By PH Davis Tailoring of Cincinnati, Ohio. This suit is in excellent vintage condition, with no holes, stains, odors to note.
Please Note: We list the Suit Size in the Title. A "Suit Size" is taken from your actual chest measurement. While we'd like a well-fitted suit, we don't want a skin-tight suit, so the actual jacket chest measurement is generally a few inches larger.

This vintage tux was absolutely gorgeous, but unfortunately it did not fit my husband. However, Sam was great to work with; will definitely check this shop out again!
