Suggestions on alterations? I know the shoulder pads are too bulky as is imo. Dont even look at the shoes. I forgot to get my good pair back from my roommate, so i had to settle for those.

I'm not sure if it's just because you have your hand in your pocket but the shoulders look a size big on those.
Also, don't button the top button, it might look better.

I haven't done any alterations yet. Just copped it and wore it . I like the above the ankle look as well.
RFX, i stated that I need work on the shoulders. you're right.

It's not about it being bulky, if it is a size too big, it'll cost a lot to fix.
First rule in suit buying is to buy it as perfect to shoulder as possible because a tailor has a bigger chance of messing it up by altering shoulders than making it right and it cost a grip.

^^ Too me that just looks like his pants are too long.
I still haven't created a good outfit to wear with my db's, though.

youngchris what type of jeans are those?
I own one BB slim fit shirt and it's like a regular cut shirt. I might have to try out the extra slim fit next time I get a chance.

Dont take this the wrong way (too many damn sensitive people on the internet these days so i start almost all my feedback by apologising
1. the hard 3 button cut is dated ... like something from the 80s
2. those shoulder pads are pretty bad
3. your buttoning point is too high, which is something that can never be fixed
4. your sleeves are too tight and therefore rippling.
maybe after 100-150 bucks and a REALLY good tailor, you could get it fitting decent. i'd give it away or sell it and use that money + the alterations money to find something that fits better off the rack. also it would help to understand what is a "good fitting" suit, so you have a good basis to start searching from.

I'm going to agree here. The moment I saw it was a 3 button suit I just went
