Incredible Deal! I bought 2 full suits and absolutely love them!
Size: Medium, Color: Grey
Great looking suit! True to the American Size Chart! I got a lot of compliments the very first day of wearing it! I feel lucky, the Medium Fits like it was tailored! 5’11 (6’ with shoes on, ladies) 190lb. Stocky build. The stretchy waist band is a game changer fellas! Love that! Just like in the video they’re very fun to dance in! The Medium is a lil snug in areas for me but I am currently dieting etc, so if you don’t wanna worry I’m sure the next size up for you fits just as good and will have more breathing room for your arm muscles, thighs, mid section etc as the entire material itself is not stretchy, just the waistband which is incredible!. Overall these are a GREAT score at an amazing price! Perfect for that special occasion or for upgraded business attire! Great Quality! Great Value! and You’ll feel great about yourself in these when you find your faves!

Packaged in aWrinkled Ball and Bad Sizing
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
I've tried 3 of these suits, 2 different sizes, and each one fits differently. Each one has also been crinkled up and wrinkled each time I opened it. I wouldn't be surprised if it was returned and sent right back out without inspection.
Other reviews noted order a size up. I have a size 34 waist and normally order Large, so I ordered an XL. XL barely can be zippered up. So I returned it. Ordered and XXL. XXL is about 6 inches way too big and took 2 weeks to arrive. So I order and XL again, and once again, way too small, but still bigger than the first..
There is no tag on the pants, only the jacket, so I think someone screwed up the sizing or matching the jacket with the pants.
Total waste of time with 3 returns. Label your products right and get your sizing chart right. There should not be an 8 inch difference between XL and XXL. Got another trip out to UPS, thanks...

Hubby looks good in it!
Size: Large, Color: Black, Size: Large, Color: Black
This suit is very nice! But it doesn’t have the pockets we were expecting. The left chest pocket is sewn shut along with the outside pockets. It doesn’t have 1 or 2 pockets inside the jacket. Hubby looks good in it!

Great quality, we could've sized up.
Size: X-Large, Color: Black, Size: X-Large, Color: Black
This suit was absolutely stunning! My son looked amazing in it for homecoming. With him being 6'4", the length was perfect, but it was a but too snug in his thighs, as he is a muscular athlete, and he was a bit worried sitting down in it!😂 Nonetheless, it held up well for my huge Samoan baby, and he got many compliments on it. We also found a bow tie to match it perfectly with the same pattern.

Jackets made too small and too tight
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
My son is 6'2" & 185 lbs and normally wears a 36 in pants. Site recommends a large, but I ordered an xxl based off the reviews. It was way too big in pants and jacket! I then ordered the large and the xl to be on the safe side because prom was fastly approaching. The large was too small! The xl was okay, but not perfect. Somehow it seems they need a suit size in between the xl and xxl, leading me to think they were just sewn wrong. The pants were extra long (good thing for us), they had to be hemmed. He did need a belt, but not by much. He was able to bend and sit with the pants on. The jacket however still runs small in my opinion. It is too tight in the arms, making it difficult to move. It is also on the short side in sleeves and length. It definitely shows when raising your arms. We chose this suit because we THOUGHT it was the pattern of his date's prom dress; turns out it wasn't. But it matched the vest we bought perfectly.
This suit is made of a thin silky material and it runs small. And the pockets ARE useable. You just need to find the starter hole and remove the thread (if closed). I would recommend buying a different suit unless you order it bigger and have the time and money to alter it.
Oh, and it will take a while to get a refund. Suits ship to you fast, but goes back slow. You gotta wait til the company receive the item, then still wait for the refund.
