Buying a suit is hard on the newly formed professional. The reason for this is because many people do not know how to buy a professional wardrobe on a not so professional bank account.

Throughout my years I have bought and sold many suits. The knowledge I acquired doing this will help even the most frugal purchasers make a sound purchase.

Option one is to buy previously owned clothes at a considerable discount. You can find these suits at local thrift stores, estate sales, yard sales, and even consignment shops. Another option is to go online and check out some of the auction sites such as ebay.

Used clothing is economical and my number one choice for saving money. Having said this I do realize that not everyone is comfortable wearing clothes that have previously been worn. Also another drawback is the lack of a return policy on many used purchases.

Another option is to buy a few high quality under marketed suits and combine them with lesser known accessories. Some suits to consider are Pronto Uomo, Perry Ellis, Sean John, Steve Harvey, and Mantoni. These suits can all be found for less than $500 at many different online retailers.

Disadvantages to this method include: limited funds for accessories, limited number of suits, and the lack of a diverse lineup. This can be tough for any man that has to wear suits everyday for work. You will need to go to the dry cleaner more often and will have to be careful not to let your suit get damaged.

The Final option is to buy department suit quality suits in bulk. Many of these types of suits can be bought at prices of $400 for two full suits. This option is great for the buyer that must wear suits on a daily basis.

However, this option allow you to buy more expensive shirts, ties, and shoes to really make you stand out. You will also be able to diversify your wardrobe more by mixing and matching your suit pants and jackets on casual fridays.

I hope these three options give you a better idea of how to buy a suit with limited funds. Always remember to decide on an option before going out and making any purchases.
