Is it worth buying a suit (possibly for a funeral), or just rent one in a bigger city
Hi,
So I got grandparents that recently hit their 90s, and they are unfortunately starting having problems with dementia, and my grandpa recently had a stroke which worsened bis dementia a lot.
I’m in my early 30s, and I don’t own a suit. I work in IT, so wearing a suit is limited to the CEO, and only on some days he wears one.
So I don’t own a suit myself. I probably need one sooner or later for the funerals of my grandparents. I obviously hope they life forever but I’m being just realistic here.
I was wondering if I should just rent one instead because suits for funeral are usually just for funerals if I’m not mistaken.
What’s the break even point between renting and buying a suit?
The grandparents on my father’s side are already dead.

Can you put Uniqlo‘s supima cotton t-shirts into a dryer
I‘m well aware it says no on the tag but I’m wondering how bad the shrinkage is. Because I’m somewhat between an M and an L..
So if the Ls slightly shrinks without deforming it might fit slightly better than before.
Has anyone (accidentally) tried it?
Edit: I’m not sure if nobody has asked that question before or if the Discord search is just that bad.

Bought a few items from Uniqlo, and I require a fit check 3/3
Some general stuff and loads of basic t-shirts
This is the last one where I have some general questions, and no new pictures.
Another gallery: https://imgbox.com/g/QIzoJ9KHhR, and here are the direct links:
* https://images2.imgbox.com/83/b5/bNHwap3A_o.jpeg (with all the Uniqlo chino pants I had some problems closing this second button. Is this normal? I must just lack some finger dexterity because otherwise the waist size 34 seems fine)
* https://images2.imgbox.com/58/10/XsGNbpdY_o.jpeg (This Oshi no Ko print unfortunately looks terribly I didn't even bother unboxing it, and trying it on)
* https://images2.imgbox.com/13/05/WfGhfcij_o.jpeg (Here are the boatload of basic t-shirts I mentioned earlier)
What do you think of the colors? Are there any I should return? I bought multiples, of, e.g., the white one.)
My questions
1. Should I keep the Uniqlo chino pants over the Jack & Jones, and Tom Tailor ones?
2. Especially if you don't watch anime, what do you think about the t-shirts with a print? Can I go out with (some of) those or should I return them all?
3. Should I keep all those t-shirts or return some?
4. Should I keep all those linen shirts (53% linen & 47% cotton) or return some?
Thanks for making it so far, this is thread 3/3.

Purchased items
Uniqlo Dark Gray Slim Fit Chinos 34/34
The following pictures include just clothes from Uniqlo. It's always the same chino, just in a different color. The top t-shirt is different though. I wondering about the sizing of the pants as well, I have pretty much every chino pant in waist size bigger and smaller, and length wise too. So that's why I ended buying so many pants.
Another gallery with all the pictures: https://imgbox.com/g/V9GHOEtsjQ, and here are the direct ones:

I feel like the Uniqlo 34/34 chinos are fitting bettter than the P&C ones, what do you think? I got two more colors & shirts.

Despite the chino color, one major difference is the shirt. It's a linen shirt (53% linen & 47% cotton) from Zara. What do you think about it? Even the arm length fits me, although I probably keep it up because it's a sommer shirt.

Bought a few items from P&C & Uniqlo, and I require a fit check 1/3
Hi,
I'm trying to replace my old wardrobe as some articles are already getting those tiny holes from overuse.
About myself: I'm male, recently reached my thirties, and work in IT, and thereforce I suck at taking selfies.
Purchased items
Jack & Jones Slim Fit 34/34
I created a gallery here with all the pictures: https://imgbox.com/g/v0UZdw7u8I, and here are the direct ones as well:
* https://images2.imgbox.com/97/4d/RUFI9VXP_o.jpeg
* https://images2.imgbox.com/d2/a4/dB5pKvJX_o.jpeg
* https://images2.imgbox.com/4b/1f/XZ0y0Y3e_o.jpeg (sorry it's blurry)
* https://images2.imgbox.com/1c/cd/0e1nD1zK_o.jpeg (I took a better one without wearing it)
* https://images2.imgbox.com/bf/b5/xnrUJoBA_o.jpeg
* https://images2.imgbox.com/bc/92/5A8oobEh_o.jpeg (really tight)
My main problem is with the pants. I'm not sure if you can tell from the pictures, but the calf feels extremely tight, and I'm pretty thin, especially my legs. It almost feels like I'm wearing leggings, not that I have yet. I apologize about the ass shots. I promise they keep getting less in future galleries. The waist is completely fine though.
Tom Tailor Slim Chino 34/34
Here's another gallery with all the pictures: https://imgbox.com/g/eeqPyrhVtJ, and here are the direct ones:

* https://images2.imgbox.com/57/34/0HsojwYS_o.jpeg
* https://images2.imgbox.com/c7/d6/lSJQfOQk_o.jpeg
Those pants feel too tight as well at the calfs but slightly less than the Jack & Jones ones. The belt was actually included, that's a minor plus. The waist is completely fine though.
I believe the pants fits aren't very good, and I bought some additional ones from Uniqlo. Even my photo game improved.
