The Zoot Suit


When looking at the zoot suit you'll find wide lapels, high waists, and baggy trousers are all signatures of the this suit. These suits are predominately worn by the Latino community. Therefore they have always been much more prevalent in the southwest. However, you may see them in big northeastern cities like New York and Philadelphia.

I've always found these suits to be more comical than classy but they do appear to be comfortable. You won't find too many people wearing these suits in the boardroom on any normal day. You may however see a person out on the town wearing one so try not to laugh. I've put some pictures up below for your enjoyment.
