Shopping for a Big Suit

Question:

I am a big man, I have a 62-64 coat and a 54 pant, my shoulders are 70 inches around, and I am only 5'8" tall. What type of suit would you recommend. I am interested in a 6-button but not sure.

Dear Sir,
Choosing the right suit for any size man takes some thought. I believe from your description that the best style for you would be a single breasted 2 button model. This model will be cooler as it has it covers less of your body and will make you look taller because of the longer V shape where the jacket opens in front. I would recommend dark fabrics that are plain or have a very subtle pattern or a fine stripe.
