I would recommend trying the suits in different body positions before you buy them. Most people talk about how a suit should fit when you stand upright. BUT, most of the day you'll be sitting or walking and doing some other stuff.

I’ve made 1000’s of suits. The things most humans ask for is a “normal” fit. These are characteristics for a “normal” suit look. Of course, style is a preference that can refined as you obtain more and more suits. As you wear them to work, weddings, funerals, and nights out. A suit is like a car, and no two cars you own have to be exactly the same. Some cars are fast with a drop top, and others are for commuting with the family. Break the rules if you prefer a longer sleeve length because you like to drive with your jacket on or if you prefer a shorter length to showcase your watches/ jewelry. The spirit of your suit lives in your preferences, not the old rules that have governed suiting for centuries

When coming to the jacket length i have a different take. On an average person yes you can use your hands but some people have longer arms and some have shorter arms, a tailor told me that to go over that you rather use a 50/50 measurements (you should measure from the base of your neck to the helm of your pants, then divide into 2 that will be the right length of the jacket)

Awesome info. I found info about getting the measurements but this is what I needed about how it should look in the end. I am tall with broad shoulders and a thin torso and I never liked the "look" of my measured size. Going a size smaller in the chest gets me closer to the look described here and gets me away from the 80's oversized shoulder look, haha.

The jacket length - I think it's better if you follow the 1:1 Ratio. If you're shorter, then choose or commission a shorter jacket.
