Poll of the Day > Fitted clothes? Where do guys buy them?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Ok, this may seem weird, but I have not needed to buy new clothes in along time. I still have plenty of professional clothes from when I would go to court etc, but that was from almost 10 years ago now, and the clothes don't fit as well. I wore more casual clothing when teaching as well (needed to be able to move around fast).

Tomorrow I have a big interview and I was thinking of buying some new clothes so I can look as good as possible. I was/am planning on just hitting JC Penny or something (that is the only one I see that is opened today since it's Easter), but you can't really get fitted clothes there.

I'm still in fairly decent shape, but have a bit of a tummy and so just buying generic pants might not be the best. I have never had clothes fitted for me etc, or gone to a store that does that (searched online but only saw info on how to get clothes you already owned fitted etc).

So, does anyone on here get clothes that are tailored to you? I'm not just talking about suits either, but like professional pants/shirts etc (For work). I can go with what I have already, or buy some at the store (Although usually the legs are too long as I have a Micheal phelphs long torso and short leg syndrom going on), but wouldn't mind spending a bit extra to get something that would make me look better.

Any advice/info would be appreciated!:)

You can buy clothes that are a little bit bigger and get them tailored, rather than buying them too tight.

have to be really lucky to get clothes off the rack that are "tailored" to you... you know what you can do is get them tailored

The closest you'll find off the rack are things like shirts that are made for specific neck/chest sizes. Otherwise you'll have to have them tailored at the store or taken to a tailor.

Kohls has fitted shirts. Also try tj Max or Burlington coat factory if they're around you since they sell overstocked items.

Also hit up your local thrift store or Salvation Army. Most of my dress clothes are from there. I got a pretty nice suit for about 20 dollars total

Thanks for the advice all, went to JC but it was closed (Even though it said it was open). Looked like everywhere was closed today pretty much, so I'll just go with my current dress pants I guess. They still look fine.
