Express Microdot Slim Fit Suit – $195.30
This is the suit for a guy who knows he can pull off something that’s a little more unique than a standard two button notch lapel.
It has just one button on the front of the jacket and sports slim and restrained PEAK lapels. The fabric also breaks the norm with a pattern that’s not a stripe, but instead the sophisticated and highly underrated micro-dot.
It’s on sale for just under $200. And probably somewhat easy to find in your local Express store. It’s slim fit, so if you’re in somewhat-decent shape you might be able to get away with only minor alterations. Have your tailor bring the jacket sleeves up just enough to show a little less than 1/4 inch of shirt cuff when your arms are at your sides. If you’re more athletically built, you’ll need the jacket fully tailored but it should offer a great template.
Again, it’s under $200 and it makes a small, reserved statement. A great pickup if you’re two or three suits into your collection.
Express suits fit me off the rack (except for the long sleeves), this one is no exception. Jacket came to under $120 with an additional coupon, check the site.
Any idea where the pants can be found? The link doesn’t work…
Looks like they’re out. They were on sale back in Mid-December, and they’re rolling out their spring line. This jacket and pants aren’t on sale, but they’re a perfect color for year round wear. Also from Express.
