F*ing suits....
 
Why don't they make a suit jacket designed for someone that is not a couch potato?

I can't afford a custom made suit so I feel like I am wearing a straight jacket.

You bought the wrong size.

I just threw my 400$ Ck away - I guess i should have tried to sell it on CL - but the immediate available space it provided was well worth it.

I'd like to recommend Calvin Klein as you brand you look in to. Good luck.

Buy the correct size, and then have it altered for fine-tuning. You won't get a suit that fits properly off the rack.

My favorites are Kenneth Cole. Good price/quality ratio.

I'll pay the shipping if the next one you want to throw away happens to be a 42-44 R. :D

The guy fitted you wrong.

I have to buy suits and have them tailored because my shoulders are very broad so I generally have to have the sleeves shortened and have the waist taken in a bit.

I actually found great fits and K&G wearhouse in KC. They have a lot of slim fit suits.

I always envisioned penguinz as more of a tuxedo guy.

I thought it wasn't fitted properly as well. Took it back in and talked to a different tailor and he said it was fitted correctly.

When you say you feel like you are in a straight jacket, do you mean the shoulders feel tight and when you cross your arms you feel like Chris Farley in David Spade's coat in Tommy Boy?

If that is the case, you have the wrong size jacket. The suit jacket is all about how it fits the shoulders. Find a good suit (I wear mostly Calvin Klein and Ralph Lauren suits) that fits your shoulders comfortably. The next step is to take the jacket to a professional tailor (not some jackass that works for the store where you bought the jacket) and have it tailored to fit you. Problem solved.
