The modern fit suit's blazer is tapered and has a slender overall appearance with sleeves cut slim, tapering at each cuff. To help create a upright poster for its wearer, the modern blazer's arm holes are cut high. This is complemented by a shoulder line which is softer than that found on our classic fit suit.

How do I find out my jacket size? Measure your chest and hip width in either inch or centimeters. If you chest width in inch is between 34 and 36 inches, and your hip width between 39 and 40 centimeters, your perfect size is “L” (US) or a 40 (European Size).
Should you buy a coat a size up or down if you are between sizes? Definately, buy the coat slightly larger. Not only will it keep you warmer because of the air pockets on the inside, but it will also allow you to wear layers when the weather gets really cold.
To correctly determining your suit size, you need to measure your (1) height, (2) chest circumference, (3) hip circumference, and (4) waistband. You also need to know your (5) step length (along the leg, from crotch to the ground) and (6) your side length (from the waist over the hip to the sole).
A sport coat is a patterned jacket that coordinates with trousers that are not made of the same fabric or have the same pattern. A blazer is a solid color jacket with contrasting (often metal) buttons. And a suit coat has a pair of pants made from the same fabric/pattern as the coat.

You can choose to go with a slightly dressier look, or a more casual one, but your general goal is to dress the jacket down, rather than to dress your jeans up. There's only so much dressing up of the look you can do before the elements of one's outfit become discordant.
Suit and sport coat sizes have one number and one letter (for example, 38S, 40R, 42L). The number is your chest measurement and the letter refers to the jacket's length ' short, regular or long.
Any major chain or dept store that sells suits, from Mens Warehouse to Dillards, will measure you for free. I've never heard of a place charging for measurements. After measuring you'll want to promptly tell them you're looking for a suit for a wedding as well as what kind of suit you're looking for.
Wrap the tape measure around your torso. Go underneath your arms, across your shoulder blades, and over the largest part of your chest. The chest measurement is usually the size of the coat. For a more relaxed fit, add 1 inch to the total measurement.
The hem of the jacket should hit right around the middle of your hand — at or just past where the fingers meet the palm. If the hem of the jacket is sitting on top of the butt, with a small little flare in the back, it's too short. If it falls past the bottom entirely, longer than the arms, it's too long.
If you're used to buying tailored clothing from US retailers, you'll know that your suit jacket size should roughly translate to your chest circumference as measured in inches. For a slimmer fit, choose a jacket size ~1″ smaller than your (body measurement) chest circumference.

While using a tape measure is typically the easiest way to measure yourself, it is not the only way to take your measurements. If you don't have a tape measure, you can measure yourself using a piece of string and a ruler, yardstick, dollar bill or even your own hand.

Chest measurement
- To find out your chest width, take a measuring tape and wrap in under your armpits, at the fullest part of the chest. Do not puff out your chest. Stand up straight and relax.
- The procedure is the same for women. Remember to take the measurement on the widest part of your breasts.
They are the exact same fit on the body and torso length, but the arms are one inch longer. We suggest you choose the same size as you have chosen for the sports blazers.
