Men's Clothing

Keyzer

Looking for some tips on places to buy decent clothes for the man in my life (i.e. me). Transitioning shortly from a job where I wear a suit to a more business casual environment and I'm struggling to find anything to wear.

Just back from a stroll around town and very disappointed with the severe lack of quality men's clothes which don't cost an arm and a leg. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind spending money but not ridiculous money clothes which aren't worth it.

Everything I see online is super skinny which doesn't work for most people imo.

See below for some examples of styles I'm looking for:

Hunchback

Ironic that casual clothes are difficult to buy, but I geddit completely!

Maybe start with a shirt and take it from there.

Tk max. You might get lucky with a few bits

Marks for trousers and shoes

Woodward

Zara is pretty good

What’s your budget? Ted Baker and/or Reiss do great smart casual.

Nightmare of a shop. Who wants to root through hundreds of items on the off chance of finding something decent?

Use ctshirts for my shirts they normally have good offers on.

OP will go in looking for casual clothes but likely will come out with a frying pan and a set of pillows.

Love the treasure hunt element of it

Shaws' department store is decent if you're in the Southeast OP

Thread.com is worth a look.

You basically stick in your measurements and indicate a few styles which you like. They then assign you a ''stylist'' who makes suggestions.

This looks promising. Thanks for all the tips guys.

My problem is I'm a fussy boll0x. Buying online is a great idea but most of the stuff I order ends up not looking like it did online. Which p1sses me off.

Went on their website, there's quite a number of them dotted around

e.r

Debenhams have a good varied selection.

nthclare

Timberland

quadrifoglio verde

Eton for shirts.
Ok, they're expensive but you feel and look a million dollars in them.
You also get serious wear out of them as the quality is top notch.

BTW - Thread is a great site.

Like the site, how did you work it though in terms of returns? They currently only deliver to UK, which is not a problem as obviously I can use DPD Parcel Wizard or Address Pal. However the whole set-up is about ordering different sizes, colours etc. and sending back what you don't need before you pay for anything.

How did you return items and how does that work out cost-wise?
