I found MdT through an ad on facebook. I had been looking to replace work suits through a…read more"made-to-measure" company because I'm short and barrel chested and very few off the rack suits are an option for a proper fit, but I do not have the budget right now for true custom suiting. I chose MdT over some of the more established options because they showed up in DC temporarily at the right place and time, and they seemed a little more conservative in styling than SuitSupply. I ended up buying two suits from MdT during a pop-up event they did in DC. I'm pleased with the finish, styling, and price point, I ended up spending about $1400 for 2 half-canvas suits.
The overall experience was pleasant, including selection of fabric, options, and measurements. The "style valet" talked through what I was buying the suits for and what my work and office environments are like, and my general wardrobe and style.
After about an hour session (including measurements taken), I had to wait about 3 weeks for my first suit. I had to have the first set of pants tailored, but after communicating the issues back to the "style valet", the second suit addressed those issues and was good to go straight out of the box.
Given the inherent challenges of building a suit off a single measurement, I'd recommend that MdT is best if you're in New York and can go in for a second measurement once your first item is ready for you. But I made it work from another city. My assigned "valet" was pretty responsive and helpful by email.
In sum, I recommend MdT, though if you're in NYC you've got a lot more options. This is a very competitive niche but I'm happy with the quality, service, and value I got from Martin de Tours.
