Men's Wearhouse Custom Suit Revisted |One Year Review | Is It Really Worth It?

Nice series. I'm glad you revisited the suit. It's nice to see how it held up and it gives you a chance to give a real retrospective. I think you hit the nail on the head. MW is EVERYWHERE. Custom suiting is a must for the well dressed guy. Now that you told me MW lacks in the number of measurements, I would take the plunge online. You will have to measure yourself but you will probably come out with a better fitting suit. Fit is king....closely followed by fabric quality. I purchased off the rack from MW. I have a black, gray, and blue. They weren't Joseph Abboud. I got them under the 2/1 special and 50% off the blue. Joseph Abboud is a little nicer than the suits I purchased. The suits looked good on me but I think that's because I'm tallish, black, and I have a nice build. After watching utube videos, I never looked at those suits the same haha. The tailoring was off. The sleeves were too long, too boxy in the body, the pants needed to be slimmed, and they were too long. I recently purchased a custom suit from Daniel George. He's a custom suit designer in San Francisco (where I live) and Chicago. It cost an arm and a leg but I LOVE my new suit as does everyone that comes into contact with me haha. I'll probably wear the black MW suit to funerals or something that requires a black suit but I don't expect to ever wear the gray or blue suit anymore.

Great review. I look great in my Joe suits, but I'm definitely going to check out the other options you mentioned. Thanks!!!

Thank you for making this! It’s my first suit this year and I learned a lot from you. I almost got one from MW yesterday but I would rather shop around since I plan to have my suit and take pride in it.

I currently work for Tailored Brands at Men’s Wearhouse and if you get a Range 1 it’s is made over seas and it is a true custom and the accuracy of the measurements depends on the training and experience of the Wardrobe Consultant.

I worked at men’s Wearhouse and sold over 100k in custom every year before pandemic.. whoever did your custom should’ve put you in classic fit pants because of your thighs and would’ve made the adjustments in the system to taper them from the knee to the bottom.. st the end of the day for $395 “custom” suit with lifetime alterations is the best value in the store. The custom Jospeh abboud is the best, those start at $799-$999 after pandemic those will last 15-20 years.

Solid advice bro...it's always great to take a step back and look at it from a new and fresh perspective. I finally found my personal style and what I love. The problem is it's expensive af lmao great vid my man!

I'm a mom and I want to buy my son a well fitted suite for his highschool graduation his never had one before!! So thank you for this video!

Awesome choice of topic. Thank you! Yeah so what with all the Pats thinking. We'll see how that rolls! Cheers!

Were will you go for your next suit besides suit supply?

Good on you Ian. You told it like it is, go Pats!

Went to MW for the first time today. Very impressed.

Amazing review bro! I just subscribed to your channel. As a former employee of Tailored Brands (Men’s Wearhouse), I have roughly 4 of their made to measure suits. As an aspiring suit and menswear connoisseur, it is not a true custom. I am glad that you pointed that out in your review. It’s almost as if you are buying separates and adding a few bells and whistles to the suit. I believe that Men’s Wearhouse has hit the nail on the head with bridging the gap between quality, price and customization of fit, but a true discerning gentleman such as you and me, are most likely looking for a brand that allows a bit more creative options for a suit. The guy that’s a hard fit or has already purchased all the other blue suits off the rack, this is the perfect made to measure program for him. I’ve had the opportunity to purchase suits from Indochino. Again, not a true custom, however the prices are a bit more considerable and they don’t make you pay for extras such as functioning buttonholes or monogramming. And there are a lot more customizations that are available. The measuring process is a bit more in depth too. Again, great review. 😀

Great example of the style journey. I also started w/ MW way back in the day when I felt like my go-to wardrobe needed to advance from printed tees, baggy jeans, sneakers to SC, dress shirt, ankle boots. Huge positive difference in how 1st impressions went and improved bottle service lol. So much has changed since those days and so many more resources such as style blogs, YouTube style influencers, and e-commerce markets that just were not available or on the radar 3,6,10 yrs ago.

The 360 view with the jacket was fire! Very nice fit.

Is the shoulder padded? I was considering getting my husband a custom made suit there but now I am thinking about maybe going somewhere else. Some vidoes were saying if you already have built up shoulders from being athletic, you don't need a padded shoulder. My husband is very athletic like you and fitting him is going to be very difficult, hence just go custom!

Can you adjust the suit after it’s been made? For example, if the pants aren’t slim fit and look loose, are you allowed to adjust them?

Very helpful, thanks!

Right on time with this video. I considering purchasing a custom suit from Men's Wearhouse or indichino.

I am at work now so i can't listen to the review yet, but interested in your experience with them. I got one about 3 months ago and i love it!

Great video if possible I would recommend indochino the measurement process is more detailed and they do have stores
