Proper Fit

Suits and Sport Coats

The old joke goes something like this:

A young man walks into a job interview in an obviously misfit suit. The shoulders are two sizes too big, the sleeves hang past his fingers, and it is apparent the potential worker has no idea anything is amiss.

The interviewer tells him, “I’m sorry, you are not the type of sales associate we are looking for, but we would like to know the name of the man who sold you that suit!”

Utah Woolen Mills Clothiers will walk you through every point of fit on the suit and pants. Every man is built differently, but the fit should remain the same; perfect.

Slacks

One of the most important parts to any man’s wardrobe is the trouser. The problem for many men is getting the trouser that fits them and compliments their body.

If you have long legs and a short torso, then you need a long rise slack so that the pant doesn’t ride down at your crotch. If you have a large belly, you should wear braces (the proper name for dress suspenders) so that you can wear the pant up where it should be without it falling down. Wearing braces will also reduce the appearance of a large stomach because your pant doesn’t fall below it.
