Take him to Sam's in Hong Kong. They'll make him a nice suit cheap.

JCPenney.

I got my $100 Stafford navy blazer looking like a million bucks thanks to my tailor.

You can rent a suit from men’s warehouse with a tie/vest for about $60. Pickup on Friday, drop off Sunday, they fit, no hassle.

I’d say Kohl’s or maybe TJ Maxx if you catch the right location on the right day.

If your son is in high school wearing tailored clothes, prepare yourself to meet his boyfriend.

Are you retarded? You just buy a suit off the rack and wear it? Stick to only commenting on boots and church jeans threads.

Target.

Then go buy the boy a real pair of shoes at somewhere like Stein Mart and get a nice tie.

I needed a gray suit a few months back and got one for under $100 at Hagger in Tanger mall. It was made in vietnam and will prob only last a few wears though.

For homecoming, Kohl's will do just fine.

Unless your kid is built like an orangutan, just get him a suit off the rack. He's going to wear it a couple of times and outgrow it, trash it, or want a new suit because he's worn the same suit for the past couple of dances and wants to change it up.

When I was in retail I had a dad throw a fit because I wouldn't "tailor" a suit for his kid who was a perfect 38 Short. The suit fit the kid perfectly, but the pretentious dad demanded that his son wear a tailored suit. So I made some chalk marks and told him to pick it up the next day. We steamed off the chalk marks and sold him the unaltered suit with "FREE ALTERATIONS" listed on the receipt.

Great, that happened for one kid out of how ever many dudes have bought suits ever. In six months, he won't fit that suit anymore, and will need a new one tailored. It only costs $40-100, and takes a day or three.

I fit best in a 44 regular, slim cut. My arms are too big for every stock coat, so I can't lift them. Therefore, I have to get every jacket tailored so I can lift my arms. It looks like I'm wearing my HS jackets if not
