Thrift Store...
Go to a few, and you'll find which has nice suits. Don't be discouraged if you go to a few stores and not find crap. Keep it up and I guarantee after going to a handful or two you'll find what you want for $10-25. Possibly even multiple suits. I found one that only had 30-40 suits, at least 10 of which are Brooks Brothers and up.
I've been visiting five or six thrift stores in my area regularly. It's tough to find anything in 38 S, and when I do happen across a suit in the right size, it's either some funky pattern, has huge lapels, or the sleeves are too short and there is no fabric left. I've been perusing thrift stores for a few months now, and finding anything close to my size (38 S, 29/30 pants, 8-9 wide or extra wide shoes) is rare.
Some of H&M suits are wool, some are not. Just look more carefully. Try Target.
Does Target carry solid navy suits? Last time I checked they had various grays and patterns, but no solid navy. I'd be willing to go for a solid charcoal, but I would prefer navy.
And how much do said H&M wool suits cost? I know the cheaper ones were around $70 for the jacket and $30-40 for the trousers.
