Why choose this royal blue suit
-
Fine Italian wool. Super 150s is a fine worsted wool with a smooth, soft hand and a clean drape, made in Italy at a 270 gm weight. The rich blue colour looks deep and even across the whole suit.
-
Half-canvassed jacket. A layer of canvas runs through the chest and lapels, so the jacket moulds to you over time and the lapel rolls naturally instead of lying flat.
-
Bemberg lining. Bemberg cupro breathes and handles moisture better than polyester, so the jacket feels cooler and slides on and off easily. The navy lining sits quietly inside the brighter blue cloth.
-
Side vents. Two vents let the jacket move with you and sit cleanly when you sit down or put your hands in your pockets.
-
Made to your size. Choose a standard jacket size and length, give us your body measurements, or send the measurements of a suit that already fits you well.
When to wear a royal blue suit
Royal blue is the confident step up from navy. Wear it to a wedding or evening event with a white shirt and a black or silver tie, to a dinner or celebration where you want to be noticed, or to a creative or client-facing day at work. It is bolder than navy or charcoal, so for the most conservative offices a darker suit is the safer pick. Black leather shoes suit it best.
How to order your size
Standard size. Choose your jacket size (36 to 52), your length (Short, Regular or Long) and your trouser waist and inseam.
My measurements. Enter your chest, stomach, seat, shoulder, jacket length, sleeve, trouser waist and inseam, with your height and weight. We add the right ease for the fit you choose.
My favourite suit. Lay a suit that fits you well flat and measure it. We copy those numbers.
Every measurement has a picture guide, and our suit size guide explains each one. Browse the full custom suits collection, or pair this suit with a custom dress shirt. Prefer a more classic colour?

Frequently asked questions
What is a Super 150s wool suit?
Super 150s describes how fine the wool fibres are. A higher number means finer fibres, which gives a softer, smoother cloth with a refined drape.
What is the difference between a royal blue and a navy suit?
Navy is a very dark blue that reads almost black in low light. Royal blue is a brighter, more saturated blue that stands out. Navy is the safer choice for conservative business settings, while royal blue makes a stronger style statement.
Is a royal blue suit good for a wedding?
Yes. Royal blue is a popular choice for a groom, groomsman or wedding guest who wants colour. Pair it with a white shirt, a black or silver tie and black shoes.
What does half-canvassed mean?
A half-canvassed jacket has a floating layer of canvas sewn through the chest and lapels instead of being glued. It gives the jacket shape, a natural lapel roll and a longer life than a fused jacket.
Is this suit made to measure?
Yes. Every suit is cut and sewn to order for one person in our atelier, from a standard size you choose or from your own measurements.
What is included?
A two-piece suit: the jacket and the matching trousers in the same blue Super 150s wool.
How long does it take to make and deliver?
Your suit is made in 10 to 12 working days, or 3 to 5 working days with urgent stitching on request. Shipping is free worldwide and tracked: delivery after dispatch takes 8 to 10 working days to the USA, UK, Canada and Europe, 7 to 8 to the Middle East and 10 to 12 to the rest of the world.
How do I care for a wool suit?
Dry clean only, and not too often. Hang the suit on a shaped hanger, brush it after wearing and let it rest a day between wears so the wool can recover.
