Cut up your suits

You can tell a lot about a suit by handling it yourself, but you can tell a lot more by cutting it open. Fortunately, there are some fantastic suit dissections online so that you don’t have to.

If you’ve been reading menswear blogs for some time you’ll have seen many of these before, but I thought it was worth collecting them all in one place.

Many of these link to Jeffrey Diduch’s excellent blog, but there are some helpful examples from elsewhere too. Some have photos that no longer display; I’m trying to find if they are preserved anywhere else.
