TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 I also regularly wear a suit for work. I wear a plain white pocket square, TV fold and a plain silver tie clip. Blue or black suit, depending on how traditional the family is, and usually a pretty plain, colored shirt. (White if they're super traditional, but I often try to wear the deceased's favorite color) My favorite tie is a blue silk tie with small cornflowers (also blue) embroidered on it. hipsterasfolk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cambionic Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I'll wear a tie maybe once or twice a week (outside of work). I stick with Jerry Garcia ties, because they're classy but still a little far out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twistedshabazz Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 How are the quality of these suits? My dad swears by them (they make pleats ) I wear a suit everyday for work but I've never shopped there before. I'm not going to lie, I've always been turned off by how cheap they are advertised so I have a preconceived notion that they fall apart with a year due to daily use. They stopped doing the buy one get 800 suits free thing for that reason. People thought they were cheap. I wear a suit everyday at work as well. the key is having many so you have more of a rotation which leads to less wear. When i first started working i bought 3 suits from jos a bank and they lasted like two years because i wore them into the ground. I am up to about 10-12 now and they last alot longer because i am wearing them once every two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajhall04 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Teaching I run through suits, pants, shoes fairly quick. A good sport coat though is essential to life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young Thug Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Someone gave me a 2k$ Hugo Boss suit jacket that I have no use for. It fits but I hate suits, any ideas of what I should do with it? hipsterasfolk and AllFuzzedOut 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been doing more black/charcoal/grey since I upped my shoe and belt game to Ferragamo I'll have to look at J.A. Banks though, Most my wardrobe is Hugo Boss or custom just due to my figure. Found that Hugo 44L fits my build (6'6" 230lbs) the best and then alterations to bring in the buttons a little for a tighter fit in the torso.

mbfischer12 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Here's to being an odd size - 43L. Just got a custom suit from MySuit (for those of you in NYC, it's Herald Sq). Looks great, fits great. Really happy with the purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cambionic Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 I've been massively expanding my Garcia tie collection. Just today I got four more ones from eBay for $6ppd! I like Garcia ties because they're fashionable, but still offbeat contemporary. Some are viable for a job interview/formal date while others are perfect for an added accouterment for daily semi-formal wardrobe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They carry a big selection of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a ton there, but I don't like paying full price for a tie. Even $20 is a little too much for me. Ebay has done me really well. I've gotten 6 ties for less than $20 so far!
