A well-chosen suit is one of the foundations of a classic men’s wardrobe. Here you will find answers to the most common questions to help with choosing the right material, cut, and construction.

Frequently asked questions

How should I choose a men’s suit?
The key factors are the intended use, material, cut, and construction. For most situations, a versatile wool suit in navy or grey is usually the strongest choice.
Is a wool suit the best choice?
In most cases, yes. Wool is the most versatile material for a men’s suit, it holds its shape well, and it works in both business and more formal settings. In the current suit category, wool is also the dominant material across the selection.
Is it worth buying a pre-owned suit?
Yes, provided it has been selected well and is in the right condition. A quality pre-owned or vintage suit can offer better material, stronger character, and better value than standard ready-to-wear. On the suits page, there is a visible mix of pre-owned, vintage, and archival pieces.
What does half-canvas mean in a suit?
Half-canvas refers to a construction in which the front of the jacket is partially reinforced with canvas. The result is usually better shaping and a more natural drape than with fused construction. In the current category, this parameter appears directly in one of the products.
