Dressing Better Vol 2.0

Working in a district attorney's office, I have to wear a suit regardless of how hot it is lol

Any other recommendations on light weight dress shirts?

You're making this in to a bigger issue than it is. There's tons of suits and shirts out there that are perfectly suitable for the heat. Just wear either a seersucker or any kind of light weight wools. If you want to spend the cash, there's some really nice wool+silk blends out there (Zegna, Brioni, Paul Stuart etc).

As for dress shirts, just look for something light and breathable. Twill and Poplin fabrics are key here. If you're feeling adventurous, then I would probably look into Madras.

You came to the right place, you've got 1500 pages to go through, get to work

semi srs but lets save you some time

in here you're going to get 3 basic answers,,,,high budget - made to measure, medium budget - JCrew, low budget -  Express

no matter what, get it tailored
 
Slight newbie to this thread. Never consistent with it. But it's time to invest in some good jeans so I wanna get something good and reliable.

I'm a skinny dude and short (5'5 - 5'6) so I need something that's gonna fit.

From what I remember reading in here APC is good.

If you're looking for raw denim, go to the denim section. Those guys know their stuff.

As far as APC, they're mediocre. Price to quality ratio isn't worth it either. But I personally wear them since they offer cuts most brands don't offer.

At the end of the day, it's all about how it fits.

If you're looking for quality with a fair price range, check out 3Sixteen. Don't size down for 3sixteen. Stay true. For APCs, sz down only 1.

Forgot all about the denim section. But thanks for the info. I'm looking for jeans with a good fit and jeans that are tapered? at the cuff so I don't have that baggy/loose look on the cuff

I think you're referring to "stacks?" All APCs inseam are 34 so you're gonna have to get them hemmed.

Yeah stacks.. Hmm maybe I'll bypass APCs for now. I was actually just looking at the 3Sixteens and they look nice but nothing in my size. I'm 29 waist x 30 length. I've also been postponing on a pair cause I just can't justify paying that much for some jeans. Gotta do it if I want quality though

Been buying ACNE instead of APC lately. Try them. My newest pair is the skinniest pair of jeans I've ever owned though.

Get a 30 for 3sixteens. They run small.

Nah, he's probably talking about the leg opening. I would go for 6.5" openings for a guy of your size. 
 
i snagged a couple of Outlier pieces this week- they are really nice looking and well made.  If you are on the fence because of the price, i would recommend taking a chance. They offer like a month trial period, after which you can return the item for any reason.  The products run slim.
 
Thanks for the contribution
