Way too big
Size: XX-Large, Color: Light Gray
Can't really speak to the quality of the suit as it was only tried on, but the look was nice enough. Purchased based on measurements and sizing guide and it was huge. Probably could have gone 2 sizes down but didn't have time to reorder in a different size so just returned. Ordered XXL for son who is 6ft and 220lbs. He wears a large to XL in most tops and a 33x34 in most jeans. Many reviews advised to size up. He was drowning in the XXL. Color was nice light gray.

I sized down
Size: Large, Color: Navy Blue
This suit fit very well! And looks very sharp. It looks great with or without the jacket. I had to size down from my normal large to a medium, but as someone who’s skinny tall, I’ve always wavered between medium and large.

Very pleasantly suprised - good quality, for a great price!
Size: Large, Color: Black
I ordered this suit for my son, for Prom. I was nervous that it was going to be poor quality, or the fit would be really off, but was absolutely blown away by the quality, for the price. ..its a great deal for good quality. Especially for young men. For reference, my son is tall (6'2") and medium/slender build. He usually wears about a 33" waist. I ordered him a Large but maybe could have gone XL. It does seem to be a slimmer fit. He doesn't usually wear XL in anything.
