This has to be the cheapest price I have ever seen for a suit online. Tesco are giving a 20% off code on all items storewide and that coincides with the current free delivery to Australia promo too.

Mostly larger sizes available for the $37 suit, but for the black striped suit jacket and trousers, - http://www.clothingattesco.com/f+f/f+f-black-striped-regular…, plenty of availbility in most sizes for just $55 delivered.

These are polyester but for the price its well worth a punt I reckon.

    Great! Mine came to $24 aud. worth at shot at that price. Thanks OP.

    100% polyester? BAHAHAHAHAHA. Good luck with that. Would you wear a 100% polyester shirt? Nup. Especially in humid australia. And shiny suits suck.
    It's not worth it. Just because it's cheap doesn't make it a worthwhile purchase.

      Fair enough if you were planning to wear this everyday for an office job, but for the odd wedding or funeral etc, it'll do just fine.

        I agree. I'm not buying the suit and would never wear something like this to work but for those who only wear a suit every 1-2 years and not too concerned with the quality or comfort this could be a handy item to keep in your wardrobe. You can't buy suits at Lowes for this price!

        a 100% polyester suit?
        they shouldnt even exist.. surely, if youre going to a wedding you can fork out a little bit of money and buy something a bit better. wearing this would just be offensive to the bride + groom.

    • kiwipride on 02/12/2012 - 08:35

        Yes. Well, Auckland is 68% and Christchurch is 41% humidity right now - that's humid.

      Would you wear a 100% polyester shirt?

      I have a few of them. Polyester is great for sports and travel wear. e.g. cycling jersey, swim rashy.
      Polyester does not get soggy when wet, the way cotton does. Its also quick-dry. Perfect for backpacking in SE asia, or bushwalking.
      Cotton is a poor choice for active-wear. Wool is what the explorers used before synthetcis were invented.

      OTOH, I'd much prefer a wool-rich blend for a suit, and cotton blend for a regular shirt.

          Ah well, doesn't matter what we say milkguru. All this thread has taught me is that some people are so far removed from reality re: looking presentable that it doesn't matter what we say.

    Polyester = nasty

    There is a reason they make fun of the polyester suits of the 70's and 80's and is not just the fashion.

    If this is all you have to spend but a wooll suit from an op shop

    • robotdad on 02/12/2012 - 13:29

      Polyester wears better (and does not cause skin reactions like wool does for me) -it is lighter, drys quicker, doesn't crease as easily, and in some cases is easier to remove stains from. You can also hand-wash some polyester suits.

      By the way they also have some wool suits at tesco which are cheap too.

      As people above have said it depends on your needs… I needed a suit for dinner on a cruise and bought one from M&S last year for approx 28 pounds delivered … quality was far better than expected and I used it for the cruise and then put it away and have not used it since.

        "Depends on your needs".

        Down vote me all you like. All I'm going to say is that if you wear this to work or a wedding you deserve to be judged. It is a poor fitting, poorly constructed $37 suit.

        It doesn't cost too much more to wear something acceptable.

        Don't try and ozbargain on all aspects of your life….

          We may not all be as well off as yourself you know. I'm sure if I had the money, I too would prefer to buy a $250 suit. If you wish to judge those on that basis, then go ahead, a little harsh though if you ask me.

          There's the suit I bought from Asda maybe 4 years ago now. That's what it looks like on.

          I think it just looks like a suit, personally. There's nothing negative I can say about it except I maybe got the pants too big - which was my fault.

          No styling issues at all - it's no Hugo Boss $500 monstrosity, but it's a smart suit for special occasions. |It will last me as long as any other named-brand suit you care to mention.

          As offensive as it is, it's true. If you rock up to a professional job in a $30 suit, people are not going to take you seriously. It also screams that you have probably never worn a suit before, which is as good as saying you have no experience in any job you would be required to wear a suit for in the first place.

          Always spend a bit extra on a suit because it is a 10 years + purchase.

    A cheap suit looks worse than no suit IMHO. might be OK if you intend to trash it for a fancy dress party or something, that's about it.

    • jace88 on 02/12/2012 - 14:55

      Agreed. A suit is a bit different to the typical stuff we see on OzBargain (namely computer parts and freebies) in terms of whether or not it works well for an individual. Whilst I typically tell people that a suit is really only as good as the tailor who makes it fit- I greatly suspect this $37 suit will look a lot like other <$100 suits I've seen over the years which just scream cheap a mile away. Better off saving a bit more, getting something from say Man 2 Man and then getting it tailored to fit well. The only good thing I can think of using a $37 suit for would be either a high school formal, for a joke/skit (involving cheap suits), or to attend an event where you need to wear a suit but are expecting there to be significant spillage of food/liquor.

      That being said, $37 is still ridiculously cheap for a suit.

      A poor quality suit stands out. Polyester is shiny, it simply looks cheap. Cheap suits typically have less stitching and structure which means they don't flatter and highlight the shape of your body.

    A decent price. But you can get proper wool suits cheaper 2nd hand from op shops, it's a gold mine. Not negging, but I'd prefer a cleaned 2nd hand wool suit to something like this. And with op shops you can try it on for size, which is important with a suit.

    • Noblejoker on 03/12/2012 - 12:11

      Not all of us are regulation sizes though
      I am tall broad and thin-ish
      Others are larger etc
      Can't buy off the rack at Op Shop - or Tesco for that matter
      And I guess that is one downside of this internet buy
      At least at Op Shop you can try it on and check if the hems can be let down etc
      Frankly though I gave up looking in op shops for clothes, could never find anything

  • abh_gup on 03/12/2012 - 01:42
