Thoughts on these two suits ...

That seems way too much for RTW. Of course you can spend that but why not look at the likes of Marks and Spencers?


Generally speak about about £350 on RRW suits excluding tailoring costs. It's just rarely I might go up to £500. In regards to Marks and Spencer suits, they have very limited options for half canvas suits. Furthermore their lapels are far too slim for my liking, so that rules them out. Thanks for the suggestion though.

If you're referring to the six suits that I listed above, those are suits that I own, not choices to consider. If not, my apologies.


No, I'm referring to the first two in your opening post.

As a lawyer in a law firm, I haven't seen anyone wear a DB suit in many years. Could be our firm, we are pretty conservative. I'd stick with SB, lawyer colors--grays, blues, etc. My old boss told me when I first stared to practice--when you try a case, you wear a navy suit or a gray one, a white shirt and a tie that won't piss anyone of. It's over the top, but I still stick to that when on trial.
