The suit and shirt came earlier than promised but I was busy so I let it hang for a few days. Since I know how to press a suit, it was conceivable that I might have improved it a bit by giving it a good press so I shot it as it came out of the box. If I have time, I’ll give it a press and reshoot, to see if that makes much of a difference in the fit.<\/p>\n
I’ll get into more detail about it early next week, but here are some first impressions. On the whole, I’m pleasantly surprised for the most part.<\/p>\n
During the fitting process I let them do their thing. I wanted to get the “Indochino experience” so I didn’t guide them, with one exception. Readers will have to keep something in mind; when you go to Indochino you are getting a skinny, fashion-forward suit like you might find on the pages of GQ or Details. This is not bargain-basement Brioni, and if you are looking for classic proportions according to “whnay’s good taste” thread then you are looking in the wrong place. However I think it is good to have a point of view and to be very direct about it; there is too much half-baked clothing on the market which tries to be everything to everybody and thus fails in most things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
