Loved everything. Dad jokes especially. My dad and father-in-law are getting wedding suits for my wedding and you're definitely bringing me towaeds. Oliver wicks instead of indochino.
I’m going to compare Oliver wicks to hockerty tuxedos in a few weeks. I’d stay away from Indochino. Just my personal thoughts. The hockerty tux should be here in about 2 weeks so I should be able to review it a week later.
You’re welcome. I’ve got lots more suit reviews. More coming soon and I’m working on making more videos showing the best suits within certain price ranges.
Wore suits for many years. Tall and hard to fit. Never order a vest. Always order 2 pair of suit pants. Pants get worn all the time (unless you're wacky). Great for travel. If you total out a pair of pants, you still have a suit. Nice video.
My next purchase will be from Oliver Wicks. I've spent thousands on Hockerty and am ready to make the change. Oliver Wicks, give this man some credit/a suit.
@@TheDadBod congratulations on the wedding! I've been to too many weddings where the groom is wearing an ill fitting suit! You're going to look excellent!
Thank you! I try to stay unbiased. Too many people out there getting paid to do reviews and read the selling points like a commercial. Indochino does that. Nearly every video says the same thing but when I got my suit, it was not the quality Indochino stated. Wasn’t even the quality as the mannequins had in the store. That was a waste of hundreds of dollars I hope I can save others from.
My only issue with Oliver Wicks is that their pants only come in single pleats. I'm more of a double pleated guy. So as much as I'd love to purchase a suit with these guys, it's gonna have to be a "no" for me. Thanks for posting!
First I liked your reviews on Indochino. Was going to there showroom and get measured but too many negative reviews. You get "professionally" measured and it comes back too big or tight?? Now I have 4 suits from OW and let me tell you their customer service is top notch. I'm glad you got a good suit. We have a similar body type but I'm much older. Two of my suits had to get them altered,most common shoulder rolls. Other sleeve alignment, appears twisted and armholes too large. Still I like OW even if they take about a month to finish.
4 Oliver wicks. I’m jealous. I only have 2 so far. I want to get more but I also want to do reviews of other companies to help others. I need a suit supply, m tailor, and Lanieri. I’ll probably only get one of them this year and the rest next year. I usually have issues with my shoulders with suits. I have sloped shoulders.
I hope you can do a review on the Tailor Store dress shirts. OW dress shirts are too expensive BUT if you have a good fitting suit from them, their shirts would be good.
@@TheDadBod I’m ordering a high end suit and a shirt from my suit tailor for my wedding. In the $800 range. I’m curious to see how that stacks up to Oliver Wicks of same price. Getting swatches from Alex from Lora Piana which is supposed to be really high quality. Going all out with Alex .
I’d need to see you moving in the suit more, but the only thing that stands out to me are the shoulders. It looks like they need to be extended a bit if there’s going to be that much structure. I’d like to see how one of their jackets would look on you without the padding. Also, MAYBE lengthen the jacked .5 to 1cm?
you look amazing sir, great work on Oliver Wicks Part, Your Part For Sizing the Item, and The Amazing Luxuriously Looking Presentability. Amen, and God Bless always sir ;) . We hope to see you soon in the nearest and latest Oliver Wicks, or other Amazingly well known Custom, and Tailored Suits :) . "Lookin Sharp :D . " .
Half canvas or full canvas not explained. I do not know the difference and why one would have vs to the other? I’m thinking of ordering but it will be three button jacket not two. I think three button jacket looks and lays better. Two button jacket to me looks stunted!
That’s explained in my suit guide video. Half canvas is less expensive and a lighter. 2 vs 3 buttons is based on preference, height, and weight. 3 buttons makes me look taller when I’m already tall. Shorter v line from the suit.
@@TheDadBod now! Haha. You can get something really basic for $459.00 I believe, which is pretty reasonable. Something like 6 different blocks to choose from, including a 3 roll 2 option. 6 different shoulder choices etc etc. seems like a pretty good deal to me!
They don't offer enough customization for ym tastes. So, looks like there's a hole in the market Suit Supply have many more customization options, but quality isn't so goo.
It’s been a while but I thought I remembered the same. Nearly all offer the same. Fabric, lapels, buttons, lining, cuffed trousers. There are some that offer regular vs slim fit. I don’t remember if OW does that. And I think OW has all of theirs full canvas where some others offer full canvas as an upgrade. I’ll have to look on their site again at some point. It’s been a good year and a half or more.
@@TheDadBod Suit Supply, for trousers as an example, allows various pleat types, and lots of waistband options, such as the width, fastening type, extension type, and even Gurkha style. Half lining to knee, or full length. Color of the pocketing fabric. Various kinds of side adjusters. Different back pocket styles (I like buttonless, for example). That's what custom is all about - it's just the construction quality isn't quite there, and the measurement system on their website is terrible.
Made to measure tailor, like a bespoke tailor? I would prefer a bespoke suit. Ultimate luxury. But also very expensive. Thousands. Made to measure is a good middle ground between off the rack and bespoke. I have several made to measure suits. I love most of them.
@@TheDadBod so I got a indochino suit for a wedding, hands down one of the worst suits Iv ever had. And it wasn’t cheap cheap. I felt like it would have been better doing a off the rack with a tailor doing alterations. I have another wedding coming up in November and I’m looking to try another made to measure company. Full bespoke suit I definitely understand costs lot. I live in the New York area and they go for around 2k and up. We have a lot of tailors doing made to measure suits. I called around and they all said they make them in china and Italy. Only one tailor said they make in American. Alan David suits in nyc. They seam great, but they really start at around $1500 for a two piece. So I’m wondering if this is a better value with similar quality.
Indochino was the reason I started this channel. Was one of my first videos trying to warn people of what happened to me and what I got. Go with Oliver Wicks. I have tried about 15 MTM so far and they’re the best of the ones I’ve tried. Also the most expensive. I know other companies like Suit Supply, Black Lapel, and Lanieri are great but I haven’t tried them to be able to say per my own experiences. I can say for about 800, you can get an Oliver wicks suit you’ll be proud of. If you’re looking to go a little less, Sartoro. I like the Sartoro suit that I bought. I’m working on the review now in fact.
Thanks for the quick reply, I think I’m going to give them a try for this event. The price is within my range of what I wanna spend. And Sean like people have gotten good results with buying from them
The wide lapel so much better on you thank those small ones. Love the videos!
Thank you!
Great video! I too have recently found Oliver Wicks and am amazed by their quality. Their customer service is top notch as well.
Thank you!
Oh yeah, they returned all of my emails pretty quickly.

You’re welcome!

Thanks!
Very good detailed video…straight to the point, no yodda yodda.
Thank you!
Amazing video- also great on Indochino. Really appreciate the honest approach.

You can turn the bag inside out like a pillow cover and roll it over the suit.
My next purchase will be from Oliver Wicks. I've spent thousands on Hockerty and am ready to make the change. Oliver Wicks, give this man some credit/a suit.
I have two now.
My navy chalkstripe suit and my wedding tux for this September. I love both of them.
@@TheDadBod congratulations on the wedding! I've been to too many weddings where the groom is wearing an ill fitting suit! You're going to look excellent!
Thanks man! I can’t wait
Great videos. Great jokes. Great unbiased opinions.

Great video! I’d be interested seeing one of itailer since they are more in the affordable side of the online made to measure stores
Eventually. They’re in my list.
Fantastic Dad Jokes! Great review...
Glad you enjoyed it
Keep the dad jokes coming!
👍🏻
Just sold a suit for me. Looks absolutely awesome 👌 👏 👍
It’s still my favorite. Still saving for my 3rd.
@@TheDadBod Looking forward to my first. Great review, and in your Indochino as well.
Thank you

You’re welcome
It's a nice suit. For your body type, I would try building up the chest a bit and look at some lapel waistcoats.
Thank you.
Great review and personality
Thank you.
It looks great!

Agreed. My OW suits have same shoulders. Same issue. I wonder if the arm hole is too low as well? Sleeve is bunching up a lot during arm movement
Suit looks amazing!!!
Thank you. Going to get a tux from them at some point soon. Gonna need it this fall.
Great video keep it going !!
Thank you, will do!
Great video
Suit looks sharp. !
Thank you!
Recently ordered my second Oliver wicks (tuxedo) suit. Gonna do a review of it in a few weeks.
Love your videos!

Getting a tux soon from them to review and to wear at my wedding this fall.
Congratulations! I'm going with Oliver Wicks!
That looks light years better than the indochino suit you reviewed. Especially the shoulders.
Did the vest need alterations ?
It did not.
I came for the honest review.....I stayed for the dad jokes.
I hope you enjoy the others
So many Dad Jokes 😂😂😂
I’ve got a million of them.
(Probably not literally, but maybe)
@@TheDadBod Came for the review, stayed for the jokes XD
Thanks for watching.
The jokes are what makes it fun.
Well, that and getting new outfits.

I hate not seeing the changes at the same time i do. I would like to see my options in the suit and not in an image
Any plans to try Suitsupply’s custom made offerings?
Yes. Not sure when yet

Oliver wicks doesn’t offer those?
The suit looks great on you.
Thanks!
this or black lapel?
I love oliver wicks. Not sure about black lapel yet. Should be ordering one later this year.
Do you think Oliver wicks is a good value rather than going to a made to measure tailor

The arm holes look too low/big.
Might just be the angle. They’re just right.
What would Oliver Sacks say to all of this may he RIP.
