Style Debate: 15% off suiting at Indochino. Worth it?

Indochino Chinese New Year Suit Sale:  15% off with code DRAGON

Indochino continues to be a divisive brand.  Just look at the comments here.  Some were disappointed with their Indochino order.  Some flat out hated it.  But others in that same comments section were thrilled with their Indochino suit.  Seems once a week someone sends a tweet to @dappered saying how happy they are with their Indochino.

Here’s the thought process some of us have when it comes to this sale and their Essential Navy two-piece:

Essential Navy w/ notch lapel & functioning sleeve buttons.  $75 credit paid for extra tailoring at sides & pant waist.

Pre code price: $379  That’s kinda spendy when you consider a Hilfiger trim fit costs $240 on sale.
With the 15% off DRAGON code: $322.15  Better… but maybe I can live with the stronger shoulders on the Hilfiger.
Consider the $75 in re-tailoring charges Indochino covers:  Hm.  The Hilfiger will need tailoring.

Or in another way:

Indochino suit w/ more natural shoulders, customization for lapels, ticket pocket, waist tabs, etc. – $322.15
Hilfiger suit w/ stronger shoulders, no customizations available, and you pay for tailoring – $270 – $315

There’s one side.  Know that you’re on the hook for return shipping charges to Indochino, and it can get spendy if you’re in the U.S. since it’s headed to Canada.  Leave your take in the comments.  Thanks to Adam Z. for the style tipClick here for another torso shot of the navy suit.  Head here for a full review of one of their essential suits.
