custom suits

Made-to-measure formalwear

Custom suits are men's formal garments made to individual specifications rather than bought off the rack.

The term encompasses both bespoke suits—constructed from scratch to a client's measurements—and made-to-measure suits, which modify existing patterns.

Custom suits imply higher quality, better fit, and greater expense than ready-made alternatives: He had his custom suits made in Hong Kong.
