Express Microdot Slim Fit Suit

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.

One Reminder:  You’ll need to buy the jacket AND the pants.
