I had to refresh the suit collection recently...I could've gotten 5 Oxxford suits for, say around $2000 each, but I availed myself to a recent killer JoAB sale and nailed 5 suits for an average $300 or so. I am not putting a bespoke suit jacket in an 'effin plastic bin only to have some Taking Scissors Away throw my shoes on top it

Seated six feet away from a client after being wedged in the AirTran flight MCO to ATL, then grubbing it on the MARTA train to Buckhead (it ain't sexy, but traffic in ATL sux) and following the meeting up with an errant bit of The Palm's salad, potato, or steak on your lap, it really makes no sense to then jump into a taxi cab to Hartsfield International wearing a suit worth more than the taxi.

Plus the JoAB suits are made by orphans in Vietnam and China, so that really helps the kids out.
