Most places carry one or two pairs of size 13 in each size run they order, thats what size I wear, actually a 13.5 but I cram my foot in lol... anything above that go to a big a tall store

but my favourite store is http://gotstylemenswear.com/ check it out

if price is an issue then try any moores location and take it to a tailor

Get it!
 

RedFlagDeals.com--->search for threads by a user named PennyArcade. My experience only goes as far as reading his "Ask me AA about..." post but you can just directly drop by IM-Label downtown. He's affiliated with them and seems like the guy that can help you out. There is also a blog and more information then you need,but he knows what finance guys need. I'm planning on getting a MTM suit from them as soon as hear back from him with regard to a couple questions I had.

EDIT:

Actually, I'll just post the link here:

PennyArcade and his buddies own IM-label. I checked out their shop and have spoken with them. They seem to make good stuff and know what they're doing.

I get my suits and shirts at Garrison Bespoke. It's a bit more expensive but their stuff if fully bespoke.

The big question is "what is your budget?"

I go for fully bespoke becuase I find it hard to get even MTM suits to fit me properly since they are all based on a standard pattern that then adjusted you your measurements. I have a broad chest and shoulders and narrow waist so my problem is that stuff that fits me across my shoulders is really loose and baggy around my waist.

As for shoes, Allen Edmond stuff is always popular and they have numerous places that sell their shoes. Again, it comes down to how much you want to spend. I have a few pairs of Edward Greens but they're pretty expensive.

The main thing is finding a good tailor you can measure you properly and get the wso/">suit to fit correctly. How much you spend on the wso/">suit doesn't really matter if it fits you poorly. I've seen guys in $6,000 Canalis that look horrible and guys in $300 suits they got from Winners that look amazing.

Budget is not an issue as I view this an an investment more than anything.I have a 2 suits but they are not high quality, I would like to add 2 more high quality suits to my wardrobe.As far as tailor I am not sure where to find as I am new to the city. Where can I find AE shoes in town?
