Wholesale Men's Suits: A Buying Guide to Sizes, Colors and Fits

Tailor fitting a man's navy suit jacket

Suits are one of the highest-ticket categories in a men's boutique, and one of the easiest to get wrong. Buy the wrong sizes and you sit on inventory. Buy too few colors and customers walk. This guide covers how to buy wholesale men's suits with confidence.

Understand the Drop

The drop is the difference between the jacket chest size and the pant waist. BAROCCO suits use a 6-inch drop: a 38 jacket comes with a 32 waist, a 40 with a 34, and so on up the line. Knowing the drop helps you predict which customers a size will fit without alterations.

Short, Regular and Long

Jacket length matters as much as chest size. BAROCCO suits come in Short, Regular and Long. Regular carries most of the volume, but Short and Long sizes keep shorter and taller customers from leaving empty-handed.

Spare Pants Save Sales

Not every customer is a perfect drop. We keep separate suit pants in stock in all colors, so you can sell a jacket with a different pant size or replace a pant after alterations, without breaking a set.

Build a Color Mix

A good suit wall has a foundation and a spotlight. The foundation is black, navy and gray. The spotlight is color for prom, weddings, quinceañeras and nightlife. The SU600 Essence Signature Suit covers both in 12 colors, including navy, burgundy, coffee, emerald and royal.

Why Four-Way Stretch Suiting Sells

The SU600 is four-way stretch, so it moves when customers sit, dance and drive. Comfort is the reason customers come back for a second color. The jacket and pants are sold together as one unit.

Statement Suits for the Spotlight

For customers who want to be noticed, two-piece statement suits pair an embellished blazer with matching pants. Browse them in our suits collection and formal wear.

Complete the Look

Every suit sale is a chance to add a shirt, a belt and a tie. Stretch dress shirts like the B311 and B400, plus accessories, raise the average ticket with almost no extra effort.
