Bespoke just means custom made. A bespoke suit is a suit made specifically for you by a bespoke tailor. You would go in, choose the fabrics and exactly what you want, and the tailor would actually physically make the suit for you. You would have to go in a couple times to make sure the fit is correct, and the suit might take a few weeks to make, but the results are much better than off the rack suits.

You can also get bespoke shoes made and anything you can think of really.

Finding a tailor who actually does bespoke work is a bit of a difficulty in Canada. They generally tend to hang around more "stylish" places like New York, Paris, London, etc. and to learn the craft requires years of training, most likely in Italy.
