Some of these are even reversible, business by day and pleasure by night:

seen them at TAF, they are pretty neat.
they cost that much because they are manufactured the same way as bespoke suits and also the material is expensive.
[it still is a lot of money though.]

~900 isn't going to get you bespoke (custom made start to finish) suiting of any quality. Off the rack deals at mid level suit manufacturers cost more than that. Incidentally, it's not a suit jacket if you don't get the matching pants, a suit is a garment consisting of a matched top and bottom. They're sports coats if they're just the jacket.

Where did those photos come from, I'm curious to see how they actually fit; you're not going to wander around holding the coat open, so that doesn't give any clues if they're presentable. Also I wouldn't call that reversible, that's just the inside of a jacket, taped seams and all.

Edit: Found the link. I actually like their crazy plaids, and their fits seem at least as good as some of the cheap-o internet made-to-measure companies that have popped up. I wonder if they'd allow the customer to provide their own fabric, I've been looking for a fun tweed coat for a while.
