What is your favorite dress shirt? weave and why?
I really can't get over twill or herringbone though I know I should choose something like poplin to wear under a suit jacket especially because I sweat more then average.

Anyone have or heard of this brand of suits? I found there is a local retailer that carries it so I thought I'd check them out this week.

Not sure how prominent that bib actually is? It's under dress/luxury but looks more like a tuxedo shirt. . Or should I just opt for the the regular dress shirt.

Mens Wearhouse Clearance fine for work suits?
Just saw some suits for $100-$200 total with clearance and thought they might be fine for daily wear? Jackets fit my frame off the rack and I almost never needed any tailoring there. Is a 70/30 wool:polyester always bad? It was hard to find many 100% wool suits.

I ordered 6 or 7 suits/jackets total and figure I can return them in 90 days if I don't like them or they don't feel great. It just seemed like a good enough deal to try?

Dress Shirt Ordering Overseas Advice?J
I probably need 5-6 dress shirts in the next month and was wondering if there were any good sites you could order where labor/cost is cheaper? If not, any suggestions? I don't need anything too flashy as I'm mostly going to be a trial lawyer.
Ideally: $175? (~25$-30$ per shirt)
