2. Fabric Selection. Browse our extensive swatch library from the world’s top mills. Peter will guide you toward fabrics that suit the season, your skin tone, and the purpose of the suit.
3. Measurements. Peter takes a full set of precise measurements to create a pattern built entirely around your body accommodating any asymmetries or fit preferences most off-the-rack suits simply can’t address.
4. Style Choices. Lapel style, button configuration, lining, vents, ticket pockets, monograms every detail is yours to choose. Peter provides guidance at every step.
5. Fitting Appointments. As your suit is constructed, you’ll come in for fittings to refine the fit until it’s exactly right. The full process typically takes 6–8 weeks.
6. Final Delivery. Your completed suit is pressed, finished, and ready to wear. The fit, the fabric, the details all yours.

Frequently Asked Questions About Men’s Custom Suits in San Francisco

What is the difference between a bespoke suit and a made-to-measure suit?

A bespoke suit is built entirely from scratch using a unique pattern drafted specifically for your body. A made-to-measure suit starts from a pre-existing base pattern that is then adjusted to your measurements. Bespoke offers the highest level of customization, fit, and craftsmanship available in menswear.

How long does it take to get a custom suit made?

The typical turnaround for a Peter Panos custom suit is 6–8 weeks from your initial consultation to final delivery. This timeline includes fabric sourcing, pattern drafting, construction, and multiple fitting appointments. If you have a specific event or deadline, we recommend contacting us as early as possible.

How many fittings will I need?

Most clients come in for two to three fittings during the construction process. Each appointment allows Peter to make precise adjustments so that the final garment fits exactly as it should. The number of fittings may vary depending on the complexity of the commission and individual fit requirements.

What fabric should I choose for my custom suit?

The right fabric depends on how and when you plan to wear the suit. For year-round business wear, a mid-weight wool from mills like Vitale Barberis Canonico or Holland & Sherry is an excellent choice. For summer events, a lighter fresco or linen blend works well. For formal occasions, a finer Super 120s or Super 150s wool delivers an exceptional drape and sheen. Peter will guide you through the selection based on your lifestyle and preferences.

Do you make custom suits for weddings?

Absolutely. Wedding commissions are one of our specialties. We create custom wedding suits and custom tuxedos in San Francisco designed to complement your partner’s attire and reflect your personal style. Because the process takes 6–8 weeks, we recommend reaching out at least two to three months before your wedding date.

Can you alter a suit I already own?

Yes. In addition to custom commissions, Peter Panos offers professional jacket and blazer alterations, pants alterations, and wedding suit alterations. Whether it’s taking in a jacket, hemming trousers, or adjusting the shoulders, precise alterations can dramatically improve the way an existing suit fits and feels.

Do I need an appointment to visit Peter Panos?

Yes, we work by appointment to ensure every client receives Peter’s full, undivided attention. To schedule your consultation at our San Francisco studio, call us at 415-483-9698 or visit our contact page.

What makes Peter Panos different from other tailors in San Francisco?

Every client works directly with Peter not an assistant or junior tailor.

The result is a suit that reflects your individuality in a way that off-the-rack and even most made-to-measure options simply cannot achieve.
