Hey.. I'm 19 and i'm having my prom in about 3 weeks.. just bought a suit in a hurry.. the suits fits well, except the sleeves... they're too long .. the problem is that there are 3 buttons there... may it be shortened ? I looks like it belongs to my father... I've contacted 3 tailors in town .. hope they respond my e-mail tomorrow ... i'm stressed about it.. so.. can it be done ?

Hi Aaron, Thanks for the videos. Very informative. Been thinking to buy a sport coat - my first!. Can you tell me what is the best coat to match with jeans and shirt on the inside - dont like the formal look. Am asking in terms of the type of cloth (cotton, wool, corduroy, etc) Some coats are double-lined and also with pads on the shoulders. Is it good to match these with jeans too? How about color or design? Would like a coat that's all-year round. Whats your suggestion regarding this?

What about shirt cuff length when wearing Cufflinks? They give you a chance to individualize more with cufflinks.. (which you can custom make)

I have a question. I bought a nice Hugo Boss suit from Ebay. The jacket measures out perfectly, but the pants are too big (I'm a 32 and the pants are 35) Could these be altered to my size or did I just waste my money?

Go to your nearest menswear and ask if they carry cruise-wear, January and February is cruise time in most reputable men's shops
It sounds like you and me are actually very close in size, which makes me pay even more attention to what you're saying. I generally get a 40S, but the waist is always too large and makes me look bulky and odd. I generally get things fitted but it seems like even altered they don't get nearly enough. i was thinking maybe I was wrong and that was the style but with your fit test, they are still too big. How can I get the people altering to alter the jackets enough?

@jfknightom Try a 39S or even a 38S. When I get officially measured in a store, I am a 43S, but the 39S works the best. Also, look for athletic cut. This should help and cut down on the alterations.

Hey Aaron, I like the idea you have regarding the pocket square - problem is, most suite jackets seem to have a 'fake' pocket these days. Any idea how to overcome this?

@JustifyJustin The pockets are just stitched closed. All you do is cut the stitch and pull out the string and you are ready
