I heard Jos A. Bank has Buy 1 suit for $200 get the 2nd for $100.


Any ideas?
I would check H&M and if that fails go the rental route.

Generaiya wants to know if anyone has experience with the sizing of shoes from Harry's of London.

Generaiya is thinking about picking up these wingtips on Gilt. $259 is a steal.

Go to your local Goodwill or thrift store, especially one thats near a wealthy or high income area. Buy you a Brioni, CK, HBoss, Brooks Bros, Stafford, Ralph Lauren, or Hart Schff. Marx suit for about 10-20 dollars.  Get a good quality tie there too for 5 bucks, trust me. THEN spend that 85 bucks on a good tailor to get that fitted right. Heck, if you have an extra 100 or 200 bucks laying around spend that on some nice dress shoes on sale that were originally 200-250 dollars. Never fails.

I'd wear the shoes (gucci i assume) with better fitting dark grey or black jeans with a white/grey tee and a black leather or baracuta jacket (if it is that cold). 

Again, all nice pieces, just have to wear them differently and focus on fit.

I think they fit pretty true to size, not too narrow and not too wide in the toe box so just get what you normally wear in euro.  I have a pair of suede brogues and patent boat shoes from Harry's of London.  Pretty satisfied with the quality thus far, especially on the patent boat shoes.  Check nordy rack or Loehman's as I've seen their drivers pop up from time to time.  Very comfortable.
