Good Custom Tailors Spell the Difference

There is a fine line that a man threads upon between exuding stylish confidence and being dull and uninteresting especially in the way he dresses himself up. And the fine line is all about having a bit of a help from custom tailors as opposed to merely walking to the nearest department store and randomly selecting one’s clothing attire.

A good custom tailor in your area, or trusted and proven visiting tailors from another city or country, whom you can rely upon to fill up your wardrobe closet with men’s suits; suits that are not only handcrafted excellently with good quality suiting and shirting material but, more importantly, would fit your body like a glove.

Only when these two criteria are basically satisfied can a man truly exude stylish confidence, which essentially comes from knowing and ‘feeling’ that he looks darn good in his choice of clothing attire. The admiring glances from onlookers and compliments from work colleagues can only add more boost in one’s self esteem.

The reason why a good custom tailor can spell difference between a good fit of suit and a suit that is maybe a designer brand, but nonetheless an off the peg one (read: mass manufactured by machines) is that a good custom tailor would be able to tweak the fit and shape of the suit according to the exact and precise size measurements and figurations of the wearer’s body. Read: tailored fit to your body.

And that small tweaks to your custom suits do make the difference in having that stylish confidence and to being dull and lackluster because of a shabbily made suit and dress shirt.

On the other hand, it is not uncommon practice for a man to buy a ready to wear suit, which is in some cases like branded ones can cost almost as much as the custom tailored ones, only to realize a little too late that they needed to take it to a local alteration shop to get that decent enough fit.

In certain cases, an alteration job does the trick especially if the pants are just an inch or two too wide or too tight. But more than one and a half inch adjustment jobs can already get a little tricky, if not unlikely already.

Indeed, sometimes ready to wear suits may be cheaper and easy to acquire –one just goes to the nearest department store-, but in the long run off the rack suits are actually expensive and more stressful because of all the needed alterations and the workmanship quality.

In the end, good custom tailors is the fine line between a good suit and bad one, a man who exudes stylish confidence and one who is looks dull and uninteresting.
