POWERFUL BLUE JACKETS COMMAND WARDROBE ATTENTION
Header
Alongside the rich earth-tone colors of browns and olives in sport jackets, the blue jacket remains a perennial favorite.  There is a measurable comfort, perhaps even a sense of security in the selection of a rich blue jacket.  We've heard it said that in our heart of hearts, it's the navy jacket that we turn to first.
 
From the Navy blazer we get an authoritative, powerful feeling.  It reminds us of the commander at sea or the policeman's uniform.  The classic blazer, in single or double-breasted styling, has never waned in popularity.  It is often a first choice for travelers as it easily coordinates with nearly any trouser color from the darkest grays to the lightest of tans. 
 
Beyond the navy blazer awaits another blue jacket destined to be a wardrobe favorite.  Consider the selection of a rich, elegant blue jacket in a subtle Glenn plaid, a delicate decoration of soft windowpane plaid, or a classic check pattern in a range of visible texture from traditional hound's-tooth to tiny tick-weave.
 
These blue jackets are made in the finest wools, often woven with silk for a luxurious hand and tone.  While easily paired with navy or medium blue trousers, these primary blue jackets are perfect with a range of gray trousers from deep, dark charcoal to silver gray.
Q & A - ASK SANDY
Sandy Taboh color Question: 
I can wear rack size clothes in the stores with minor alterations.  Do I need custom clothes?

Answer: 
Thinking you're a perfect off-the-rack size is a common misconception.  Often people don't realize how poorly an off-the-rack suit fits until you actually have one made to your individual measurements and posture.  Then the difference is evident. 
 
Quality and selection are additional benefits of custom clothing. The hand work, canvas construction, and detail that is part of the custom suit far surpasses the make of a factory ready to wear garment. This gives you more comfort and a more aesthetically pleasing silhouette.
 
The custom client has incredible selection in fabric and the option to design your suit as you desire. For example whether you prefer a jacket with British side vents, Italian no vents, or a traditional center vent, you get the design you want. Not what happens to be available in the store. 
 
For all these reasons and many more there is great benefit from the custom garment even for a gentleman who is "easy to fit".
