.

 

[bsharpblues]

It's still a risk for me. The inseam is short by abt 1.5" and i have to take in the waist by 1" too. i ll pass on it first. Unless the price drops!
