Sharkskin Suits

Sharkskin suits were a staple of the 1960's fashion. These suits have a certain shine to them that makes them much more appealing to vintage suit lovers. The 1980's retro suits are comparable to the amateur, but a die hard can spot the difference right away.

This type of suit has become increasingly hard to get. Almost 50 years is a long time for clothing to hold up well, even if you take care of it. These suits can occasionally be found at estate sales, yard sales, consignment shops, specialty shops, and online retailers. If you happen to find one of these suits at a bargain - buy it immediately.
