I think he's looking for some kind of feedback on your experience.

EDIT: Ah, the bastard beat me to it.

I think he said their custom jackets start at about $500. And their custom suits start at $995. Something like that.

If you walk in, they'll give you color/material samples and a color catalog. All their suits are hanging in the showroom and you can customize colors and perforation. They've got blk and silver carbon like materials which I like for accentuating certain areas like the shoulders and such.

Customization is pretty much endless. Their perforated leather I believe was 1" between holes. I think it's more durable that way and less prone to tears.

They'll make it fit loose, which is more of the trend these days, tight, or spandex GP style if you want.

An all out custom suit w/multi colors is gonna set you back about $1500.

Really good service. Mom and pop type place. Very small. Turnaround time isn't very bad.. 2-4 weeks. Can't stress enough about actually going there and checking out their pre-made sample suits. Gives you a great idea of what you're will resemble.

Some suit patterns/design look outdated but you can specify and tell them to leave certain cuts off your suit.

Here's my suit:



It set me back $1650. The lettering was the most expensive.

Like Scarey said, it's best if you go in to get fitted. Turnaround time is about right, depending on how swamped they happen to be.

Ask for Adolph - he really knows his $hit.

Oh, and they're usually open on weekends - you just need to make an appointment. They probably won't be open THIS weekend, though...
