Finding your local clothiers is the ideal choice when it comes time to add sustainable heirloom garments to your closest. While custom and bespoke suits come with a bit of a higher cost, your cost per wear becomes pennies on the dollar after years of loyal wear. When something is crafted with your personality and character in mind, you’ll find yourself wearing those pieces time and time again.
If you're spending over $500-$1000, you're going to be getting 100% wool, and you're also going to start seeing ‘super' wools – Super 80, Super 100, Super 120, and so on.
There's not a uniform system to these numbers. Every mills ‘supers' are different. In general, a higher number means a tighter yarn and, therefore, a more luxurious drape.
What makes a quality suit material is a question with no single answer. Any material with ‘super' in it will be great quality – so don't pay extra to get a Super 220 instead of a Super 100. They will both be lovely selections.
Yes, your Charcoal, Navy, and the ever infamous Black Tuxedo are simple, no-brainer choices for your daily suiting. There is just no getting around the fact that the popularity of non-traditional suits are on the rise. I don’t see that changing. We’re seeing bold colors, fresh patterns, and unique suit cuts.

The suit has lasted for hundreds of years. There is always the lingering question of whether or not suits are still relevant in today's wardrobe; Chic BoHo Barn Weddings Galore, Blue Jeans and Vests, and dare I even say... Khakis take a priority in today's society.
Turns out though, there are more places than you may even realize where a suit is not only acceptable but appropriate. A well crafted suit can give you access to almost any room, especially if you know wha to wear and when. You will be welcome anywhere, not just black-tie events.
