| O'Henry Big Menswear offer a wide range of cloth options from Studio Italia, Boston, Rembrandt and Kent & Lloyd. There is the flexibility of the Rembrandt separates range that allows you to mix and match jackets and trousers. There are 2-trouser suits available from Studio Italia, Kent & Lloyd and Boston, the second trouser is estimated to prolong the life of the suits by up to 4 times and not 2 as you'd expect, the reason being that the trousers are given as long as possible between wears to lose any dampness due to perspiration and also to return to their original shape. The new Kent and Lloyd Perfomance Collection consists of suit separates up to size 156. Black,charcoal and black charcoal rib stripe are available with a second pair of trousers.These separates are hard wearing,durable,crease resistant and great value at $550 ;making it the must have suit for winter. As an adjunct to our extensive suit offer there is the option of Personal Tailoring, we currently have over 1,000 designs for you to choose from. We also stock extra, extra long suits in three cloths, a plain charcoal, a plain black and a charcoal herringbone stripe. They all come with extra trousers and are priced at $695. Did you know that the term suit comes from the French suite, meaning matching set and that they were the first country to favour wearing a jacket and trouser in the same cloth. The suit as we know it today is far lighter than those of years gone by; new production methods and the use of finer cloths and lighter weight internals mean that the suits that you will see on show at O'Henry's today are 30% lighter in overall weight than those of fifty years ago; also with air conditioning in summer and central heating in winter there isn't such a demand for flannels and the like; if you feel the cold or are going to colder climes, please let us know and we'll endeavour to source something from our wide range of suppliers or make something for you. |
