Slight word of warning, you will be surprised how heavy a set of made to measure leathers, especially BKS, are over off the peg stuff. Ok you do get better protection but you do lose a bit in day to day comfort.

I've got a set of BKS, and have had Hideout before. I would say BKS are better, but quite frankly, if or when they wear out i really would very seriously look at Crowtree as i don't think BKS are worth the extra, even though i spent it myself.
