The Poor Man's Bespoke

  1. $23K is for the "poor man"? I guess that puts me and my $500 suit in the range of "destitute indigent".

  2. I think this is an example of poor man's sarcasm.

  3. Actually, that $23K figure is just insane. Even the best Savile Row tailors don't charge that kind of money.

  4. Those prices are utterly ridiculous. You're being a suit not a car. With this, we can confirm that Ralph Lauren has gone a bit mad in the head.

  5. i believe made to measure is what is referred to as the poor man's bespoke. since the item doesn't appear to be true bespoke, but yes the price is ridiculous. I think Kiton or Zegna makes a suit in that price range with a weave that includes gold.
