 Why did I think you were talking about Riverhead outlets the whole time ?? 

Thanks for the drop, just caught my pair shipped for $129.00 as well.  Perfect purchase to start the day!

Where to look for soft, good fitting undershirts? I used to stock up on those Banana Republic "fitted vee" but its getting too expensive for undershirts. Any suggestions?

Basically.  Pants could've been tapered and the suit could've been taken in just a tad.

Where you fat before?  Looks like a suit someone would rock after they lost some weight.

been slim all my life, probably bought the suit too big. Had if for a few years, during the not so "dressing better" era for for me. Thanks for your input

On some "NBA players who is injured and is forced to wear a suit" steez... everything is too big.

The best option would be to buy a new suit that fits somewhat decent off the rack and go from there.

The shoes look decent, though.
 
Went to Uniqlo today. About 100,000 others had the same idea. Their suits were

but got a few shirts and such. Guess I'll be headed to JCrew for the Ludlow in khaki or grey.
 
Also, that suit makes you look at least 35 pounds heavier than what you really weigh.

Does anybody have those GQ transformation pictures of average Joes?

I tried on the suits at Uniqlo the other day.  I thought the XS fit pretty well on me...it was a bit long though for my liking.
I went down a block to Topman and found that those suits fit much much much better though.

wasn't as much the fit as it was the fabric and style. didn't look to good to me. i actually fit their clothes pretty well. their medium dress shirts fit me perfect.

It might just be the pic, but the shoulders look way to big.  Everything else a tailor could more than likely fix, but the shoulders are a problem.  I paid about $90 to have one of my suits fully tailored that I bought too big. (pants tapered/hemmed/waist brought in jacket taken in and sleeves shortened).

there looks like there's at least a 2 inch gap between your neck and the collar.
 
Scooped up a CK suit at Burlington Coat Factory, it was cheap so I said +!$# it.  Tan summer suit, jacket was $89 and pants were $40.  Took a gamble, will take it to a tailor to see what damage he can do.

Someone with extensive suit knowledge and time should create a suit guide with price ranges and all that jazz.

I know my sizing and what to look for when buying a suit, but it's still overwhelming at times.
