The chase for a suit; should I even bother?
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-1940-s-1950-s-Blue-w-Red-Fleck-Sport-Coat-Suit-Jacket/152821921568?hash=item2394e57720:g:ZroAAOSwI8laHOkM This jacket seems nice. Can anyone vouch for the quality? It may just be me, but the material looks a little thin. -
The chase for a suit; should I even bother?
Canadian, your reply has a gut-load of information! I didn't really expect anything of the sort with this thread. Now for my dissection, bottom to top, as I'm on mobile and hate scrolling constantly. 1. The question of where I would wear a vintage suit has been brought up a lot by peers and... -
The chase for a suit; should I even bother?
Nobert, Mathematicus, much appreciated information. In no way do I dislike the idea of thrifting, as I've obtained some cool stuff from thrift shops. But, in the way of clothing that piques my interest, it's been rather bleak. To add, I don't have good means of transportation yet, to reach the... -
The chase for a suit; should I even bother?
The thought of them becoming increasingly rare is bothersome, but, hey, it's the reality with these garments. If only I could get all the ones I see! To what extent can the chest size be reduced, though? Not only is it expensive compared to other operations, but I've heard it's also pretty... -

The chase for a suit; should I even bother?
It's good to hear that slimmer suits are often in better condition for that reason. The uncommon occurrence of finding them, however, is disappointing. I was never proud of my naturally slim figure. Thanks for the advance, Patrick! I'll keep my eye out for that size! -

Just won this suit on Ebay
Always envied people who could score such deals. Great find, and seems to fit well, too! -
Waist covering with 1930's double breasted black tie?
With 1930's DB black tie ensembles, I've often seen a waistcoat commonly worn with it. Appears to just be the lighting. Though, I can sort of see why it can be confused for a brocaded garment. -

Michael, your suits and outfit choices are wonderful. Love the fedora-DB suit combo you've got going in a couple of the photos, good stuff. -
The chase for a suit; should I even bother?
Hello all. I found this forum upon my quest for vintage 1930-50's clothing, as this era of menswear really appeals to me. Fedoras, expressive shoes, swing ties, you name it. Of course, a big part about these decades is the suit. I love the look of 'em. As a 15-year-old boy (Yes, it says 18 on my...
