Where does your Dh/Oh buy suits? Mine desperately needs a new one and I persuaded him to buy one in Banana Republic a few months ago and it looks cheap and is falling apart already.

My dh loves Reiss for suits. They are very tailored/slim fitting and really look good on him (IMHO). He buy them in the sale or at Bicster Villiage, pricey new.

You really do get what you pay for with mens suits. I used to work for Austin Reed and you need to get 100% wool suit (no poly mixes) and buy the second pair of trousers to make them last. All down to the type of fabric you choose. Some wear hardier than others and some crease more or less. Might be worth going into a similar type of suiting retailer, depending on what you have locally and getting some proper advice.

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply but thank you. Reiss is available where we live but not AR. Is it worth getting a suit made if I can get hold of decent 100% wool?
