    Debenhams seemed to have reasonable ones when I last looked. Decent range too.

    Always always get a dark and traditional suit. Good for weddings, funerals and job interviews and never go out of fashion, unlike those fugly almost-collarless suits that people wear these days.

    Ya it was a special offer because it was missing a button or something it was the nicest suit i ever saw ah memories..................It retailed at 700

    I found the Gentleman's Quarters decent for "cheap" suits. Cheap as in 250-350.

    Micheal Guiney's do suits for 50 quid or so I've heard. Personally I don't know, I don't shop for suits there...

    I got a nice suit in Con Murphy's on Patrick St recently for EUR 330. Good value and the service and advice there was excellent.

    another vote here for Con Murphys. Got a suit in there a few years ago... back when I thought I'd never have any use for a suit :D

    I got mine in Gentlemens Quarters. The service was really good, paid 350 i think. Its weird because before i got it i never needed it and now that i have it its being used all the time.

    Yes I think they do the Navy Uniforms, which would be a a positive endorsement
