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'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

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.
