THE SUIT:
Go beyond the basic black suit with Paul Betenly. Solid color suits are the workhorses of the clothing world for their versatility - they can be dressed up or down and are easy to match with shirts and ties. There is, however, a difference among solid suits and that's the difference in class and elegance. Cheap suits look like they're wearing you. Classy suits, like this Paul Betenly, enhance your good looks and help you look confident, competent, and elegant.
6” drop is the difference between chest and waist size – a size 42 jacket comes with size 36 slacks. (42 – 6 = 36) Sizes 46 and above come with a 5” drop. (46 – 5 = 41)

THE MAKER:
Paul Betenly - probably the best made garments you've never heard of. The Paul Betenly approach to making suits and sport coats is complete vertical integration. The wool comes from Betenly owned farms in New Zealand. The yarn is spun and woven on Betenly looms and the suits cut and manufactured in his own factory. It's a shame that in today's world a designer without a multi-million dollar ad campaign can't stand out. Instead of advertising campaigns Paul Betenly put his millions into his garments and factory and lets the quality speak for itself.
