A good tailor should be able to fix this though. I recommend to visit a tailor in your neighbourhood and ask him!

Tips were awesome and really helped me out a lot! I actually went to go buy suit off the rack at Macy’s recently. Tried a bunch on and was pretty happy with the fit of their Bar III brand. For the pants, I tried on a 33X30, but found that the length was a little bit too much, and only need it hemmed a bit. I found out later though that if I had bought it online and shipped it to my house that it’d be $55 cheaper. Only thing is, the only pant size they have online close to 33×30 is 33×32. Is that too much to hem?

Can that be fixed? Following up by adding an email notification.

The first solution that comes to my mind is to try the pants from the same line of suits but bigger size. Of course, if they have the same suit in different sizes in that particular store. Give me a day or two to talk to some tailors and I will see if we can come up with some solution.
Why are you so against altering the bigger jacket to fit the pants?

I wear a 38R suit jacket and it fits perfectly. Unfortunately, the pants that come with the jacket are usually 31.5 or 32 at the most at the waist. My waist is 34-35. I have spoken with a couple of tailors who told me the most they could take out the waist was 1-2 inches. I’m afraid that the waist will still be too tight despite. Not sure what to do. I really don’t want to purchase a larger jacket and then have the shoulders taken in just to get pants that fit better. Any advice would be great. Thanks
