Guys where's the best place to get a reasonably priced men's suit? Been looking at Burton's who seem very reasonable but any input much appreciated.
Thanks

I personally would go for some sort of outlet place if you can, it's where pretty much all of mine come from (granted it's near Chester so not much specific use to you).

It's where I got mine from. £70 down from £290. (8+) Mark

M&S
Not cheap but worth it.

Had to look up the word “suit”. I have never owned one - and I plan never to, unless it has the word “space” at the start.

The 'collezione' range of theirs is quite good, don't think all that much of their basic range though. +1 for Debenhams if there's one near you. You'll spend a little more, but get a much nicer suit out of it. Jon

If it is a one off like a court appearance then rent. If for more regular use M&S are pretty good but you could always look at the supermarkets especially if you are a standard size.

Maybe we are going to a funeral hence the need for a suit. Will try Burton's and Moss and there are local shops.

+1 Managed to pick up a Ted Baker suit at a very good price, was going to get an Aquascutum as it was only a little bit more than the £200 on the TB one but it was a little too short on the sleeve and felt a little too formal and heavy for a basic 2 season suit
