Morning All,

Where abouts do people get their suits from? I quite fancy getting a couple of new ones for my new job.

Probs about £150 on each?

I got one from Zara and one in a sale at House of Frazer.

They're cheap suits.

I bought a suit from Matalan the other day, its alright actually.

Mainly from Topman because they fit me well as I like them quite small fitting and they do Slim/Skinny fit, bloody expensive though at £99 for just the jacket.

You think £99 is expensive for a Suit Jacket? ROFL

You can tell a cheap/ill fitting Nylon Suit from a Mile away. Not something I would skimp on personally. Mind you see a lot of people wearing Ok Suits and then letting themselves down with loafer shoes

£99 is still quite cheap for a suit jacket tbh. I have a couple of suits from M&S that were around 300ish but i'm just after a couple as I will have to be suited every day for my new job.

£99 is not cheap for a suit jacket from Topman, which I believe was his point.

I get mine from Slaters, they cater for every price range.

I believe this is your interpretation and not his actual point.

I suspect his response will favour whomever he likes more though.

Me too, its simple that way no faffing about raking through rails looking for the right one to get a bargin like in TK Maxx etc. Walk in and a person says "you are this size" then ask you what style and hey presto you have a suit.

Burtons, £99 for jacket and trousers, job done. Wear them often so CBA shelling out £300 on one.

My tailor flys over from HongKong twice a year.

About £300 for a fully made to measure suit in any style/cut and material I chose, with spare pair of trousers since they tend to wear quicker than the jackets.

I am assuming this is someone you have heard of and been put in contact with? Do they fly over and measure up a bunch of people?
