How to Select an Essential Suit

While it's fun to select interesting patterns and styles for your suits, you should have your essential basics covered first.

There are several basic suit characteristics that should be covered before expanding your suit wardrobe.

Let's Get Started

Three Basic Suit Features to Consider...

1. Color: The two most basics suits that every man needs to build a wardrobe are Navy and Charcoal. Before you buy and pinstripe, plaid, or windowpane suit, you must have at least a solid navy and/or a solid charcoal.
2. Fabric: The fabric should be an all season wool.
3. Fit: It should fit you perfectly. Make sure the shoulders hit you where your shoulders are.

Timeless.

This is your go-to-suit that will never go out of style and will get you though job interviews, weddings, and special events so you shouldn't compromise. Make sure to check the following details before making your decision...

The Jacket should have a notch lapel that is somewhere in the 3.00" to 4.00" width range depending on your body type. Larger (wider) men should opt for a larger width while smaller (narrow) men should be in the narrow end of the spectrum. The jacket length should cover your butt, and the pockets should be besom with flaps. Depending on your style preference and body shape, either a single, or double vent will be a great option. Lastly your belly button should be in the middle of your top and bottom jacket buttons. For your trousers, opt for flat front with a blind hem.
