Urban Suits

by Victor Santerino

Urban suits are a new phenomenon that is catching on quickly among consumers. These suits have a unique style that is drastically different from the classic contemporary styles you find in older models.

Reading this article will give you all the knowledge you need to decide whether an urban suit is right for you. You will learn the similarities and differences between these suits and more traditional suits. After this I will give you some example designers, and tell you where to find them.

This suit comes with the same parts as the traditional suit. As always you will find: lapels, buttons, shoulder padding, pockets, and even inner lining. These parts will almost always be present on all models but will be styled in a unique way of their own.

Major differences are found in the way these parts are styled. Urban suits take on a more aggressive youthful appearance. Many parts are streamlined to make the wearer look less bulky and more self assured.

The consumer on the prowl for a more urban looking suit should find a model with lean lapels, tight shoulders, and slit pockets. This consumer will want to match this type of jacket with a pair of pants that extend to the ankles without cuffs or pleats.

Michael Kors, Sean John, Perry Ellis, Steve Harvey, and Tommy Hilfiger all carry a wide variety of urban styles to choose from. Shoppers should stay away from classics like Botany 500 or Pronto Uomo.

These suits are harder to find at the retail level because they are not carried in many rural and suburban areas. Look to find this type of suit in larger cities like New York or Philadelphia. Otherwise you should check out the many different online vendors for some great bargains.

I hope this article has given you some insight as to what an urban suit is and what it is not. My hope is that you will now have a much easier time deciding what suit to buy and where to buy it.
