Frequently Asked Questions
Sizing & Fit
How do I find the right size?
Each product page includes a size chart in the description section. Our suits and tuxedos follow standard US sizing (36-48 with regular and long options). Waistcoats use S-XXL sizing. If you are between sizes, we recommend going up for a more comfortable fit, especially for slim-cut styles.
What is the difference between tailored fit and slim fit?
Tailored fit offers a clean silhouette with slightly more room through the chest and waist — ideal for men who want a sharp look without a restrictive feel. Slim fit is cut closer to the body throughout, with a narrower shoulder and tapered waist. Both are modern cuts; the choice depends on your body type and comfort preference.
Can I get my suit altered?
Yes. We recommend having your suit pants hemmed to your exact inseam and the jacket sleeves adjusted if needed. Any reputable tailor can make these standard adjustments. The suit is constructed to allow for common alterations.

Product Care
How should I care for my suit or tuxedo?
Most of our wool blend and polyester-wool garments are dry clean only. Always check the care label inside the garment. Hang suits on wide wooden hangers to maintain shoulder shape, and store in a breathable garment bag.
Can I machine wash the waistcoats?
It depends on the fabric. Wool and silk jacquard waistcoats should be dry cleaned. Check the care label for specific instructions. Velvet waistcoats should be dry cleaned to maintain the pile.
