Greetings gentlemen.
I am, obviously, a noob, venturing to begin the journey of assembling a respectable suit wardrobe, after spending a considerable amount of time and money in adding pieces that I now find lacking in the overall quality which I now seek.
I wish to replace several of the suits I currently have in rotation. However, I am not at the point in my career (or marriage) where I can justify paying over $500-600 for a single suit. I know for some this may sound preposterous, but, alas, that's where I am at.
Also, to compound matters, I reside in a city (Oklahoma City) where OTR purchasing options are limited to several poor quality outfitters, but few higher quality ones. I have, therefore, expanded my search to include online stores as well.
Here's where I need your help. I have narrowed down my options to a few brands, and I'd like your help in selecting amongst my choices. The following are some of the brands of suits I am considering:
Banana Republic
J. Crew
Lands' End
Jos. A. Bank (Signature Gold line)
Joseph Abboud
Hugo Boss
If you have ever owned suits from any of these makers, please do chime in with your thoughts. And if you have any suggestions of better options at this price point, I'd love to hear it. Thanks.
