This is a list assembled by styleforum.net, which is probably the website with the most competent people you were able to find on the internet (regarding suits and general suit tairloring, its also where WAYWT thread originated from (/fa/s for example is just a copy of that idea)). Its still mostly accurate but a few things changed. Especially high fashion labels transitioned more towards half canvassing. I know for a fact that Paul Smith (mainline) and YSL only partially sell fully canvassed blazer/suits nowadays. However, their quality is still superior to most and should stay in the same bracket.

If you dont give a shit about the quality of the tailoring then just buy Zara/Asos.

You mean the one in the OP? It might not be, I'm not great when it comes to clothing brands/quality. I do like how both look though.
