Gentlemen,

I love vintage clothing, but have an... unusual... physique.

At 5'-7" and 280 (somewhat) muscular pounds I seldom (read "never") find anything original that fits me except hats and neckties. :rolleyes:

I've had custom or bespoke clothing made before; mostly shirts and trousers, with a rare jacket thrown in on occasion. There is a traveling bespoke tailor, "The Custom Shop", having a trunk show in Boston this week. Have any of you had clothing made to fit by this gentleman? I'd like to bring him a few vintage items so he can fabricate similar items in my ridiculous size.

Your help, fellas, is always appreciated.

Cheers,

Tim
