Reiss’s Pieces

Aside from the NFL playoffs and happily bailing on that “be less fat” New Year’s resolution, January ain’t good for much.

Except for suit sales. Specifically at Reiss, where their razor sharp Brit-inspired cuts are more than 50% off. Our three picks:

For the Office


The light blue “Daniel”: off-center enough to turn heads, versatile enough to pair with your current stable of shirts and ties. Strangely, not named for our New York editor. Buy online

For Mixing it Up


Pro tip: double-breasted jackets are making a big comeback. Reiss’s “Derby” is cut slim and modern in a nice neutral tone with a subtle windowpane for personality. Pair it with trousers in a dark grey or even burgundy – turtleneck at your own risk. Buy online

For Stopping Traffic


Every guy needs at least one statement suit. The showstopper that’ll make you feel like a million bucks every time you take off your overcoat this winter. Go for the James Bond-ian “Calvert” and get used to sitting at prime tables in restaurants. Buy online

Nota bene: Don’t see your size online? Ring Reiss’s Bleecker St. or West Broadway shops, where they’ve often got that last 40R.
