Looking for the best places to shop for cheap/affordable men’s suits?
This article has got you covered!
The information provided in this article is based on the recommendations from most men who shop for suits on a budget.
We did a survey on the best places to buy suits when on a tight budget and the stores listed in this article were the most recommended by most men.
| NOTE: The location of the store is key. You will find stores listed here that have suits on a budget but their quality depends on the location of the store. Fit is not always 100% guaranteed but you can get a good and affordable off-the-rack suit that fits you or is close enough and then get it tailored to fit you properly. |
I’d also highly recommend going through our previous article on what you need to know before buying a cheap suit!

Best Stores That Sell Cheap/Affordable Men’s Suits
- Men’s Warehouse
Most men in our survey recommended Men’s Warehouse when shopping for suits on a budget.
They gave the following reasons:
- Men’s Warehouse usually has sales from time to time.
- You can get a great well fitting designer suit and suit separates for the best deals.
- They usually have an exponentially larger selection of fittings and suit sizes compared to other stores.
This means that, if you are someone who finds it hard to get a suit that fits you because of your body type, this can be a good place to start.

- Joseph A. Bank
Joseph A. Bank was the second most recommended store for men looking for nice quality suits on a budget.
That’s because they regularly have great sales and their suits are generally budget-friendly.
We have also found a suit for $250 and $500 for a full tuxedo, a tie, and a pair of shoes.
- Macy’s
Macy’s was also recommended by most men when buying a suit on a budget.
That’s because they have some cheap suits that go for less than $200, depending on your budget.
- Nordstrom
For some men, Nordstrom Rack is where they find good-fitting suits at a better price.
Additionally, most men who recommended Macy’s also recommended Nordstrom because their suits are in the same price range.
- Indochino
Most men who have a hard-to-fit-off rack body recommended Indochino because they do custom-made suits.
However, for better prices, you will have to be on the lookout for their flash sales.
- Thrift stores
You can find good and cheap suits at thrift stores but you will have to be patient enough to get a good suit.
That’s because most of the time 90% of the suits will be so outdated or not as good.
However, don’t judge the suits by just looking at them. Be sure to try them on. You might end up being so surprised at how good it looks on you.
Other recommended stores include:
- Spier and Mackay.
- Uniqlo.
- Alain DuPetit.
- eBay.

If you live in the UK, below is a list of the most recommended places to find cheap/affordable suits by most men in the UK:

Final word
When buying an off-the-rack suit on a limited budget, you have to be patient, and try them on before you put them aside.
That’s because you will not know how well the suit looks on you if you just judge it by the cover.
Additionally, I recommend downloading apps that notify you if there are better deals available. You can take advantage of them and buy suits that are within your budget.
