Buy wool! Check them out Superflyer.
Excellent, excellent point here. Never, ever buy a suit with more than 5% poly in them (sometimes you'll get some lycra stretch suits or something like that that are cool that have 5% poly). But 100% wool is the way to go - yes, you have to dry clean them but the comfort is so much greater...and the wool suits are nicer, cleaner suits.
