After some recommendations from friends that wear them quite a bit I went to Men’s Warehouse for their $199 sale. The one I got was $219 and tailoring and $20 off brought the total to $250 for everything. Impressed with it and seems like a good start.

I recently bought a suit from DKNY and it fits fairly nice. Quality doesn’t seem too shabby thus far.

What is Bureau’s price range? Classy guys over there for sure.

I’d have to look up my suit size but I’m a few millimeters under 5’11" and a slim 175 lbs

Just get married. Then you get a “free” “$1,000” suit. Btw, Jos. A. Bank = Men’s Warehouse
