Product
Naked Suits by AlbertMing or simply Naked Suits are the company's first line of product. They are water-resistant and could be ordered either off-the rack or made-to-measure. The product name is intended to convey the expectation that the suits are so comfortable, the wearer would not even realize that they are wearing a suit.[4] Shyy and Chang wanted to "reclaim" men's suit by making it more durable and "less miserable" using modern technology.[2]
