Nice find!
WritingActress
I can ALWAYS appreciate an amazing Goodwill find.
BrownskinOriental
Envy the find...coming from a guy scraping to find good suits on sale between $100-$200.
Extrava
Once I found a (probably fake) slate blue 3 piece Christian Dior suit at Goodwill. Should have bought it.
Zootsoot
That is AMAZING! Nothing more satisfying than a great quality thrift find, huh? I LOVE IT!!
getrag
Looks good. Shoulders fit, maybe take a little in on the waist.
TallCan
Fellow thrifter I salute you
cleavergrill
Excellent find!
RyanMcFlyin
this is fucking awesome!
Sexlexic
OP feel free to button whichever button you want and wear it however you want! Be free to be different!
DadBodPorVida
How refreshing to hear. +1
kkneat
Well now I'm really jealous
Canofminus
I use to find the best leather jackets at thrift stores.
Ibelieveintacobell
Goodwill finds are the best finds!
cgiovanni15
I approve lol I love those findings when i go there
TheFriendlyPineapple
So...you could say you were Goodwill Hunting?
DadBodPorVida
Oh snap!
QuincyEndicott
Very nice suit but badly needs tailoring. Will look fucking dope with work from a good tailor.
bluetractor
Now that is a super find! I will echo the other commenters, if you get that tailored it will be fab on you!
GoodGameYoungLad
2 Ralph Lauren suits at goodwill?? Wtf are they haunted by the ghost of a homicidal accountant
DadBodPorVida
Some were much nicer than the ones i got but i couldnt fit my dad bod in the pants
DadBodPorVida
These are just the ones with correct shoulders for me! I went to four stores hunting and i found dozens of high end suits...DOZENS!
GoodGameYoungLad
Shit I been doing it all wrong fuck the mall I'm going goodwill suit hunting
NoVoteForYou
Upvote for not being a total selfie. Also the suits pretty great.
DadBodPorVida
That means a lot, especially considering your username. So, thanks!
iMaySayWhatever
Button top button not bottom.
Mylovelyladylumps
DadBodPorVida
This made me laugh. Kinda having a rough day so thanks for that. +1

Protip: @OP is actually Sean Spicer. Even without tailoring, still looks good. Better than a lot of guys in the office.
DadBodPorVida
Aw thanks!
TheHornedKing
I agree. for a special occasion, a really well-fitted suit looks great, but I like my daily suit a little bit looser.
punnyAF
Get these changes: shorter jacket length, no "break" in pants. Also,don't ever button bottom button. Only top button should be buttoned
razmann
then why the hell is there a bottom button?
punnyAF
Why in the hell do men have nipples??? ... well guess what? Men aren't supposed to button those either
IGiveAmazingAdvice
Seriously, listen to this! Also, get a tie clip. Shouldn't set you back more than $25 and they look super classy.
Sexlexic
This is why I fucking hate suits, so many damn rules and adjustments. If it werent for societal norms I'd be in a t shirt and jeans
DadBodPorVida
I knew there was a button rule, its just been so long since i wore a suit i couldnt remember.
acertainjenesaisquoi
Bottom: never. Top: always*. Middle: sometimes, personal choice. *unless you're sitting down, then it can be undone.
JasperSirGalahad
I've never understood why. Sitting down yes unbutton or it all bunches up and you look like a child, but standing, why not button it?
acertainjenesaisquoi
It's a traditional thing from one of the King George's who was so fat he couldn't button it up. It became the style from that.
JasperSirGalahad
So they're just designed that way now I guess. It irritates the hell out of my engineer's mind.
88mphDelorean
Now spend $100 at a tailor to have them perfectly fitted and you'll look like you spent a grand on a custom suit. Great find!
Kidiri
This, or grow a couple of inches.
DadBodPorVida
That ship has long sailed
halfwindsor
It fits across the shoulders so shouldn't need much - sleeves, waist, legs and maybe cut-away. Awesome find @op
DadBodPorVida
Exactly. The shoulders are my main concern when picking a used jacket. Everything else is an easy fix.
lifeisapicnic
Yeah this definitely needs serious tailoring
Oohtmeel
You sound like my mother.
DadBodPorVida
I had literally just got home from goodwill....
Oohtmeel
That idiot sounds like my mom. She said that to me when I got my wedding dress. Like fuck. You think they just magically fit.
Vaenaemoenen
No mercy.
DadBodPorVida
Lol for real. I should have known better and put that i am aware in the original post
lifeisapicnic
if my years on imgur have taught me anything, never post a suit that doesn't fit, or any steak you've cooked. someone will say it's burnt
uberarticuno
Get it fitted (Doesn't need much) and post it again including total cost, amazing buy now but once it's fitted it'd be perfect!
halfwindsor
It'll also wear better if you button the top button and *never* the bottom.
DadBodPorVida
Yeah i knew there was a button rule i just couldnt remember at the time.
halfwindsor
Sometimes (For 3 button), Always, Never :)
VBot
Why is that?
halfwindsor
Almost all suits are designed to accentuate the ideal male figure - that is a V shaped torso. The lapels are designed to meet at the point/1
halfwindsor
That happens. Buttoning the bottom button only caused the top of the coat to sag and the bottom to overlap or lie strangely. /2
halfwindsor
Buttoning both turns the V into a tube shape, making your shoulders look thinner and your waist bigger.
VBot
Ok... sorry, I guess I shouldn't have asked. I'm female, so that doesnt apply to my jackets?
DadBodPorVida
Just for the record...I REALIZE IT HASNT BEEN TAILORED YET I HAD JUST GOT HOME FROM PURCHASING IT
fettuccine
wow which one did u go to!? pm me!
mrweekend
You can probably leave the jacket in the top pic alone, it looks fine
DocSarah
Cool story but please post pictures after tailoring! Its what the people want.
bumhand
As a tailor, please spend the money on someone decent to do the work. I've seen people absolutely butcher clothes who are cheap
DaydrunkSkunk
good thing there's so many "nice guys" on this site so you have ample advice on how to be classy
SonicBoomYourFamily
Hey I'm an asshole, nevering claiming to be nice. I just work in a professional field and see too many men wearing shrink wrapped suits.
pineapplemango
@op Square toe shoes with rubber soles can take away from ur sleek outfit. If u ever want fashion tips with a women's touch, i got u homie
gotwoodhead
As someone with tailored goodwill suits in my closet, thats very forgivable, understand the excitement
DadBodPorVida
Its almost as if i titled it "LOOK AT THESE PERFECTLY FITTING SUITS I FOUND"
gotwoodhead
Itd be more alarming if they fit that well. A body twin somewhere with great taste but terrible clothes disposal methods
DrSkyhammer
get some new shoes while your at it lol
DadBodPorVida
Yeah i know. Those are ancient with dog bites all over. Just put them on for the pic
DrSkyhammer
i'm just playing with you haha those suits are a great find
SonicBoomYourFamily
Tailored, sure. But don't go crazy. Men nowadays like to wear their suits shrink wrapped, like women's suits. Get a conservative cut.
SonicBoomYourFamily
Lol getting downvoted by all these guys wearing suit coats with three quarter length sleeves and high water pants.
CapnJackSparrow
I like a slightly slimmer fit, but I can't stand the crease when it gets buttoned. I just don't get how that looks good
DadBodPorVida
On this one i will probably only shorten the sleeves. The brown one will need much more.
zerofuchs
Pants need work.
mtoso
Hey @op you should probably go get those suits tailored ;)
DadBodPorVida
Wuts tailord meen?
ChipButty
you get a free tail tailored to your suit
madeanaccounttosaythis
lol like every other comment is telling op this as if he wasn't already gonna do it
tinyhooman
From one thrifter to another... those are great finds!
DadBodPorVida
These finds may or may not have sparked an obsession
HodgePodgekin
Looks great! I highly recommend getting it tailored though. (just trolling you - I know it's been said 130x already). =)
bigbootybigfoot
I've bought probably 30 cashmere sweaters, and15 pairs of work jeans. The salvation army is my jam.
tinyhooman
The thrift shop I go to has 1€ days every three months. I've bought new (still with tags) clothes there that originally sold for €€€.
DadBodPorVida
Omg i found a hugo boss suit with tags still on yesterday as well. jacket fit damn near perfectly but the pants...ill never be small enough.
Sooothisonethyme
Only every few months?goodwills around here change their 99 cent tag color every week, and pick another color to be half off. Its like a
Sooothisonethyme
Treasure hunt. Crab catching pot 99 cents last week.
tinyhooman
Only 3 shops here here are run by charities. Most are places where people rent spaces for a week. You can always find a good bargain though.
tinyhooman
One of my best finds was a Burberry wool coat for 25€. Seller marked it down from 120€ to 90€ then to 50€. Found it marked down by 50%.
