I bought my first suit in college on a very limited budget for my upcoming job interviews. It was a pinstripe navy suit from I think Men's Warehouse. Now that I've been working for 3+ years, I want to have at least one nice, high quality suit that's not pinstripe.
Any suggestions on where to go?
I'm prepared to spend around $1G

 

Downtown L.A. is a hit or miss as I have found most are single stitch suits which tear easy but if you look around there is some good quailty suits in that area but hard to find

 

hollywood suit outlet has a great selection with all the nice companies too... armani and all that noise

 

You can get really nice stuff at Roger Stuart's in downtown L.A. off of Los Angeles St. You'll find high-end stuff at least 30% off of what department stores charge. I would give them a try...

 

Los Angeles Street is where most of the Suit outlets are and you can spend most of the day looking around in that general area. Panza where you been bro ???????????

 

edit..

 

Nordstroms. Unmatched customer quality and good price. I bought my only suit there. Hugo Boss...I think it was $800 a few years back. You can bring it back whenever you want for fittings. THey'll customize to your size for free.

 

Hey what's up Ed. I've been doing pretty good dude, how about you? I just haven't been on the boards as much this year. I'm trying to visit more often though. How's your baby daughter doing?

 

Downtown LA is hella cheap go there on 11th Street and Santee

 

+1 you will get what you pay for there. Or you can also try Nordstrom Rack.

 

Seventh & Los Angeles St downtown

go to korea town. like mr. yangs they usually have cheap prices and their stuff varies from high end italian suits to cheap ole wool suits

 

Anywhere in Fashion Distrect of downtown L.A. is a great place to get some deals on name brand suits. Just watch out for the fake stuff.

 

Downtown suits are normally low end Italian suits. Good for the price, but skimp a bit on the design. I've bought my share at Santee Suits in LA for $200-$400 with all the bells and whistles down to shoes (gave me blisters)!

If you want a nice designer original that is suited for YOUR body try a large department store like Nordstroms or Macy's (Beverly center). Both have a large suit section that will help you find a suit that is made for your needs.

You can also try Burlington Coat Factory in Del Amo. They have a section of high end suits like Hugo Boss and Armani for half the price of department stores. They also have a tailor on staff that will help you custom fit some if needed. Good luck!

 

Koreatown +1. Also, I've gotten a couple of suits from Burlington Coat Factory, no joke. No tears or anything and my first one has lasted me 4 years to date.

Hey Corona6! You drive aroudn South Gate a lot right?

 

Burlington Coat Factory has some surprise finds.

If you want one REALLY CHEAP check out H&M. Theres one at the Beverly Center, Santa Anita Mall and i dont know where else, they popping up everywhere. <$500 at H&M

 

Sup bro! Havent seen you on the forums nor around your uncles place. From the list on your sig you've been busy! Hit me any time, you now have my user name!

 

Bernini has decent prices if you try to bargain with them.

 

Brooks Brothers classic looks and great quality. The suits can be tailored to you for under $1000. Majority of my work clothes are from there.

 

The SWAPT MEET! lol
