My new Quantum Suits from Baron Boutique

drum007 · June 2010

I just received my 2 identical Quantum suits from Baron and couldn't be happier. They fit like a glove! I'm a somewhat muscular guy so I went with "comfortable" instead of "snug". Glad I did because I still achieve the DC look and fit. One is charcoal grey and the other is midnight blue (almost black). I'm thrilled about the working cuffs as well! I will definitely be placing future orders with Baron. Maybe the PTS suit next and then a new tux.

They look nice, I especially like the charcoal I can just imagine the visual texture of it. It's getting harder and harder to resist ordering one.

I think the key is to make sure you get accurate measurements from a tailor too. I made the decision after seeing more expensive suits that were cheaper in quality. I also wanted the working surgeon's cuffs. You won't be disappointed!

Cool - I ordered one in charcoal - it's due in the next week and I'm pretty excited too.
Will you post up a pic of you wearing it? And will you unbutton the bottom cuff button?

Sharp looking suits! You should post some pictures of you wearing them!

I'm seriously considering ordering one of these next month. If you decide to skip the shirt & tie, it only comes to $300 for just the suit itself, correct?

Yes I ordered it without the shirt and tie (to get the tie from Magnoli) and Baron charged $299 which is very good value I feel. I got the CR three-piece and I love it...

Ignore the drums in the background....

There are 4 buttons on the sleeves but DC wore 5. Not a big deal to me. I'm sure Baron could do it with 5 if you specify. The shirt is by Brooks Brothers and is part of their non-iron slim fit line.

Those sleeves don't look like they fit too well. They are too baggy and seem to tighten in an odd way towards your hands. You say you have a somewhat muscular physique, but judging by those pictures I guess we will disagree on what the term "muscular" means.

Trust me, they fit fine. They got bunched up when I was trying to take the picture.

5/10.Hope it looks better in real then on the picture 8-)

I agree that the pics don't look great but I'm really happy with the product.

Well my friend, the fabric is the good color and it looks like the one on my Costume Card. There should be 5 buttons on your sleeve I believe, to me that's a major mistake, but for your defense the buttons are working. I'm not sure if there was a «shiny» lining at the top of the pockets. You should have your sleeves arranged.

As for the rest, we can't see how your shoulder fit. But for the price, it's very good. If the shoulders fit right and you have the sleeves arranged, you're going to look just fine.

drum007 · July 2010

Toutbrun, you're dead on right with your comments. I'm happy with the fit and I don't regret the purchase. Everything about the suit is fine and the way I want it. I'm sorry that I'm not a professional model and that I couldn't show off the suits better. Honestly, I am very happy with the fit and I plan to wear these suits for years to come.

That’s the most impotent thing – you are happy and stratified… congratulation on a nice suit(s)…

007 · July 2010

I agree with ICS.

The most important person is you and how you feel in your suit - good on you for posting up the pictures - I think i'm going to get some pics up soon of me in my end scene CR three-piece - waiting for the tie to arrive from Magnoli at the moment.

I ordered my charcoal QoS suit a few weeks ago - it's due here 14 July. Thanks to your post, I was able to alter my order slightly to include the five button cuffs aswell so I'm very, very grateful for your images drum007.

There is a difference between good, critical feedback, and outright mockery...and I am sorry that you felt mocked. I would encourage you to continue to post pictures and your opinion on these suits. You are reaching for the James Bond style, and 90% of that is within you, and not about the clothing you wear...so I would say you are there. Don't let others tear that down.

I agree with The Mantis on this....critical feedback is okay...but please try and stay clear of the 'nasty' or 'rude' feedback....

I hope you decide to post more pics....and certainly give the rest of us your opinions about the item(s) you have bought...that way the rest of us will be able to decide if we should buy too....thanks for the pics so far -{

toutbrun · July 2010

Again, thanks for sharing pictures. Lots of people don't share private pictures - including me - but I can only appreciate the courage of those who do. I hope you won't let this stop you. And about the 007 attitude described by The Mantis, he's right - it's not about the one button that's missing

drum007 · July 2010

Thanks for the nice and encouraging comments, guys.

-{ I agree about the missing 5th button on the suit. If you choose to order a suit from Baron, make sure you mention that. Not a huge deal to me but it may be to some. Other than that, I'm happy with the quality. I'll try and get some better pics where my arms are straighter and I'll try and get the shoulders in the pic as well.

It's most important that your happy and have a nice suit. A fifth button on a cuff isn't going to turn anyone in this forum into Daniel Craig.

I am especially impressed with the color and texture in the close up pictures. Would love to see more.

I agree none of us are going to become Bond if we wear a replica suit but isn't it better to get the suits more accurate where possible?
