FAQs
Where can I buy 'Long' suits?
Brooks Brothers, Indochino MTM, SuitSupply, J. Crew (Long sizes), Macy's (Hart Schaffner Marx Long). Most major retailers carry up to 50L; for above 50L, custom or made-to-measure required.
Three-piece vs two-piece for tall?
Either works. Three-piece can be even more flattering on tall frame because the vest breaks up the long torso visually. Avoid double-breasted unless you're heavy-built — narrow tall in DB looks awkward.
