Custom Jacket & Suit Tailoring
A Reposition custom jacket or suit is Africana minimalism at its most detailed: cut to your body, built from fabric you choose, and constructed with restraint rather than heavy ornamentation. It's our highest-craftsmanship service, and the one most clients associate with the brand first.
What this service is
Custom jacket and suit tailoring covers single jackets, full two-piece suits, and three-piece suits, all built from your individual measurements rather than a standard block size. That includes shoulder structure, sleeve pitch, jacket length, and trouser break, plus your choice of fabric, lining, lapel style, and button configuration. Construction complexity — canvassing, lining, hand-finished details — is what separates the lower and upper ends of the price range.
Who this is for
This service is built for:
- —Entrepreneurs and builders who need a suit that reads as deliberate and put-together in high-stakes meetings, not just "formalwear."
- —African professionals in the diaspora who want tailoring that reflects cultural identity through fabric and design choices, not a generic Savile Row template.
- —Special-occasion buyers — weddings, milestone events — who want a piece built to last well past the event itself, backed by a 3-year guarantee.
- —Repeat clients building a wardrobe of interchangeable jackets and trousers rather than one-off matched suits.
What it costs
Jackets and suits range from $600 to $3,000. A single jacket in a straightforward fabric and construction sits at the lower end; a full three-piece suit in premium fabric with hand-finished canvassing and lining detail sits toward the top. You'll get a confirmed price for your exact specification before any cutting begins — no open-ended estimates.
How long it takes
Suits and jackets involve more construction steps than shirts or pants, so timelines vary more by piece and current order volume. Use the Delivery Estimation tool on the Reposition site to get a specific timeline for your exact order before you commit, especially if you're ordering for a fixed-date event like a wedding.

Frequently Asked Questions — Jackets & Suits
Jackets and suits range from $600 to $3,000, depending on fabric, lining, and construction complexity. You get a fixed price before construction starts.
A single jacket covers just the top piece. A two-piece suit adds matching trousers, and a three-piece adds a waistcoat. Each is priced individually within the $600–$3,000 range based on fabric and construction.
Yes. Use the Delivery Estimation tool to check the timeline against your event date before ordering, since suits take longer to construct than shirts or pants.
If you're local to Abuja, Lagos, or London, a second fitting can be arranged before final delivery. Remote orders rely on the initial measurement guide instead.
Every jacket and suit carries a 3-year product guarantee covering craftsmanship and material defects, the same as our shirts and pants.
