[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] 2k+: Armani, avoid the dept stores, go to the real store [/ QUOTE ] That's just a bad choice. [/ QUOTE ] You hate nice Italian suits? [/ QUOTE ] I like hand-tailored Italian suits. Armani doesn't fit that categorization. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, cause a custom tailored suit is really something the OP is looking for. In what universe does the kid asking where to buy a suit end up at a custom tailor in Italy? [/ QUOTE ] Reading comprehension. Did I write custom? [/ QUOTE ] If that was not your meaning, I fail to understand your point. Are you asserting that black label armani is machine tailored? Have any source for your assertion? [/ QUOTE ] You can call a store. There are 3-4 hand tailored labels available easily.

When I said black label I was making it clear that I was referring to the suits sold in the actual armani stores, not in outlets and department stores which are white label / collezioni. I believe you are correct about the white label but incorrect about the black label.

I would be very surprised if Black Label were entirely handmade. Further, in all likelihood, the actual suit construction is outsourced to a company like Isaia. There is a difference between a tailoring shop and a design shop.

Re: Where to get a good suit?
I guess I'll set my budget at $500. I'd prefer to get it here and not in Italy because I don't know how much time I'll have.
So, Men's Wearhouse is where I should start? I want it tailored. Do they have good shirts and ties too?

Re: Where to get a good suit?
[ QUOTE ]
think about it. the roundtrip airfare is probably $300. You can stay at the Commerce and earn your suit. Kambiz will hook you up the suit for you, for cheap, $300-400 for some sweet threads. I think he steals the [censored]. so basically if you go to Nordstrom's you're gonna fork out minimum $1300 for a decent suit. Trust me you don't want to be cheap when you buy a suit. [/ QUOTE ] Is this true? Would I be able to get 2 suits for around $1k? My one suit that I have owned the past few years is getting on in age and I need to buy a couple new ones. This price sounds too good to be true for a custom, but I live fairly close and would like to check it out. DN
