If you can manage to get to Hong Kong, you can have a bunch of tailor-made suits made for you real cheap.

I wear suits less and less. Do you find more offices are going casual? My clients seem to prefer that I'm not in a suit.
Heh. I fly to China next week, and I'll be coming back with the ususal suitcase filled with Hugo Boss socks, and Calvin Klein underwear. It ****es me off that places like Holt Renfrew charge $25 for dress socks, and I can buy the exact same thing for $0.50 in China. I'm definately going to get a few Armani suits this time....they're so bloody cheap over there if worse comes to worse I can give them to a friend if they don't fit right.

I had a house part a few months ago where all my friends left with Lacoste and polo shirts.....all it cost me was $40 for 20 shirts.
