Thoughts? Is it too much or trying too hard? I saw someone on the street wearing one earlier and couldn't tell if he was a hipster or a non-profit attorney.

I sure as frick couldn't wear one here in Texas.

I sweat my arse off when I don't even wear a jacket.

Doesn't count. They can make pink, white, neon orange, alligator, lizard, etc suits look cool.

Their popularity waivers often and quickly. They can be OK, but they're just not my thing.

I think in certain situations they look good, particularly for special events. But the one in the picture you posted is trying too hard IMO.

Doesn't look good on that douche. Would look good on me though.

I don't mind three piece suits, but don't ever buy a wool tie like the jackass in that picture.

ive always preferred them. They just look neater. I dont like the way the tie flops about. Yes, Im aware of tie tacks or whatever.

If you are going to wear one, you better be thin.

I like them, but just like any other suit it has to be cut right.

If I wear a suit, I only wear 3 piece.

It's an old habit my grandfather had. I always thought you were supposed to. When I was old enough to realize you weren't, I felt stupid not having it.

You just have to have a bigger chest than belly to pull it off.

Lol, no they don't. Sagging your pants past your arse is never cool.

That dude has the shoulders of a prepubescent boy.

Looks like he wears a 34 jacket.

This is true to a large degree, no pun intended.

Similar to a thin lapel/skinny tie look, you have to have a thin body type to pull it off. Not in all cases, but most.

I saw someone at work in one the other day. Everyone else was in jeans, and some dickbag comes in wearing a 3 piece.

turns out that new dress code is suit/tie, which blows. I sure as hell won't wear a 3 piece suit.

I do like just the vest/tie look though. And will wear that bar hopping, usually get compliments on it.
