what part of "Hell No" did you not get. I'm usually with you on what you post. Nirvana/Pearljam sucking? We were in full agreement, but, damn you lost me on this one.
I do see where you're going with your question, but that suit was under $100 for a reason. Plus...Structure? Really? I haven't even begun to address the flaws in that purchase decision.

Go to Brooks Brothers, Ron. And get fitted by someone who knows what they're doing.
Of find whatever the old line type clothing store there is in Louisville.

I own a khaki Structure suit, and I get raves every time I wear it. People always asking me where I got it. Quit being such a fricking snob. Are you Iluv's fiancee?

Most big towns have an old school fine clothing store, run by folks who know what they're doing.
See, Perlis in N.O., or formerly Todd Garland, in BR.
I'm guessing there's something like that in Louisville.

i wear a suit everyday and i get most of mine from Men's wearhouse. To be stylish be sure and get flat front pants. No pleats!! Very out of style.
Posted on 2/18/08 at 11:11 am to Y.A. Tittle
i just googled and there is a brooks brothers near my house. would this be your suggestion? is this an expensive place, and will i be able to get the suit within three days?

Finally, someone reinforces my initial suggestion. Its worth the extra money to get a suit that fits just right.

Isn't that kind of what tailors are for? I've never had an AZN screw mine up so pick wisely.

I agree. A good tailor makes all the difference in the world. Dont take the cheap way out cause believe me you will get what you pay for

how familiar are you with the brand? did you shop there when they were one of the most popular stores for contemporary mens clothing in most malls?

I just prefer a quality suit tailored by someone that only deals with them. And I know that the guys at the New Orleans store are excellent at what they do. I've bought suits elsewhere and just wasn't as pleased as I am with my BB ones.
