Spier and Mackay Suiting?
I have big legs too, and so long as you’re honest with your measurements, you won’t go wrong. You can also go custom if it’s a major issue.

Spier and Mackay Suiting?
Compared to SuitSupply (its main competitor in the segment), their Contemporary Fit is much more forgiving for people who aren’t tall and slim. I own several suits from them, and their sizing is consistent, but remember to do things like size up slightly for fabrics with less/no give.

Did I err in buying an all purpose dark navy suit with spalla camicia shoulders...
There are only a tiny percentage of people who’d be insulted by the shoulder of your suit. As an overthinker myself, you’re probably overthinking it. Unless you live/work in a suit-heavy place, only the most conservative of environments will be upset at you for this.

Wearing Clothes Off-Season - Topic of the day 2/5/25
I live in the SoCal desert, so there’s a really nebulous sense of “in season.” I wear summer clothes into November, Fall-like clothes until March, and then back to summer

Recommendations on trousers to wear with this jacket?
Maybe not an Oxford. Maybe a split toe, with pebble grain or something?

Recommendations on trousers to wear with this jacket?
See, these look great IMO. I object to your shoes, but that might be just what you had nearby.
I think your green chinos are a little washed out for Fall, but it’d look great in early Spring, with some less severe shoes.
