Macy’s doesn’t really carry conventionally “great” suits - certainly not many where worrying about canvassing is really needed, as it’s probably fused and not floating anyway. Your best options there are probably going to be whatever they have that’s Ralph Lauren, or maybe brooks brothers; most everything is going to be some blend with poly and have canvassing unlisted. If you happen to have a Neiman Marcus or a Nordstrom nearby, those are likely better options if you’re concerned about quality.

If your budget is still $200, don't worry about canvassing and just try to get something that is all or mostly wool.

I see yeah. I mean my dads budget is a bit higher I guess but still want something less expensive Just want to find something in store to try on Places like suit supply are too expensive I’m wondering if a spier and Mackey will fit him Is there anything in macys that will fit similar to the spider and Mackey to try on

If you’re going to Macy’s I guess you could try taking shots at Nordstrom rack to see if there’s any returns

Hmm idk what that is lol Here I have his measurements Maybe someone can help.. cuz I don’t think he will fit a spider and Mackey but maybe Shoulder 18.5 Chest 40 Waist 38 Pant waist 37.5 Arm 25 Inseam 30 suit Lenght 29 The spier and macaky40R is: 44.1 chest which should fit? Maybe a bit large? But only a 39.4 waist I’m unsure if the waist is too small or the chest is too big for him? I read u want 2-3 inches of allowance over ur actual measurements But they do say the waist can be taken out a bit by a tailor? Idk if this is expensive to do

I would be stunned if anyone here would be able to know how Macy’s suits would fit tbh Y’all should just go to the store and start trying stuff on if you’re dead set on macys

I know. I don’t know what you’re asking then If you’re not buying Spier Mackay why does the SM measurements matter
Bread
BreadOP2w ago
The measures. If they will fit the measures for the s&m
zeometer
zeometer2w ago
depends on the Nordstrom size; the big ones may have canali but that will probably be above budget considerably

It def will His budget is prob 400 It’s a huge Nordstroms

Just try stuff on man
zeometer

the most impactful thing you can do is try stuff on to get a handle on sizing, and/or use the previous suit as a guide this is almost certainly too large imo the allowance you speak of is in almost all cases already factored in; i'm a 40R and my normal fit jackets are 21" pit to pit, which would correspond to 42" of circumference and give that extra bit of room for range of motion assuming i'm reading right and the spier suit has the 39.4" waist vs your 37.5" you should also fit it and in fact would probably need it taken in
Bread
BreadOP2w ago
No the suit waist is a 38 Pant is 37.5 So 1.4 inch over Then sizing down to get chest proper would make the waist way too small So I don’t think it will fit?
zeometer
zeometer2w ago
oh, if your/his waist is 39.4 it's not gonna fit a 38 unless there's seam allowance built in (as mentioned above)
Bread
BreadOP2w ago
No the SUIT is 39.4 💀 There is a seam allowance I think 1.5 inches 42.5 , 37.8 is the measure for the size 38 suit Which would fit chest but waist too small then? There’s a 1.5 inch seam allow so could get it to 39.3 But that seems tight for a 38 inch waist
zeometer
zeometer2w ago
it's a little tight imo might need to pivot to a different brand

Yeah I’m heading to Nordstroms We’ll see what they got

the "best" thing from spier i saw eas the contemporary ffit of this but even then it's a little big all around (perhaps by design; it could be altered but might not be worth the extra cost) https://www.spierandmackay.com/product/black-brushed-wool-suit-9725-ns01-nt01

Honestly girl with your budget I would just go try on everything under $200 and buy whatever looks the best on you. I feel like below a certain price it just doesn’t make sense to worry about canvassing and craftsmanship that much. It will all be sort of shitty, but you can at least find something that fits you well and looks good.

Had him try on every suit there and they all fit weirdly I think I’m going to order the spier and Mackey for him and have it tailored I’m guessing the size 40 He was a 42 in a lot at Macys though but the measures work out for an40 Spier also has other suits Looking at those firs

Bread I don’t think Spier is going to fit you well at all. Idk about your dad tho. Also what others said. At $200 stop worrying about stuff like canvassing. You’re trying to just get a fabric that has no synthetics/is all wool at that price point.

Which would best fit a 40.5 chest and 38 waist?

Suit supply is great
Bread
BreadOP2w ago
Ok change lol I measured him again he’s a 40.5 chest and 38 waist So. 43.3 and 39 chest and waist? Or a 44.1 chest and waist The 44.1 will fit his shoulders better at 18.5 measure

He’d want either a 40 or a 42 - I’d suggest the contemporary cut, where possible. Also keep in mind that Spier usually defaults to drop 6 unless you ask for a trouser swap, so a 40 or a 42 suit will have a size 34 or 36 trouser. Spier tends to be cut on the trimmer size of suiting, so I’d err a little large on trousers especially.
Bread
BreadOP2w ago
The tailor cut won’t work? It seems the best sized for him Most suits in Macys he was more comfy in a 42 the 40 was too tight But the measures match the spier 40 For a Macys 42..?
zeometer
zeometer2w ago
some of macys suits are cut slim so (hypothetically) a tagged 40R may only have a 41" chest circumference
thomas
thomas2w ago
If it was me, and I was more comfy on average in a 42, I would just get a 42.
zeometer
zeometer2w ago
different brands size their stuff differently; get what he feels comfortable in regardless of tagged size
thomas
thomas2w ago
Usually a jacket should have a little bit of room for the sake of drape and comfort—imagine if you wanted to layer a sweater under it or something in the winter, there should be room for that. Also why you usually want to choose the bigger size if you’re between sizes. So it’s probably not a big deal if the spier suit measurements are slightly larger on average. Yeah it’s solid in the price range if you can afford it.
Bread
BreadOP2w ago
So the 42 has a like 45 inch chest measure His chest is 40.5 with a tape measure Won’t that be way too big?
thomas
thomas2w ago
I see, maybe size based on his measurements then
