Tuxedos
Starting to gather options for my wedding tux (next October) and I'd prefer to get something secondhand from a higher end spot than go for my traditional Suitsupply/Todd Snyder if I have the option. Any thoughts aside from the following options:
Brioni
Borelli
Tom Ford
Sartorio Formosa
Cesare Attolini
Kiton
RLPL

The SF suit rankings should suit your needs https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1y32yqkSU5_ZnVO7ub_B5Y6J9E_izu6qD6nwdzw7V1HU/edit?usp=sharing

thank you
have not looked at the SF tier list in years
I'm sure you can write a quick few lines of code to take all the 5s and 4s from the SF list and write "brand1%2C+brand2%2C+..." to copy paste into the URL also
yeah i'll just put something into excel
yeah that'll work. eBay limits search length when typed into the search bar but you can just edit the URL for longer searches if you want to put 100 brands or whatever
aside form that, usual secondhand suit rules apply
most important on the jacket is shoulder and length
most important on trousers is rise
(and the inseam can't be too short obviously but most tailored trousers can be let out ~2" on the inseam, good sellers will indicate how much extra hem you have to work with)
and Kent Wang is great for all the accessories if you don't have em yet
