    A few words on sizing:
    Since many suits aren't marked, I go by measurements to determine size.  Also be aware that sometimes a suit is marked, but it doesn't match the measurements. If you aren't sure of your size or the size of your own well-fitting jacket, there are a lot of guides on the internet to help you measure yourself and your jackets.  I use "askandyaboutclothes" "how to measure a men's suit jacket" as the basis for my measurements. I’m not affiliated with this guide, it just is the most user-friendly. Please take a little time to check your measurements, before you invest in a suit.

    I carefully inspect each garment and report any flaws to prospective buyers.  I will not accept any returns simply because the buyer failed to read the description or look at the pictures. By reading this you accept the personal responsibility to purchase the item with this disclaimer in mind.
