Need mid-price good quality suit for DH, please help!

Would be so grateful if anyone can recommend a decent mid-price suit (say £100-£200) for DH. We are a bit skint but he needs one for interviews.

One he bought from Next last year did not stand up to heavy wear as the trousers fell apart (admittedly he wore it almost constantly for about a year).

MIL wants him to buy one from Asda...I would like to avoid this option if at all possible!

Thanks in advance

Are there any good general menswear shops in your area?
DH goes to Slaters, but I think they are only in Scotland. They sell a range of prices and will do alterations aswell.

Nicky, slaters have loads of brances now- not just in Scotland. Slaters.

Marks, buy two pairs of trousers at the time, makes the suit last waaaay longer!

look at burtons online - better sale stuff than in store.

Dp bought one from Next, £130. Very nice suits there, and you can order it in if they don't have the size instore.

Thanks all, will drag DH round the shops tomorrow to have a peep at some of your recommendations. He doesn't really 'get' shopping, the poor lamb
