A lot of men tend to play it safe and stick to what they know because they are not confident in finding the right clothing. Chances are, they don't know how a suit should fit, or they think that getting something custom made is too expensive or a waste of money.
I have to disagree. If you can afford to have a suit custom made you will feel and look a hundred times better. You may not think people will notice the fact that your trousers are a little too long/short or that your sleeves don't fit quite right, but it does ruin the whole finish and will make you look scruffy. This isn't always an issue, but if you have a high powered career and need to be taken seriously, quality clothing will make the right impression.
I have included below links to pages from A Tailored Suit's style guide. These articles have been written by people who know the importance of looking good. The guide is pretty comprehensive, there isn't much else you need to know. Take a read and let me know what you think.
