Ever buy a suit?

What is the most you ever paid for one?



I have to today. My cuz is getting married this saturday and I am driving down to Columbus for her wedding on Saturday.

I assume they alter at K&G so hopefully they can do this by then.

you can get a nice suit at most mens stores for under a bill.

I hope I find one cheap. I heard you can do this with brand name stuff.

Every once in awhile some one will talk about a suit or something like that and I have nothing to add to the conversation. I think the only dress clothes I have at all are 1 pair of black pants, 2-3 button up plaid shirts, 1 white dress shirt, 1 pair of black dress shoes (like faux Doc Martin style). I probably have 1-2 polo/rugby style shirts too, but thats about it!

I've had the same jacket for years.
I just keep buying pants as my waist grows.
time for the gym

i had one funeral suit and one wedding suit for over a decade.

i picked up two new ones (that actually fit) about two years ago. got 'em at macy's where i was able to use my wife's employee discount on top of sale prices. both CK, originally like $400 each. when all was said and done, i was out of there for like $275 for the pair. gotta tell ya, as glad as i am that i don't have to wer one every day, i look pretty fucking good in a suit!

I've had a few suits over the years, the last suit I bought, and still owned, I told the guy, I need a suit for all seasons and all occasions, nice gray suit with some very subdued pinstriping, can't remember what I paid, 350$ maybe, the suit before that I paid 800$ for and left it on a bus a week later.

I have yet to buy/wear a suit...but I'm still young.

I dont play around when I buy a suit. I usually drop 4-6 (hundred). Which includes shirt, belt, tie, shoes, pants and coat obviousley. Thats expensive for me. But I figure anytime I wear a suit, which is more often than I admit, I want to look the best.

I got one.

Dark grey wool. Its bad ass. Picking it up friday and the black guy who sold it to me made me laugh. Good dude. Agrees with me that the Indians need to trade CC SABATHIA.
:cool:
