M2N's Very First Custom Suit

[mimesis2nemesis]

Ok, this is how the back pockets look like:







And I really liked the construction of the inside pockets (Btw, does anybody know the name of that detail under the armpits?):



And since I hadn't posted a photo of me from the front, here's how the suit jacket looks when buttoned:

Thanks

The pockets look very neat, do you find the zips on the back pockets easy to use? The inside pockets are neat as well - unusual -more normally have their mouths bound in the lining material but very neat. I usually have zips on some of the inside pockets but buttons on the back pockets.

Not sure if the pad at the armpits has a name, it is supposed to act as a barrier if you sweat in hotter climes, suits from Hong Kong and other Asian tailors often have it though I don't likme them myself.

You have a good looking suit, look forward to seeing your next commission.

Thank you very much, I really like it. For the time being i'll call that detail the armpit pad What I found curious was that the pockets in my grand uncle's suit are constructed in a similar way... And this is a detail that the tailor showed me way before I decided to use his services... Maybe It was a common practice back in the 1950s? I guess we'll never really know... BTW, about the zippers, I rarely use my back pockets, but when I do I use them to keep my wallet or similar items, and I feel a lot more secure with the zippers than with the buttons. For the next one I'll probably use both the buttons and the zippers, but I'm not sure yet...

Well done mate. I bet you feel a million bucks sauntering down the street! Nice colour blue as well.
