3 piece suits info

Hey guys,

I'm new to the forum, and was wondering if you guys might be able to fill me in on a few things.

For starters, I'm fairly "new" to the fashion world, and have no idea what name brands are decent when it comes to suits, save for Brioni. That being said, I tend to prefer quality and long-lasting over a name anyway. Secondly, I'm not a big guy, 6' 160lbs, 15" neck. Thirdly, I tend to find my taste in fashion leans more towards classic, reserved types rather than to newer, trendy things. So basically blacks/navies/greys with pleats/cuffs on the pants, white shirts with french cuffs, black oxfords, and whatever tie matches the outfit. Basically this photo sums up my tastes



So with that in mind, I was wondering if you guys could direct me towards any brands/tailors/whomever you feel makes decent suits, specifically leaning towards 3 piece/classic 3-button types? I'm starting work in the accounting field, and as such am in the market for a new wardrobe, but unfortunately for me I am clueless when it comes to what is decent these days

Thanks very much for your time guys, and I look forward to hearing back from you

Well again, I really don't have a clue regarding what something should cost, but I also know that there is "no free lunch" either. I would think as a rough estimate though I could do a maximum of $1000/suit, but would much prefer to hit something in the $400-600 mark.

That being said, if that won't come close to covering the costs, then I can always go up as well.

Basically what it comes down to is that I am uninformed as to what good quality suits cost, as well as what "names" constitute a decent suit.

Just personal taste is all.

Hey guys,

thanks for the replies so far. Yes, I live in a "cold climate". I'm up in Canada, so we tend to see our share of snow up here.

Do Brooks Brothers make fairly decent stuff?
