  • Where to buy my first real suit

    Looking for bespoke naturally.

    Your first real suit was your birthday suit. Everything else is a pale imitation.

    At least, this is the case for me.

      Mens Wearhouse is a decent place to buy suits.
      If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

        Brooks Brothers is the level I'm looking at.

          Your first suit? What the ****? You're like 30.

            I've purchased three suits in my life. All of which were because of my work with investment banks. I've recycled a couple at weddings and funerals.

            Otherwise, I never wear them. My work clothes tend to involve hoodies (winter) or t-shirt (summer) and jeans.

              Ive gotten by on slacks, button down and tie for years for any formal thing out here.

                Why don't you wear birkenstock sandals while you're at it?

                    That's not formal. That's the bare minimum of business professional. Technically, business professional is 'informal'. Formal is a whole another ballpark. Formal is white-tie.

                      I don't actually own a suit at the moment but there were many occasions at school when I was expected to wear a suit or a blazer, and whenever I went to an interview I wore a blazer.

                        Because sandals are gay.

                        I wear skate shoes actually. Well, in the summer.

                        In the winter I wear hiking shoes.

                          There's no summer in Canada. It's just Almost Winter, Winter, Still Winter, and Road Maintenance. (thank you reddit for that one!)

                            We don't do road maintenance in Calgary. That's why everyone drives SUVs.

                            Low taxes.

                              Either way, I have survived without bespoke for years but now I want to get down with awesome threads. So either put up or shut up.
