There should be an app for pants-size swaps.
I had to give away a bunch of mostly thrift, but nice dress pants.
When you pass 36, you know you are on your way to 40.
Luckily I hit the jackpot at my Goodwill with five long pants and five shorts in my NEW size! Not the same quality that I had, though.

And quality of current new clothes suck.
Speaking of, we had a super-dresser on the old board. Who was it?
I need a suit. I hate the uni-color aspect of it, but it may help the semi-short and round-ish dudes like me?

It wasn't me but I did sell suits at one point in my life and wore suits for many years.
Vertical stripes are your friend and braces (suspenders) instead of a belt, but I suggest a pocket scarf to accent. I really don't care for double breasted and prefer a 3 button. Proper fit and tailoring matter and if you need to revist the tailor then do it. Shoes matter too!
My biggest give is something I said on another post this week. It amounts to that I can wear about any suit and make it look good because I can wear it and wear it with confidence. Someone who isn't comfortable in an Armani isn't going to look any better in a JC Penny off the rack. I honestly believe that Men's Warehouse does a good job for most American men. Set a reasonable budget but don't watch the clock while you're shopping. One suit with a couple shirts, ties, and extra slacks will outfit you for most things.
