i was too lazy to wear a belt during the fitting, and wore the pants at the hips, a bit below my cute pot-belly. but i've tried the pants again with the belt and the breaks were considerably lesser.

i think the back is a bit weird, although i can't pinpoint exactly what it is but i love how it accentuates my figure.

here are pictures of the pants pockets i asked the tailor to do:

i dunno what it's called. double pocket? both pockets are full pockets with similar room. but its only on the right, the left pocket only has one pocket. Got the idea from my ted baker smart jeans. can't find the original jeans maybe ill post it up later.

the cloth looks familiar... i may have a pair of pants made from the same material or similar pattern/texture.

WTF you went to AL?

The Granoff has the best buttonholes. Can't believe Bespoked at their incredible prices would thau kung kam liew like that.

Please show your AL jacket on you, I want to see the fit.

Lanatir does awesome Macro shots. I think he will only be happy until he lands a nanoscope.  brows.gif

well imho, since Jerrick at Bespoked has done my clothes for about a decade or so, he knows my fit and requires the least coaching. but as mentioned, they are pricey and the detailing requires additional modular pricing.

ALT is great for people who know what they want and can take the extra effort to obtain materials themselves to bring it to him. I would not hesitate to commission him to do more clothes.

I really like Granoff's attention to detail and their inhouse choice of materials is the most varied. but they are the priciest. furthermore, i like their fit the least (on the only product i have from them) probably because their clientele consists of politicians and datuks/tan sris.
