Ya, bespoke involves a bit more than just measurements.
Sometimes you can buy an off the peg jacket and tinker with it. Maybe fit the waist a little better and things like that. I have a jacket now that I am thinking about converting, and it needs some kind of interfacing in the upper sleeves... lightweight fleece or something like that. I'm not too picky.
It's funny though, people can train themselves to spot things, like a not-perfectly-fitted jacket, then it drives them nuts because they will notice them everywhere. I try not to worry too much.

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
