FAQs

What is the average price of a decent suit? ›

The standard suit: $501–$1,000

Most men will be comfortable in this price category as the value for money seems to offer a good balance.

Cheap Suit: In contrast, cheap suits often use lower-grade materials, synthetic blends, or polyester. These materials may lack the same level of comfort, breathability, and durability as their expensive counterparts. As a result, cheap suits may not provide the same level of comfort and may not last as long.

Off-the-rack suits typically range from $200 to $800 (€185 to €740), while made-to-measure suits generally cost between $400 and $1500 (€370 to €1400).

How much should you spend on a decent suit? Experts recommend spending around $500 for a quality suit. The $500 range will give you everything you need in a basic suit: quality stitching, nice fabric, and neutral, versatile colors.

As a general guide, lighter suits are most complimentary for people with medium and darker skin tones. Likewise, a deep and dark-coloured suit looks most complimentary on fairer skin. You can also consider and work with your skin's natural undertones.

Knitwear: Knits are a key piece in our Autumn and winter wardrobe. Crew neck sweaters, half-zip knits and V-neck jumpers are all excellent alternatives to a suit blazer. Their formal style pairs well with a long-sleeve shirt and chinos. If it is colder outside, they can also be layered under a sports or casual jacket.

The average lifespan of a good bespoke suit should last for 5 – 10 years. This also depends on the frequency of wear. The number above is based on a weekly wear. We also recommend that you should wear a specific Suit once a week and have a rotation of 5 Suits within that week.

What makes a suit more expensive? ›

The most expensive suits are made from Vicuna or Mohair. These two fabrics alone are easily the most expensive - with Vicuna edging out over Mohair. There are other expensive suit fabrics, such as Cashmere, linen, etc. but Vicuna and Mohair are exceptionally expensive.

A made to measure suit can cost anywhere between £400 to £3500 in London depending on choice of cloth, construction quality, tailors markup, tailors overhead and their factory prices.

500 bucks isn't nothing, but compared to alternatives in the same price range, it felt like so much suit—the beautiful Italian fabric, the spot-on cut, the endless versatility—for so little money. So long as there's even the faintest hint of chill in the air, I'll be looking for reasons to wear it into the ground.

You can pair these suits with different shirts to create a variety of looks for various occasions. The experts at President Tailors recommend every man to own five suits. Opting for classic suit colors like black, navy, gray, brown, and tan is a smart choice.

It depends. Like we discussed earlier, there are many factors that go into deciding whether $300 is a good value or not. If there are defects or the suit doesn't fit, it is not a good price. If the suit fits and you are happy with the fabric, it would be worth it.

It really depends on your budget, and how often/hard you're going to wear your suit. If you're looking for a workhorse suit that you can rely on 2-3 times/week, a $200 RTW number will not last. You'll end up buying a new one every six months.
