Only when I have to... Never had to wear one for work... And because of my build I can't get one off the rack... Dan

I use to a have closet full of suits. French shirts, genuine silk ties(lots and lots of ties). Those, rather girly, lawyer looking loafer shoes. The best socks.
Even had a wool overcoat. Western suits and English. The western have yokes on the front and back. The typical English... Looks like a lawyer.
Boy has times changed. Funny how we revert back to blue jeans and cowboy boots. Then Military combat boots in the pretty tan suede. Kept clean. They're like wearing tennis shoes.

Get one. After I retired from the AF, I purchased two slacks (kaki & grey), dress shirts (fall & winter colors), and two ties. I always wear boots (square or round) and this depends on my mood or purpose. Anyway, I am thinking about getting one nice suite because I may want to make a run for a higher position one day.
Dress for success.

I've got two custom tailored suits I had made in Hong Kong when I was there for work. They still fit after 40 years..:) I've worn them to job interviews even if I didn't have to. Last outing was for my nephews wedding in Wyoming.....everybody who didn't know me thought I was a lawyer or some rich dude...pretty funny. Nephew got a kick out of it...the cowboy boots I was wearing should have given it away...and the pistol hanging off my belt....Yes it was a "requirement" for the male attendee's in the wedding party....the best man thought of it...hey it was Wyoming....:) Wife and my sister just rolled their eyes....:)
I will wear a suit to weddings and funerals as others have said....it is a sign of respect in my opinion.

Suits to appropriate events, no ties. I wear a banded collar shirt or a knit pullover with them. Sport coats fairly often in cool weather.
I’ve bought some good stuff at The Dillards Oulet; Hart, Schaffer and Marx, Ralph Lauren, Dior, etc.
Jos A Banks was very good a few years ago but they are gone, I think.
Good quality and sales. Joseph A. Banks in the DFW Metromess
