Not the new TV series that has just started, although I watched the first episode tonight and it's veeeery good!

Where do you guys go to buy suits?  I've been all over, Burtons, Top Man, Next, M&S, but can't find anything that fits well.  Jackets aren't too bad, but the trousers are either too big/small on the weight (I'm a 37" apparently!), or the legs are too tight.

Find your local Asian community, find the Tailors, have suite made to your own spec, and will probably cost considerably less than an off the peg M&S or Next item...

i had the same problem last year... ended up buying one from debenhams if i remember correctly... jeff banks one... and very nice it is too... more value for money in a suit than anything else I looked at... and i looked at a LOT of suits!!

worth a gander as they have a sale on at the moment
