The SUITBAE Size Guide: How We Fit Up To a 58-Inch Chest Perfectly

Finding a suit that fits properly shouldn’t be difficult — but for many men across the UK, it is. Most high street stores stop at a 50–52 inch chest, leaving anyone above that size with limited, outdated, or uncomfortable options.

At SUITBAE, we changed that.

Every style you see in-store — every mannequin, every collection piece — is available in sizes all the way up to a 58-inch chest and 52-inch waist. That makes us one of the most size-inclusive suit stores in the UK.

This guide explains exactly how we achieve a perfect fit for every body shape, how our fittings work, and why our sizing range sets us apart from the rest.


Why Most Suit Shops Struggle With Larger Sizes

The reason most menswear stores stop at smaller sizes comes down to:

  • Limited production runs
  • Cheaper block patterns
  • Lack of stretch fabrics
  • Oversimplified “big & tall” cuts

This often leads to suits that are wide but not structured, long but not tailored, or loose but not comfortable.

SUITBAE rejects that approach completely.

Our suits are designed from the ground up with structured shoulder work, stretch weaves, shaped waistcoats, and adjustable waistbands to create a clean, modern fit — at every size.


Our Size Range: 34–58 Inch Chest

Here’s what makes our range different:

✔ Every size gets the same quality
No downgraded cuts. No cheaper fabrics for larger sizes. No “big man” versions that look different.
Every size follows the same silhouette, the same structure, the same fabrics.

✔ We stock full size runs in-store
You can try your suit on the same day — no special ordering or guessing.

✔ Anything on a mannequin, we have in your size
If it’s displayed, it exists in your size. If it's in stock for one size, it's in stock for all sizes.

This is a huge advantage for weddings and groomsmen, where consistency is everything.


How We Get the Perfect Fit for Larger Sizes

1. Proper Shoulder Work

Most bigger suits are too loose in the shoulders — we avoid that entirely. Our structured blazer blocks keep the shoulder line sharp without restricting movement.

2. Stretch-Weave Fabric

All our key suits use woven stretch, allowing the suit to mould to your shape while keeping its structure.

3. Adjustable Waistbands

Our trousers feature stretch waistbands that flex by up to 3 inches, offering comfort without compromising the clean line of the leg.

4. Shaped Waistcoats

Our waistcoats are cut to flatter — even in larger sizes — keeping the front clean and the back supported for a structured, confident look.

5. In-Store Fittings

Our fitters size you properly, from chest and shoulder to trouser rise and sleeve length. We don’t hand you a suit and hope it fits — we fit you properly.


Why Our Sizing Is Ideal for Wedding Parties

For wedding parties, consistency is everything.

Whether your groomsmen are:

  • 34 Inch Chest
  • 44 Inch Chest
  • 58 Inch Chest

They can all wear the same style and still look sharp, structured, and coordinated.

This is something most stores simply can’t offer — and a major reason so many wedding parties choose SUITBAE.


Our Most Popular Large-Size Friendly Styles

Some of our best-selling styles in larger sizes include:

Every one of these suits maintains the same silhouette, no matter the size.

How a SUITBAE Fitting Works

Our fittings are the same for every customer, every size:

  • Shirt fitting – sets the shoulder and sleeve shape.
  • Trousers fitting – establishes stance and leg line.
  • Brogues – determine the correct fall of the trouser.
  • Waistcoat – shapes the torso and neatens the midsection.
  • Jacket – final structure and silhouette.
  • Tie set – completes the look and ties it into your colour theme.

Everything is precise, consistent, and tailored to your proportions — not just your size label.


Why Customers Say SUITBAE Fits Better

Because we design our suits with:

  • Better structure
  • Better fabric
  • Better size runs
  • Better fittings
  • Better attention to detail

We don’t rely on baggy cuts or oversized proportions. We rely on craftsmanship.

Whether you're a 34-inch chest or a 58-inch chest:

  • Your jacket sits clean
  • Your waistcoat lies flat
  • Your trousers fall properly
  • The full outfit feels comfortable all day

That’s the SUITBAE fit.
