Who makes good suits. I am clueless.

When it comes to material, stitching, style, and overall quality.

price, it doesn't matter too much, just want to be informed. Maybe put the price down of the cost of an average suit in whatever brand/brands you pick. A little explanation of why you picked what you did would be nice too

Thank you very much!

O.K., I'll bite...here are a few web sites for you to view. Contact them if you see something you like - size, fit, etc.:

Brooks brothers - http://www.brooksbrothers.com/. I have three MTM suits from them and love them all. I also have a number, around 9, MTM shirts from them too. Good company and a quality product, on the whole...

Ben Silver - http://www.bensilver.com/fs_storefro...root=3&show=39. Nice studd but WAY OVERPRICED. Good source of information for style and such...

H. Stockton - http://www.hstockton.com/category.asp?c=14. I have a pair of trousers from them -Bill's Khakis. A tad overpriced but good stuff all around.

Dann-online - http://www.dann-online.com/. Some good stuff, some bad. Another good source of finding what you like. I have a few things purchased from here. Some things here are way over priced, some not so much. Feel it out and see what comes of it.

Well, hope that helped. I know it didn't give you a direct answer but that really is up to you. It's all about what you think is good. Once you find something, ask the forum for its opinion. A sanity check as it were. Good luck! You can do it.
