Purchased my first suit yesterday, does the pricing sound right?

[CharBaby]

I like Jos. A. Bank. I bought several items from their local store; jackets, blazers, shirts.
For shoes in my price range, I like Johnson & Murphy and Allen Edmonds. But you can go hog wild on shoes as well.
For suits(because I live in Rochester) I like Hickey Freeman but I have lesser brands as well.

That looks good.

Seems I've lost many of mine but. This one remains.. Dont even say it, yeah it needs to be cleaned up.View attachment 82145

Is this a suit or a sport jacket and beige slacks?
It looks like there may be a vest on the wire.


This is the bitog equivalent of buying an expensive car then not maintaining it.

Conservative, black. You need a decent tie to go with a pressed white shirt.
Shine those shoes.

What ever looks good and is in your budget.

Sometimes you gotta start at Salvation Army. All good.

Sometimes you gotta start at Salvation Army. All good.

This is actually a very good way to go. If you know your size, you can get quality Hickey Freeman, Burberry, Hart Schaffner and Marx, etc, jackets and suits for very little.

When I need a new suit, I just roll the homeless...

Can't wear a suit indoors. Gets too hot and uncomfortable.

Same here. And I hate neckties.

 

[Donald]

Yes indeed, you did just fine!
Could you have $pent le$$?...SURE!
But, would you look as good?...Mmmm, maybe!
However, you could have certainly $PENT WAAAAAAAAAY MORE...And I mean, well into the THOU$AND$.

Now, you mentioned that you have shoes on order? That's GREAT!
What about the tie?
And don't forget a wrist watch. Nothing gaudy. Something that slips under the cuff. Doesn't need to be expensive.

Bow tie

Usually a higher end suite is well higher end.

Not talking hotel rooms.
