The part that no one ever talks about is that a well fitted high quality suit, which is the most ubiquitous professional/ business wear for a man, is just about as comfortable as pajamas. It's like a secret that all men share and don't talk about because if this fact came out widely enough the jig would be up and we might have to dress in something more punishing. Jeans are often more restrictive and uncomfortable than suit pants.
I've never been particularly comfortable wearing a tie.
I enjoy it, but then again I want to hang myself
See this dude? He still has goals in life!
See, my issue is that I’m ambitious in the morning and procrastinate as the day gets later. Hell, I’ll take care of it tomorrow.
More than one fashion writer has declared the tie to be dead. Go on, wear a suit and skip the business noose! Nobody's gonna stop you.
Your shirt collars are too tight. Ideally, a tie shouldn't even be felt by the wearer, they're only decorative
I actually came here to say that. I used to have to wear suits a lot and I kind of miss how comfortable they were compared to most other clothes. The only bad part was that they had to be dry cleaned, which was annoying.
Suit pants are nice, as are the shirts, but the jackets are frankly quite stupid. Plus, you have to take into account the fact that a well-fitted suit is only guaranteed to be well-fitted at the moment it comes from the tailor.
Flipside... no matter how many times the suit-shop owner says otherwise, the classic suit-shoes are fucking torture devices.
As. frankly, are any suit that cost less than a human kidney
If you're not wearing hand made shoes are you even living?
I guess I'm not even living. Payless is more comfy than suit shoes, and more affordable.
