Men's suits - where to buy?

Where do men get suits from?

DH only wears suits for work occasionally, and for the odd wedding now and then, he hasn't had a new one for years but has decided he needs to replace the ones he has got. His last ones were from Suits You, but it has closed down now. He is short but very broad shouldered and usually needs the trousers and sleeves shortening. Any suggestions please?

Paul Smith suits are beautifully made.

Also Jaeger.

Depends what he wants. Debenhams have a good selection; Reiss if he fancies something a bit sharper. Could also consider getting one made: Most towns still have a tailor, or maybe Raja fashions - get measured in the UK but the suit is made in hong kong. Quite a bit cheaper then uk tailoring, but make sure you know what you want before you go and stick to it as the sales staff can be quite pushy

Thank you both, we hadn't really thought about getting one made, I suppose I had thought you would have to actually go to Hong Kong or be in London.

I think he would be looking for something fairly conventional (he works in science so doesn't need cutting edge fashion, no offence to scientists). We've got a child free, work-free afternoon later in the week, might take a trip to the nearest big town (I have googled and found a branch of Reiss there, also there is a Debenhams) and see what we can find.
