Yup. The markup on suits is insane.Originally Posted by Retro23J
Jos. A Banks online is the only way I'll buy suits from them. They always have crazy discounts on their suits and shirts, like this weekend they have 50% off everything and 60% off the second item. Then when it arrives, just take it to the closest store for alterations.Originally Posted by Destination Kicks
Jos. A Banks is much nicer than Mens Warehouse. I go there 'cus my boy hooks me up with 70% off suits and 50% off shirts and if I get a suit he only charges me for alterations on the pants. Got a $895 and a $595 suit and two $100 dress shirts for under $600 after alterations.Originally Posted by omgitswes
Oh. and I needed a suit within a week back in December so I went to Jos A Bank. Talked them down to a nice price and after alterations it came out okay.
Most people don't recommend places like that and Mens Warehouse though

alright so i'm really trying to get my grown man on and I have enough street clothes, now I need to invest in some suits...right now...here's my logic:
light grey suit - weddings, formal events
charcoal suit - interviews, working
navy suit - interviews, weddings
black suit - working
Someone school me...i'm looking for some nice fitting suits in the $400-500 range each...I got a family event in May, I got a wedding in Tampa in August, I start grad school in Sept so I needz some advice.
I was gonna try Express, Macys, Banana, Top Shop, and uniqlo....
Thanks for the advice
Completely agree with everything said, for a work suit go with a "classic" well fitting suit. For a suit you will wear to formal events, or if you plan to use a jacket as a blazer you can play with fits ("modern"/"slim"). Same with pants and how you taper/hem them.Originally Posted by 0cks
If you need a suit for work in a professional environment, you prolly don't want anything from H&M, Express, or J Crew... those are better for New Years parties, Weddings or "high-end" Clubs.
But this is NT where everything is in extremes... if it's not wetsuit tight then it must be a "Choppa suit"
(those Steve Harvey suits with +4 buttons are useless unless you're a deacon or pastor at a black church in the south)

2001? Unless you were getting drafted in the NBA that year, pretty sure 4 buttons were just as ridiculous 10+ years ago

Not as bad as I thought. These suits are necessary for the black church and nothing else. But I would recommend less buttons and less pockets.
