I just spend 400$ at BrooksBrothers.com

[LS20]

3 on discount with 3-for-190$ offer, 2 normal priced, 1 on clearance, and with free shipping

i dont usually spend this much money on clothing, but after discovering 2 more ruined express 1mx shirt tonight while ironing (that makes it the 5th one so far), why not buy some clothing that'll last a few years?


well, the only reservation is the fit. if these dont work out, im going for the 60$ custom-tailored-in-thailand websites......

i like the wrinkle free brooks brothers shirts but I find they tend to run a bit large, and the styling is a bit too conservative for me.

Last time I was in Thailand I got a bunch of shirts tailored, they are awesome. If you are going to spend any money, i suggest going to India or Thailand to get your clothes tailored. It's cheap and the materials are the best. You can get fully tailored cashmere suits for like $200, shirts are around $45.

many places will do big packages like $1500 and you get two suits, 10 shirts, 4 pants, a sports coat and a long coat. all tailored to fit you exactly.

you could have a trip to thailand or india and still save money after buying all those clothes

 

[FilmCamera]

Uhm....wow what a waste of money.

Unless I'm earning good money, I think my max on a dress shirt is $35. Ok maybe $50.

im built like a greek god... who went on a diet, so im concerned about getting the BB Slims to fit well (hence buying Express in the first place)

I just need shirts for everyday wear...and not planning to travel to these places soon. My reservation with these USA-based websites are that, if i dont like them, i cant simply ship them back to BB or Amex like i can in above instance...

When I was in India, I bought 2 dress shirts, 2 slacks, 2 pairs of dress socks, two pairs of boxers, and a belt for around $20 american dollars.

that was my max,too
but buying a new 35$ shirt every month when the cheap one gets ruined adds up...

No sh!t... I did the same.

And if you go to Thailand and plan on cruising the shops, learn how to say "no" in Thai before you go. You will find it very useful when the mob of kids get to you.

How was the "happy ending"? :lips:

On a serious note, how long, how much and what kind of massage?

you got ripped off.

i know i know, i'm gonna get asked "where do you shop." i'm a college student so $20 is my max for a dress shirt

anyway, if you know where to look, you'll get some real good quality custom-tailered stuff in china and iran, from what i know. idk about the sports coat and long coat, but you should be able to get that stuff for half the price

I got foot massages almost everyday which basically massage your legs and feet for an hour. an hour is only $6 and I usually just paid $10 total which was for the tip and the fact that the girl doing the massage was hot as hell.

definitely there are cheaper places to get clothes tailored. India is very inexpensive as i said but I was in Thailand and I needed some shirts, tailored shirts of high quality material and excellent craftsmanship are not available in all countries.

Brooks Brothers = Big Pimping

Yeah those mofo's are not pricey they are down right expensive. But it's said to be quality clothing.

 

[ThePresence]

Little known secret: You do not have to go to Thailand!
You can go to Montreal and get similiar prices to India or Thailand on custom tailoring. Not only that, but they use quality, brand name fabric. I have done this, no regrets.
Also, some of the good Thai tailors come to America about once every couple of years. They schedule stops in major US cities. You can call, make an appt. and get measured up. They'll send you your clothing within a month. I have actually done this as well.
