Men's Wearhouse: Yay or Nay for suits/sportcoats?

Yes and yes. Very happy with their service, and they seem to have a good selection.

Edit: And it's Men's Wearhouse
 
I bought all my "business-wear attire" from The Men's Warehouse...GOOD quaity stuff, better than fair prices, excellent customer service. MUCH better than any of the local options available here.
 
never shopped there, but i did shop at joseph a bank and got a suit that i absolutely hate (for some reason it looked ok in the store, but out in the real world it's just awful), and it took them more than a week to tailor it (the originally quoted me almost a month). so, next time i'll go across the street to men's wearhouse. if i don't buy the $53 suit at walmart.
 
OK for a first suit, but IMO their styles are not flattering at all. For a more modern cut for around the same price, go to Target and try on the Merona suits.
 
Nay. I wear suits on an almost daily basis and the worst suit I've ever owned was from them. If you looking for an inexpensive suit, I suggest Macy's on sale.
 
I think their stuff is overpriced for what you get and the selection is not all that great. I prefer to pick up suits/sportcoats at Nordstroms or other department stores when they have sales. The department stores have some pretty decent sales if you are willing to wait for a deal.
 
Thanks for the opinions. Unfortunately there aren't any Macy's, Bloomingdale's, or Nordstrom's nearby. Dillard's is about as fancy as it gets around here. So my options are basically them or another local place that seems to be decent.

Could you elaborate on what was bad about it? I don't wear suits often, so I don't really know what to look for. Did it come apart at the seams or something?
 
Ok, but I think the salespeople are on commission because they certainly try to talk you into buying lots of stuff. Make sure you have a definite play of what you need to get and stick to it.

Men's wearhouse, for the man slightly more discriminating than walmart 😀

Definately worth bolding, they're salesmen and will try the hard sell.

It's okay stuff. The only I've seen at target has been synthetic blends and is pretty crappy. its certainly not great and certainly not a steal. if you're on a tight budget its worth a stop, if you have a little more to spend I'd listen to vic and go elsewhere.
 
I hate that place. salesmen were assholes and I felt like I was in a car dealership. I bought a suit and it was poorly tailored as well. department stores (macy's, dillards, nordstrom, etc) ftw
 
Good god that place is crap! They sell crappy suits and sportcoats that are equivalent to JC Penney's. While I understand that if you are a used car salesman and need to wear a suit everyday this is the place for you but if you need a business suit worn occasionaly or one to wear to weddings/funerals I would suggest you look elsewhere.
