Game Day Suits: Edmonton’s Easiest and Most Affordable Custom Suit Experience

Let me guess, you got here by searching  “where to buy a suit in Edmonton” or “custom suits Edmonton,” or something like that?  Well you're in the right place.  If you want quality, affordability and speed, Game Day Suits (GDS) is designed to deliver all three. Edmonton is home to many talented bespoke and made‑to‑measure tailors who offer a huge range of fabrics and design options, nevermind all the off-the-rack options we have. This makes sense, Alberta has the perfect suit climate.  We Albertans need garments that keep us warm while looking sharp and professional.  We celebrate this vibrant menswear scene while making the process more accessible for everyone with transparent pricing, friendly service, and a mobile fitting model.

Edmonton’s thriving custom‑suit scene

Custom suits are popular because they offer far more personalisation than off‑the‑rack clothing. Standard made‑to‑measure programs usually provide a few hundred fabrics and limited style options, while bespoke tailors can offer 3 000–5 000 fabric choices with virtually endless customization possibilities on lapels, buttons, linings and internal construction. Game Day Suits falls into the latter category, with an expansive spectrum of style, fabric, and detail options, all made from a new pattern crafted just for our clients.  There’s a perfect suit for every taste and body shape, even if it hasn't been made yet.

Unfortunately, many makers don’t post their prices upfront and can sometimes require multiple in‑person appointments, which can be intimidating, expensive, and time consuming for newcomers to custom suiting.

GDS takes a different approach. We list all of our pricing on our website and come to you for measurements with fabric samples and style guides, rather than asking you to visit a storefront. This removes the guesswork—you know exactly what your suit will cost—and lets us pass the savings from not maintaining a physical shop directly to you.

Fit guarantee and local tailoring rebate

Because every GDS pattern is drafted for your measurements, about 75 % of our clients’ suits fit perfectly right out of the box. Bodies are unique, though, and even careful measurements can be imperfect, so roughly 25 % of garments need minor tweaks. If your suit requires alterations (generally minor), we encourage you to support your local tailors (we can recommend one).  Provide us with a receipt and have the tailor complete our alteration form, and we’ll rebate up to $100 on your first suit. This way you still get an unbeatable total price while keeping the fine-tuning craftsmanship totally local, whether you're in Edmonton, Whitecourt, Calgary, or the Hat.

One‑of‑a‑kind suits with endless combinations

Unlike standard made‑to‑measure programs, GDS has bespoke access to international textile markets through our partners in Thailand and the Philippines, all while being incorporated in Alberta.  This gives our clients great savings on clothes made by skilled artisans, and even lets us supply garments beyond businesswear.  If you need custom swag, company uniforms, basically anything at all, we design, supply, and/or produce a wide variety of custom garments.  If you need custom clothes, especially in bulk, get in touch because even if we can't hit your target price ourselves, we can probably point you towards someone who can.  We're here to get you the right clothes for your needs, first and foremost, saving you time searching, sourcing, and shopping.  Just come to Game Day Suits first! 

In Canada we carry a vast range of wools, linens, silks and blended fabric samples for you to choose from—from classic pinstripes to bold plaids. We combine fabric, cut, lapel shape, pockets, lining, buttons and monogramming to create one‑of‑a‑kind garments. Bespoke suiting gives you virtually limitless possibilities for fabric, styling and details because every aspect of the garment is crafted from scratch. Our conservative estimate is that we could produce over one million unique suit combinations before making the same style twice. Your pattern is cut individually by artisans—not mass‑produced in a factory—so you’re guaranteed a unique piece that fits your unique needs and expresses your unique personality.

Transparent pricing and chill service

Many bespoke shops keep their prices hidden until after your consultation, which can feel daunting. We’re different: our prices are posted clearly. We operate as a mobile tailor, meeting clients at their homes, offices or rinks rather than in a high‑pressure showroom. This keeps costs low and creates a relaxed environment. We pride ourselves on having chill and helpful hockey‑bro vibes—we’re friendly, down‑to‑earth and love talking sports as much as fabrics. Because we don’t have a storefront, we can offer high‑end custom garments at a price point that works for students, recent grads and professionals just starting to build their wardrobes.

Fast turnaround and event readiness

Our suits are designed, cut, and sewn to order on a bespoke basis. Without the overhead of a local workshop, turnaround can be as short as two weeks. We’re a great fit for wedding parties, graduation suits, prom tuxedos and corporate events. We can coordinate colours and fabrics for groups while tailoring each suit to the wearer. Athletic builds are no problem—our suitmakers can accommodate broad shoulders and slim waists without extra cost.

Most importantly for many of our clients, we always offer some sort of discount for active hockey players, regardless of level (I'm looking at you, beer leaguers), simply because hockey players are literally and figuratively the coolest people on Earth.

Beyond suits – custom clothing for every occasion

While suits are our speciality, GDS can make nearly any garment through our partnership with Damalerio Studio. Need a custom shirt, vest, chinos or a casual jacket? Need wedding suits?  Need a grad suit?  We have you covered. You have the freedom to choose everything from the material to the buttons.
