Do places like Charles Tyrwhitt have black friday sales? Are they worth going to, or would they be chaos? I need to buy a new professional wardrobe in the next month and want to buy suits and shirts from CT. If they have sales, would they be worth the hassle of say, going in early to find what I like and sizes, and then going back in to buy on black friday?
I'm assuming no, and it'd be much more pleasant of an experience to go well before then, take my time, leave my stuff for tailoring peacefully etc- but I'm curious.
1.) CT's best prices are online. 2.) Wait for someone to post some link to a $35 on all non-black-label shirts deal. They happen 1-2x/year. 3.) If you're patient, you shouldn't have to pay more than about $300 for a CT shirt. And before you buy, search for coupons. There is almost always a 15% off coupon somewhere.

Thanks for the info.
I have to buy in person (by mid-November) because I need to get things fitted/like to try things on, but I've been to the shop and the prices in-store are currently the same as the prices online, and staff there told me they will almost certainly be the same price one month from now (ie discounts still on).
I'm wondering whether they have specific black friday sales and whether any further discount in price would be worth the hassle of dealing with black friday sales. Can you comment on that?

I don't remember CT having black Friday deals. They usually have them for some weird month in the spring that you have to find out about on fatwallet.com from someone on a really ultra-inside CT mailing list.
They are always giving out coupons in the FT. Ask a buddy with a subscription. If you're skinny and tall, I would be careful about ordering online. I've found their sleeves too short in the past, and in-house tailoring basically wipes out any deal you may get.
CT's $39.50 with tie is going on right now. Shipping is free I believe, and you can use those coupon codes others were talking about.

CT suits are pretty good, though the pants will wear out quickly when using twice a week.

when buying a suit do you think its necessary to get the vest?
If you work in the US, and you are an analyst, and you don't own the company, PLEASE DON'T WEAR A VEST*.
*:You can get away with a sweater-vest if you are a quant- if you have a STEM graduate degree and your job requires a STEM graduate degree. The sweater-vest makes you look like a professor, not Uncle Pennybags or a train conductor. A suit vest just looks ridiculous on a 22-year-old.
What about down vests on casual Fridays? I've been interviewed by people wearing them and I have one similar to this: http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1001815&vid=1&pid=6…
Is that fine to wear on casual fridays over a shirt and tie (no jacket)?
