Help with suit

Hi all,

This question has undoubtedly been posted many times. I need a decent, stylish, quality affordable suit. Currently I only have one, a charcoal josbank that is a bit too big and more fitting for funerals than anything else. I own a small construction company and my clothing budget tends to go into quality cold weather work apparel (which actually gets quite expensive!). As things got more serious with my gf, now fiancé I find myself looking at a lot of upcoming events that require a suit, and mine sucks. I’d like to purchase two, one casual one more formal, that will cover all the bases of what I need them for (weddings, funerals, nice dinners etc). I like the look of a slim fit, but not that modern “looks like it’s about to rip when buttoned” look. I’m 34, 6’0, 175lbs with an athletic build but pretty thick legs and backside. I would like to spend less than $1000 for both suits, but could buy one and wait for the next if it’s worth it. Would still prefer to stay =\<$500 per suit. Thanks in advance for your response!

Try Suit Supply - their suits start at US$399, which is within your budget. But you have to pay for alterations
