    Do you pay attention to the ARMHOLE of your coat or shirt when purchasing?
    Let’s discuss ….

      100% agreed. If you have a jacket with high armholes, you also defeat the purpose if you don’t have shirts that have equally good armhole cuts.
      A big issue with RTW shirts that don’t have high enough armholes (and long enough shirts), is when your arms are raised outside of that limited range of motion - it tends to pull the shirt out of the trousers. You can’t skimp on great shirts.

      A lot of men overlook the fit of a shirt because it’s an undergarment. But a poor fit in your shirt can mar the entire outfit

      Hello Mr. Okey,
      When tailoring a jacket that needs to stretch forward (and has a high armhole), the jacket is pulling up more than I would like. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this.

      If the coat is “Lifting Up” when you raise your arms, then the armhole is just not deep enough. This is usually the central culprit

    the armholes annoy me so much even in attires apart from suits. t-shirts, I don't care for too much but longer sleeved shirts or god forbid, my karate uniform are usually much too low and move weirdly. It's worse with the uniform as i have a belt for the top however whenever i move my arms, the garment moves with me and bunches up strangely.

Not to mention smart/formal wear has a great way of making one step higher if you say because when you dress well you feel well too I just can’t imagine the amount of people’s lives he changed just from people unboxing there well tailored suits keep it up and keep changing the narrative One short at a time definitely a role model😊

    Yep, your arm should move without having to take the whole jacket with it. And it won't be too high cut because it's made for your own size.

    So I'm a newbie here so forgive me for asking this, but can you take ready to wear jackets and have the armholes tailored?

      @AskOkeyInc  Před 9 měsíci +1

      ABSOLUTELY NOT Majestic!
      Once the armhole is cut, it’s DONE! Nothing you can do about it.
      You can try to use a shoulder pad to lift the top of the armhole thereby making it more “snug” but that’s calls for extensive surgery

      Nugget, you should AT LEAST be able to stretch your arms FULL OUT in front of you without DISTURBING THE BALANCE of the coat or shirt
