where to buy a suit

[D. Lil]

My girlfriend works at a high end hotel in Uptown. She says the all the guys there from the VP and down get suits from suit supply. I plan to get my next one from there. They are all around 500!

Its all relative i guess...but ive never gotten a good fitting and high quality suit from MW. Ive had 4 over 6 years and only bought the last one because i was a groomsmen in a wedding. They are finally making better athletic cut stuff but still not high quality.

I just wear camo shorts and a black shirt when i meet with CTO's, but I've bought my Hugo suits at Macy's. I think Men's Warehouse turned into a volume store, its not really where you'd go for nice suits, I'm probably wrong though.

No youre right.

Proms, weddings, bulk cheap first suits...etc.

You can buy good brand suit separates in various fitments (sport, slim, flat front pants, low rise, relaxed, etc) at department stores. Either way, I would still advise getting the sleeve and pant length tailored if not they don't sit perfectly. Macys is typically cheaper than Dillards, Nordstrom is nicer for sure but costs more, Nordstrom rack might be a good suggestion but I cant handle places like that.

Watch out for some brand name outlets, they sell outlet only stuff with crap quality (like banana republic). Also instead of MW/KG/JoS, you can hit up a Perry Ellis outlet and pay ~$80-100 for a suit coat + pants. I have a 3 pc from them and the quality is quite nice for the $100 I spent.

JC Penney for what you are looking for.

for that money you can probably find a nice hickey freeman (will last decades) or similar suit at nordstrom rack and get it tailored. Look for 100% wool or wool/cashmere. No polyester EVER. Make sure the jacket fits well in the shoulders, everything else can be tailored.

Express for men

Sears. Not only are they reversible but they are washer and dishwasher safe.

Thrift shop..

All my suits have come from Jos A Bank. I just don't wear them enough to justify the price tag for a baller suit. I am very cheap when it comes to clothes (with the exception of shoes), so if I was going to buy one of higher quality, I would definitely get it from Nordstrom Rack.

nothing wrong with a jos a bank suit if you get them on sale especially if you hardly wear them. Its all about tailoring. you can have a well tailored JAB suit that looks better than a poorly tailored $10,000 suit all day long

How long are you wanting to keep and wear it? Fused jackets are cheaper, but they don't last as long as a full canvassed suit. Tailoring is a MUST unless you go bespoke (choo choo, mofucka) Stay away from designer names, as their suits will look good, but be shit quality. Brooks Brothers has some pretty nice shit, but it's all more expensive than the 100-150 suits most in here are talking about. There are a ton of small details in a suit that stand out. Tailored or not, a cheap suit will not look or last as well as a nicer suit for a few hundo more. Most of the full canvas suits I've been looking at start in the 4-500 range.

I buy my stuff from Jos A Bank, but I typically buy sports coats and slacks separately, because i'm built like a V. Anything suit wise needs to be completely rebuilt in the pants, unless I buy separates, which I've hardly found them in the right sizes.

I've always wanted to have a good company make me some custom tailored shirts, suits, pants and jackets. But the cost has always been out of range for the actual use I'd get out of them.

A buddy of mine works at Jos A Banks. I bought one today that is decent. Makes no sense to buy a suit and go no tie though...
