Post pics man!

It's at S&M for a little while for alterations. But I will as soon as it's ready!

Went in person and picked up the light blue suit that's on sale. You guys are sleeping on that one - it is really nice and will look good with loafers and a white shirt for a summer vibe.

Looking forward to pics!

Anyone have any recommendations for a "final sale" suit that is good in hot weather and fairly conservative? For example, the wool/linen drago blue check above looks great but would be a bit too casual.

How about a tropical or feesco? I think both come in navy and dark grey (or grey-brown).

Not at all aligned with your query, but I'd highly advocate shelling out a bit more (assuming your size is available) for one of the Minnis offerings. Appropriate for all but the most conservative of settings, and such nice, durable cloth

Thank you, but not available in my size as well as a bit over budget

I can wear contemporary 36 or Slim 38. Thanks!

I've almost hit Purchase on this multiple times. Still have the tab open.

The budget gods (in collusion with a way over budget home reno) restricted me to one suit for this sale. Killed me not to get the Drago, but the VBC PoW seemed more versatile for a young lawyer in a conservative office

@spiermackay any spoilers on new ties? I cleaned out my tie drawer yesterday and realized I am in need of a few more winter ties.

The NEO? You won't regret it. I love mine. The pattern is a bit loud, and definitely not city attire, but I love in the burbs so it's perfect.

Seconded.

I don’t want spoilers, but I’d love a knit tie or two and some grenadine. In due course.

@spiermackay is there a difference of sleeve widths between the regular and slim sport jackets?

Has anyone successfully let out waist in neo cut with patch pockets?

Has anyone successfully let out waist in neo cut with patch pockets?

yes...although there isn't a ton of extra fabric. I got about 1" on a couple 42L Neo's with Patch pockets.
