First off, I would like to express my appreciation for all the valuable information on this site. I've learned a lot from just reading old posts. Thank you for that.
Now on to my question..
A local clothier/habadashery is having a "50-70% off expansion sale" and I had spoken to the owner over the telephone.
He said he had some RL suits for around $300 (normally $600-700). My question is what line of suit should I be expecting, given the above? Please include any specifics about the quality of the line (canvassing, modern/traditional, etc).
The reason I am concerned is (besides my general lack of knowledge) that he also mentioned he had Michael Kors suits (for either $200 or $300). That kind of worried me, as I recall reading generally negative things about them--mostly them being derided as complete garbage.
I'm looking for something traditional, with at least half canvassing, in a three season weight (medium?) wool on a budget (<= $300). But I would prefer to go over budget for something decent, and that I will be happy with, rather than cheaping out and getting "good crap," so to speak.
Any insight, advice or help would be greatly appreciated. Oh and go easy on me (you know who you are) for trying to find something alright and affordable. I'm a full time student (but I have a decently paying internship).
Thanks.
