Men's Wearhouse: Are suits with three pockets going to be in style for fall 2009?

My experience with the Mens Warehouse has been horrendous. I am not knocking their suit quality but its their salespeople and tailors that have been the most insulting to me. And no folks, i'm not moaning about one store. I have been to 3 in the Chicago area and thier service is pitiful.

@nomobties The best tailor I've ever dealt with was at a Brooks Brothers store (no surprise). But I'm occasionally willing to put up with the iffy service at Men's Wearhouse if I can get an Italian suit on sale for $200. With an additional $30 in tailoring, it comes darn close to a custom-fitted suit for a lot less money.

@northwestmike I'll tell you what happened. I'm a hard to get 46 portly short. I know what I am talking about. The tailor left me alone for a few sec. when i told him I wanted to look. Seconds later he takes me to 48 regs. I try the jacket on being while really pissed at the process. Oh yea, its a breeze for him to adjust the shoulders and skirting. Another time, another day I went in wanting an Italian look. the salesperson said, we'll just close the vents on a center vent jacket. Wtf?

it is a Ticket pocket. It is timeless. It has nothing to do with trends or style. There have always been Ticket pockets.

@paolom3 Cool, yeah, I ended up buying this suit because I liked the style and color so much. It's a gorgeous grey/silver suit with a metallic sheen.

i personally like the middle one that was on the table, and the second one that you tried on by the mirrors

@WestCoastBeards Thanks, I picked that one up. I haven't been to a Men's Wearhouse in a while. They had some nice suits and then for about $30 they do a little extra tailoring for a nice fit.
