Depends on the location and job you have. Off the rack does not work for me, check out Tom James.

I'm rapidly running out of future events that I would consider wearing dress clothes for.
I've never even owned a suit. |

I plan on not having to interview for another teaching or coaching job.
But, I do have two or three suits and plenty of ties in case I do have to. |

Weddings and funerals.
I used to wear a suit for work. Switched jobs and went business casual. Now I work from home and work in boxers.

All three of my cotton robes are at the cleaners, so I'm rocking my newest grass skirt. Some of the stalks are still sort of greenish!

What constitutes a "plain sport coat?"
Are you looking for checkered or a plaid of some sort? |

LOL, boots, jeans and Ts, from 0500 to 2200, every day. Last wedding I went to, stopped at Walmart on way, bought a dress shirt and better pants. |

Aside from my jeans, a lot of my clothes come from Academy. But if I want some nice clothes, it's Nordstrom's.
You'll pay more than you will at Macy's or Dillard's, but I find the quality higher. YMMV. |

Just go to any mall or retail store. The amount of pajama pants and Crocs should tell you all you need to know about modern men's fashion.

I live in Wisconsin, where the normal dress code for anything including weddings and funerals is your least faded pair of jeans and your best Harley Davidson button down or T Shirt.
In lieu of the HD gear, Mossy Oak anything is acceptable. I dress appropriately. Its my code. I always have 2 tailored suits. I learned it from my Dad, who was a high steel worker, but always made sure he dressed appropriately. Because I have a shed of dignity and show respect. Its amazing how many times I'm told its appreciated that I presented myself accordingly. |

Based on the few weddings and funerals that I have been to lately, wearing a suit or even a jacket is quickly going out of style.
I have a decent suit but haven't worn it in a while since I would be overdressed for almost any function I would attend. I do wear a jacket with slacks on occasion and will add a tie sometimes. |

If you want a suit or sport coat, check out a thrift store. Or Ebay.
When it gets dirty, just throw it away, and buy another. Cheaper than dry cleaning.  |

"Dress clothes" are one of the stupidest fashion holdovers ever conceived. Ties should be made extinct and anyone wearing one should be shamed for being a costumed poofter.
Fuck all of that. |

Jeans, boots, and a buttoned Dickies or Carhartt work shirt for me. I don't like polo shirts either.
