Vintage Suits


"Elegance is defined by style."

- Paul San Olay

Vintage Suits are much more than a work uniform. The modern style suit may be a staple among business men and fashion acolytes alike, but the retro suit however, has a unique cut that really accentuates a persons individual character.

These suits usually consist of 3 pieces: the trousers, jacket, and vest. They can be found in many different colors and patterns, but will traditionally be made up of the same 2 materials.(wool or polyester)

Sharkskin Suits were a staple of the 1960's. These suits have a rare quality to them that many newer suits do not.

1970's style suits were the first suits to use cheap polyester materials. However, you can find many more throw backs in a high quality wool than you can in polyester.

Disco suits went out of style about the same time disco did. They are 1970's suits but should be explored by themselves.

Leisure suits didn't last long at all, but I've written a quick history lesson on them.

Zoot suits were another popular style that didn't quite make it.
