For me tailoring has always been the biggest factor in making a suit look expensive. Right out of college I bought a few $200 suits from a company that used to be popular in the mens youtube space and went out of business. I didnt have alot of money, but I had a good relationship with a local tailor. The man was a wizard and was able to make those cheaper suits fit me like a glove. I got a ton of compliments from guys at work wearing suits close to $1000 and they asked where I got my suits. I also got a ton of complements from women at weddings as well. Tailoring can't make up for horrible fabric, but if the fabric is "ok", having it fit you very well can elevate a suit beyond its price tag. Its also a good reminder that so many men wear horribly fitting suits that having one that fits you well can make you stand out and is much more comfortable to wear
@@ahastar1141 yes you're right we got extremely good tailors here in Pakistan usually charge 15000 (50 $)and then there are shops which will make suit for you for as little as 30 dollars only (including fabric ) surprisingly well made .they're cheap even for pakistan standard . I have seen Americans and Europeans getting custom made suits over 10 even 20 suits each I mean 10 custom made suits for under 300 dollars you can't complain 😊😊
I like these kind of videos. Most menswear influencers push their viewers to buy expensive clothes ("if you buy cheap, you look cheap!"), shaming them into purchases they wouldn't do. People aren't as knowledgeable as before, and are easily fooled if you get some basics right.
The money you spend on a suit isn't to make you look great on the first wear, its to make you look great on the 50th, or 100th, or 200th wear. You're paying for longevity.
@@Colossus823 Yeah that's what I mean. Buy the nicest looking but cheapest suit you can. It's only for one wear and if you can get more out of it, great, but if you can't, you won't have buyer's remorse.
That's great buddy, but quality suits are about a grand or more a pop and not everyone has the money for that. Closest I can find to not garbage, is Spier and Mackay, even theirs run about 800. So instead of spending a grand, I'll get a 100 dollar shitty suit, 10 times.
My best suits are under ten dollars. A Chinese estate donated suits to our local second hand store and the person is built just like me. They are custom bespoke too with his name stitched inside. I just bought a black herringbone for 13 because they raised their prices but but the fabric is beautiful and immaculate
I really enjoy your videos and look forward to them. They are honest and forthright, and you behave in a very friendly (sometimes even apologetic) and humble manner without the slightest hint of bragging *amzclothes* .
Hehe First comment. Yes, it’s entirely possible. I was down-at-heel, with an impending court case and needed a suit. I went to TKMax and purchased suit, shoes, shirt and tie for £115 (I’m in UK). The suit was £50 and I found this skilful Nepalese seamstress who tailored the suit and shirt for £55 (more than the suit). I rocked up at my son’s school concert and bumped into some old friends who said I looked like James Bond. Job done!
@@toddkane3966since 2016, I try to wear a suit once a week when possible ( preferably Saturday) To be honest I’m more of a sport coat slacks/ jeans guy … I own 5 suits total though
I been getting compliments on the Calvin Klein Brand suit I wear even though it is a mainly synthetic fabric however I also own linnen and cotton and wool Attire in regards to the Satorial style

Gentlemen I am here to tell you that thrift stores are the perfect place to find quality formal/dress wear. At least in the U.S. I have a closet full of name brand in worn or hardly worn dress attire. A good tailor and dry cleaner and you can look like a million bucks for almost nothing.
We call them charity shops in the uk. Here our fashion is very youth orientated, in fact I was on a fb group which is mainly female and they brought up that men's fashion is very young. Charity shops are great, but be careful because they often split jacket and trousers apart on different rails! Also great for cuff links, ties and cheap watches!
Nice video! I basically need to have everything tailored because I'm really hard to fit. Nothing off the rack works for me. So, buying a cheaper suit allows for tailoring expense.
Sir I don't comment as I don't see that I need to add to the noise; having said that, I appreciate all the advice youre giving here. I happened to be able to come by this info in my early life so I wasn't far off the mark. Thank you and I have consistently enjoyed the content you make. :)
Personally I don't have a lot of disposable income, having just started a new career, and whilst I'd love to have clothing from companies like Collars and Co and Ace Marks, I simply can't afford it... So more of these videos where you give advice on how to dress well on a low budget, including casual clothing, would be really helpful!
I personally wear dark navy-blue and dark-grey blazer. Both work. And the dark-grey I bought in second hand for like in us money its five dollars. in polish money its 30 bucks. dark-grey paid was 300 pln or 75 dollars. I just needed the blazers cuz I had everything at home.
I don’t know if there is such a thing as an off-the-rack suit that is worth a damn. I recently shopped Joseph Bank and Brooks Brothers and was appalled that suits costing $700+ were made so poorly. No fabric fiber content tags. Arm holes that are so cavernous you can only wear it in a standing position. Massively long sleeves that needed shortening on my 36 sleeve length. Collar rolls on the high back that could serve as jumps for my kids’ matchbox cars. Bonobos had better fit matching options but at the the price point I really think most men should opt for a made-to-measure option. Sure, an inexpensive off-the-rack suit can be had for a man on a modest budget, but he’ll spend double the price of that suit getting the alterations to make it well-fitted. If you have a muscular athletic build like this 210 pound former Marine with a 47 chest and 34 waist, just save your time and go to some made-to-measure options.
My personal top tip: suspenders. But only really applicable for somewhat special or higher end occasions. Don’t show up for a 9-5 in suspenders please 😅
Paisley pattern actually comes from My hometown here in Paisley Scotland not India,the old mills are still here and all the street names are named after the textile industry,I:e cotton street, dyers wynd,thread street 👍🏻😁
@@alanhodgkinson1717 bro, Paisley is the name of your city and how this pattern was spread and re-created there, but it originated in Persia with the name of "Botteh-jegheh" and later on, used and introduced more to the world by Indians.
Feel that a lot of guys need to make acquaintances with a tailor ... even a good seamstress can do the alterations. I found a skilled seamstress who charges less than a tailor. Money well spent; Buy less expensive items and have them fixed. Too many men running about in ill- fitted clothes .. fix even casual pieces while you're at it.
I just discovered you today. I'm a single mom of a 19 year old son, and I think that he's finally done growing, so it's time to invest in one or two suits. I know nothing about suits, shirts, shoes, ties, etc. except that my daddy always wore one and always looked sharp. I was leaning towards navy or dark gray to start as my son would prefer joggers, graphic tees, and hoodies. He really doesn't go anywhere that would require a suit, and it's just the two of us, so we won't be attending any funerals unless they're our own 😂 so I figure that he really only needs one to start, because every man should own a suit, even if he's the garbage man. Since I'm not a man and my daddy died in 2014 I was not aware that a nice, classic suit sells for so much money. I expected that there would be tailoring involved and that can be pricey, but the car I drive is older than my kid, and I only paid 1500 for it. I am on a fixed income (social security disability) due to a brain tumor a few years ago and cost is very important. I was thinking that it would run me around 250ish plus tailoring and I see that I had an unreasonable expectation 🤯 I read the comnents first to see what actual men were saying, I saw a couple mention the Goodwill as a place to source a quality suit but my son is over 6 feet tall and I'm not sure that there will be much to choose from. Also, what about cuff links? Are those necessary? I guess men's warehouse is out? I am in the USA. Arizona specifically, so 100% wool is probably not a good option?
I think his best tip was that even if you have to buy a cheaper suit, if you have it professionally tailored it will look better. So for a young man without a big paying job, I would say Men’s Wearhouse or JoS A Bank is okay if it is tailored to fit well. And when it is time to step up, maybe he can try Charles Tyrwhitt, Brooks Brothers. Indichino suits are made to fit, so if there’s one in your area, it might be a good starting point.
My cheap shoes just lost a sole. I would go with welted shoes. They aren't that expensive nowadays. I'm torn between trying to match dark brown Meermins or going with a classic black with my black suit.
Ties are about as good of a value for money you can get. For just 10 quid or so, you can upgrade from: "oh, he just put on the only suit he has" to wearing a complete "suit look" especially if the tie is of a relatively strong colour, you show that you can match colours, that you are used to wearing ties (a lot of men avoid it, just because they aren't comfortable with something touching their neck, which is only a matter of habit), and if you have to come to the same place twice, you just change your tie, and for 10 quid, you look like you are wearing something altogether different than last time
When the sleeves of a jacket need to be shortened to the point where your tailor says a button needs to be removed, does that make it look cheap? If so, can the button be reattached farther up the sleeve? A smaller size does not accomodate my broad shoulders. Also, if the jacket has no vents, is that a shortcoming a tailor can overcome?
Antonio thanks for the great information. I checked out there page and sizes; however I didn’t see anything in my size. Is there another brand you can recommend for us bigger fellas. My suite size is usually a 56 extra short.
I love suits! I want to wear casual suits as my daily outfit.. But I just absolutely hate wearing them. So uncomfortable with no elasticity or breeze (other than maybe the shirt itself) also my body runs hot, so wearing layers just kills me. Even in the winter, a shirt, then jacket may be too cold, but then an overcoat melts me. I can't win. I've tried to combat this by wearing more casual overcoats as the jacket itself for a regular outfit like jeans and t-shirt. Don't suppose you have any tips for that sort of drip?
I live in a warm climate, and I mostly rely on sports coats. I have five of them, with varying levels of formality, and varying levels of how warm/cool they are. If you want a sports coat that is breathable, look for one that is *unlined.* (They are also sometimes called "unstructured.") It's the satin lining in most jackets that doesn't breathe. I own two linen/wool blend sports coats that don't have lining, and they are much more comfortable in most temperatures. Unlined/unstructured jackets usually cost *more,* because they require a higher level of skill to make. However, they don't necessarily cost more if you buy them second-hand. For colder weather, I own a heavy tweed sports coat. It's great for outdoors (even in a light rain), but I remove it when I get indoors ... just like I would remove any other jacket. It's too warm for room temperature.
You know it's not going to be durable, the threads used are thin, the foam and canvass going to be glued, when you dry clean it it's going to melt, but it's good enough for your presentations without breaking the bank.
It has been said _(The Chap's Guide)_, what ever you spend on your suit, you should spend a bit more on the shoes, as they carry your entire weight, like car tyres take the weight of your car!
No need to spend a lot of money on the accessories. Plenty of nice second hand ties and other accessories to be had for very little money in charity shops or on eBay. -and if you get a set with matching tie and pocket square, just don't wear them together.
Excellent video ! Good content and lots of it. My input would be ..address your physique. I’ve been complimented all my life on my ordinary clothes, because i’ve been fit over 5 decades. Fellas, drop 5-10 lbs. (also gives you a chance for new slacks) !
If you have a lot of time (and very little money), then shopping for a second-hand suit makes a lot of sense. Items like suits (and sports coats) are often resold when they've barely been worn. It's possible to find all-natural fibers and still pay less than $100.
@@karlr750 oh absolutely. There is a webshop called Vinted here in Europe ( not sure if it’s available in the US ). I bought already lots of clothes that way. My last buy was a Zegna summer tuxedo and was hardly worn if ever. For Less than 50 $. Another 50 $ or so on alterations and I was ready to go.
Thanks for sharing brother! Appreciate everything! I keep learning every video! 🫡👊🏻 Wedding here soon and ive got a suit but need to figure out my shirt and tie. I lways wear a solid light purple tie or pink. The shirt I'm iffy on. Maybe white
Ties are really dying out right now. Even for a formal occasion you can look like a right solid rogue showing up with the button down collar shirt open at the top with a great suit , pocket square and shoes. Unless it’s black tie and how many of us are hitting those even once a year?🤷🏻♂️
That's how I got a big collection of high end silk ties for about 1 Euro each, from a businessman who retired. I like ties, and to have a ton of patterns and colours to choose from is great. I wear them even with more casual outfits.

You know it's not going to be durable, the threads used are thin, the foam and canvass going to be glued, when you dry clean it it's going to melt, but it's good enough for your presentations without breaking the bank.
I make it look expensive by having it tailored, then spending just a little more on a nice quality shirt and tie 👔
The price of the suit isn't as important as how well it's tailored.
Never, NEVER steam the front of a suit jacket if it is fused (glued). You'll destroy it. Sewed canvas jackets are safe.
It has been said _(The Chap's Guide)_, what ever you spend on your suit, you should spend a bit more on the shoes, as they carry your entire weight, like car tyres take the weight of your car!
I buy my own materials for all my gear
So that was, what, 8 calls to action across 11 minutes of video?
No need to spend a lot of money on the accessories. Plenty of nice second hand ties and other accessories to be had for very little money in charity shops or on eBay.
-and if you get a set with matching tie and pocket square, just don't wear them together.
Excellent video ! Good content and lots of it. My input would be ..address your physique. I’ve been complimented all my life on my ordinary clothes, because i’ve been fit over 5 decades. Fellas, drop 5-10 lbs. (also gives you a chance for new slacks) !
Where can you even get a cheap suit😅 I got like $40😅
i have no hair to even style 😂
🤣😂
Unfortunately, most if not all suits under 100 bucks are made out of synthetics such as polyester. To each is own but not for me.
If you have a lot of time (and very little money), then shopping for a second-hand suit makes a lot of sense. Items like suits (and sports coats) are often resold when they've barely been worn. It's possible to find all-natural fibers and still pay less than $100.
@@karlr750 oh absolutely. There is a webshop called Vinted here in Europe ( not sure if it’s available in the US ). I bought already lots of clothes that way. My last buy was a Zegna summer tuxedo and was hardly worn if ever. For Less than 50 $. Another 50 $ or so on alterations and I was ready to go.
Thanks for sharing brother! Appreciate everything! I keep learning every video! 🫡👊🏻
Wedding here soon and ive got a suit but need to figure out my shirt and tie. I lways wear a solid light purple tie or pink. The shirt I'm iffy on. Maybe white
Great to hear you're learning from the videos! Thank you!
Find stuff from goodwill, then tailor it? 😂Idk
Your suit jackets are all too short.
I'm disappointed that you are advertising cheap suits (and shoes) from China. What's next, Coofandy?
LOL@ suits
There is no way a $ 63 suit is going to look good. Acceptable, maybe, but you're gonna look like a waiter.
Yah, for sure...😂
Black suits are for black tie? This guy doesn’t go to many funerals or weddings.
Have you ever heard of "the exception proves the rule"? Yah....
Ties are really dying out right now. Even for a formal occasion you can look like a right solid rogue showing up with the button down collar shirt open at the top with a great suit , pocket square and shoes.
Unless it’s black tie and how many of us are hitting those even once a year?🤷🏻♂️
That's how I got a big collection of high end silk ties for about 1 Euro each, from a businessman who retired. I like ties, and to have a ton of patterns and colours to choose from is great. I wear them even with more casual outfits.
I need it this right here 🫡♥️
