I like it, but I only have one set of nice formal wear: my shirt, sport coat, gray slacks, tie, and black shoes. I have no tux. On the few occasions that I have worn said coat, it was pretty awesome. I clean up good, if I do say so myself.

As opposed to the 'jeans and t-shirt' masses? Yeah.Nickolai77 said:I don't like wearing suits.
Firstly, they arn't the most comfy things in the world. Stiff shoulder pads, stiff trousers, the tie knot pressing at your throat, the collar at the back of your neck. Suits aren't made for comfort, and i take a very pragmatic view to what i wear. Comfort, and if it will keep me cool or warm depending on the environment, are factors i consider way before style.
And as for suits themselves, businessmen wear them. I'm not a businessman, i'm myself and prefer to dress as myself and not as part of the collective. I look back on my old prom photos and i look like some sort of political clone from a Labour party conference. I don't think suits suit me, and i find them de-individualising and uncomfortable.
To add to the waistcoat have a pocket watch my friend and then you really look the shizz.Anchupom said:My school uniform was what could be referred to as a suit. Blazer, shirt, tie, trousers. Bullcrap. The blazers were shite and the trousers were horrible.
I'm now in sixth form of that same school and I wear a PROPER blazer (worth £90), proper suit trousers, and a proper shirt. And I feel the shizz.
I'm now losing weight so I can get myself a waistcoat and feel mega-happy.
If you think the "jeans and t-shirt masses" all look the same i think you need your eyes testing mate.Daystar Clarion said:As opposed to the 'jeans and t-shirt' masses? Yeah.Nickolai77 said:I don't like wearing suits.

Raz, kingsizedirect.com helped me find a suit. I am 6'7 with arms damn near as long as my legs. Try that.GoldenRaz said:I've never really had the chance to wear a suit. I've been to only a few formal events, and I've settled for a shirt and tie at those times.
Nowadays, I'm lucky if I can find a shirt that fits me. Damn tall and slender body build!
Why thank you my good man. I think everyone can look good in a suit, it's just a matter of finding one that suits the person wearing it.Vagabond_Samurai said:Raz, kingsizedirect.com helped me find a suit.

As for the question, I've wanted to wear a suit since I was a child. Now that I can, I usually do. I even had a woman randomly come up to me praising god for nice young men. Wonder if it is because I'm black...lol~
There's a sense of respect associated with it that I enjoy.
Good question.
That is epic. What made you come up with that idea?WittyInfidel said:Few things can help somebody feel Alpha Male like wearing a sit. We've been taught from a young age that person in a suit equals intelligence, prosperity, and respect.
Or you work for the mob. One or the other.
True story: a friend and I used to "meet" at a local watering hole. We would both be dressed nicely in suits and be carrying briefcases. One would arrive first, then the other would join up about ten minutes later. We would sit, chat a bit while having a glass of wine, make a show of swapping briefcases and a large manila envelope, then leave. Got to be that people were watching us and rumor got around. Long story short, the cases were full of newspaper, but it was worth a laugh. Even the cops had a sense of humor, thankfully.
Yeah, I love to suit up.
