That's why they're on a deep discount, my friend. The uncommon sizes remain. And FYI small and medium would be the most common sizes to sell first. Anything else would be outliers either on the lighter or heavier side.

Hey all, so my tux from Jcrew just came in and I tried it on, yes I know it isn't the greatest suit out there but it was too good a deal for me to pass up. Anyway, any advice on how the suit fits and what alterations I would need to have done as I have absolutely no clue,or if I should just return it and get a different size? Keep in mind I like the slimmer look of a suit.

Fits well in the shoulders but it needs work.

1. Shorten sleeves
2. Suppress mid-section aka get the jacket taken in
3. Hem pants
4. taper maybe not sure

This is such a dope deal. If I didn't have a shacket already I would cop one. Additional half off on the navy.

Thanks dude!

Been looking for a thin quilted jacket for a while. I had to buy at $35 shipped!

you guys got any ideas for some spring/summer rainy day shoes? I have a pair of clark db but thats all i can rock when it rains everything else is suede when it comes to my s/s wear. Everything else I have for bad weather is pretty heavy weight for winter.

How often does it rain where you're at?

Maybe invest in a nice pair of rain boots.

Desert boots are horrible on wet floor, bro. I just use my red wing and Chippewas in the rain.

Spent the day in court. Man, so many Jordans and chopper suits. The only well dressed dude was the DA who had a navy chalk stripe suit with polka dot tie and navy camo socks. Dude had to be at least 50 yrs old but was still killing it

Jury duty? Glad I never got called in. Would wear a hoody and sweatpants with a miserable look on my face.

It doesn't rain too often here which is why I'm unprepared for wet work shoes I got plenty of boat shoes, suede oxford/bucks, and loafers but nothing for the wet weather, but I am looking at moving to seattle in a couple years, me and the gf are going to check out in august to see how we like the city so might not be a bad idea to invest before it's needed.

Baby mama drama. My lawyer took care of it though.

Yep. I used to visit various Superior Courts in CT to take notes for my pre-law courses. First time I showed up in a blue blazer and denim and the clerk looked me up and down like he had never seen such a thing.

This court had us park 3 blocks away

Walking there was on an incline. Walking back was like a 30 degree hike. I loved it, was the pre workout, but others...not so much.


Should've shown up in the jawnz though

Wouldn't want to intimidate anyone

Why do people have to give out tips over there?
Usually, here it's just a fixed price and nobody expects you to leave a tip or ask for a discount.
Lol

This is also another great deal. I also didn't realize I had this in the cart still. May want to hunt for the matching trousers for a suit. I used the promo code shopnow.

I'd order but no pants left.  Called customer service left and apparently none in my size in any retail stores.

If anyone's aware of a 32-33/32, let me know.

Would orphan but eh.

 

[sneakaprince]

****.... I been doing good about staying outta this thread but that camo jacket for the 50 is too good a deal. I was literally just checking on it yesterday

 

[scarsorscabs]

Random but whatever happened to Justin Timberfake, the dude who posted pics of other people & things pretending that it was him?  So strange.

I caved and bought it last night. Too great of a deal to pass up.

They are most likely. The whole SEA is very profitable.

Does JCrew have any stores outside of North America? If not, I imagine they will soon
