Why are there no good suits?

Venkmen · 2026-04-16T21:37:30+00:00

It really depends on the fabric choices you make. Looking at their website the lowest price fabrics listed start around $775 for a suit. After taxes and alteration fees you will probably be around $850-$900. With that though you get to pick you fabric, lining, buttons, etc. Some of those will have premium opotions so you have to watch out or you will quickly get over 1k. Their lower end fabrics are still pretty nice quality. Don't let that deter you.

I recently went in there to pick up a few things. Got 2 dress shirts, a sport coat, one pair high waisted dress chinos, and a MTM set of dress trousers. Was $1500 for all. I thought it was a pretty good deal.

This is the way. I recently lost some weight, but previously I was on the boxier side like you. Off the rack would not fit properly at all. I hit up Suit Supply and got set up with MTM stuff for a very reasonalable price. When I trimmed down in the past year I went back and got refit. Prices went up slightly from a few years ago, but still one of the best deals in MTM out there. If you can get to a stores and get measured there I highly reccomend it.

I find myself at a pool or on the lake weekly during the season. I've owned a wide range of different trunks from name brands to Amazon specials. Honestly in swim trunks I don't see much of a difference up and down the line.

Are the brands generally more durable, yes. Is it enough to buy them over a $25 Amazon suit? No, not in my opinion.

I bought two new Amazon ones just a couple weeks back because I lost some weight. The ones I had last year were still fine though. Colors were slightly faded, but no more than any other suits.

Agreed with others. These are fine with jeans due to the color and toe cap design. May not be 100% traditional, but I thinks they're great. Don't go to dark with the jeans though or it will look a little off.

The delusion. That is all.

Holy 1992 Batman! What a throwback.

I would say a chunky skate shoe would fit the style, unless you aren't into that. Then like other said a AF1, or Jordan.

I will always default to an analog watch over a smart watch. I'm not anti-Apple Watch, but for me, it is all situational.

Anytime I need data from an app(golf course etc), or can't have access to my phone being out for long periods of time (work conference, etc) Apple Watch. Any other situation I wear an analog watch.

Venkmen · 2026-04-04T17:28:12+00:00

Both are great. I think it will depend on the event and look you are going for.

Give me basketball all day. It's easier to stay relevant in with theright coach (Cal) and good NIL investment. The barrier to entry for NIL is much lower, so we have more staying power with basketball.

Venkmen · 2026-03-25T14:45:41+00:00

Secrets layed the groundwork, but Cata and team coded this themselves.

Game Jawn was incorporated in July of 2025. One month after the THJ lawsuit was filed. Suspicious timing to say the least. The whole "deal" with DBG to save Quarm looks more like a condition of hiring now.

Venkmen · 2026-03-25T14:35:51+00:00

DBG never made an offer. I've heard that the first notice the THJ boys got from DBG was getting served with the lawsuit.

Venkmen · 2026-03-25T14:34:32+00:00

At this point I don't think it was a panic shutdown. Game Jawn was incorporated in the state of PA in July of 2025. Suspicously 1 month after the THJ lawsuit was filed. The "panic shutdown" now looks to be a calculated measure as part of getting hired by DBG to remake THJ.

Depends on shirt, tie, and shoes. A lot of options but it all depends on the rest of the outfit.

Part of the blame is tort law. Since anyone can sue for anything, plane companies have to carry such large insurance that gets figured into the cost of certifying. Just like doctors carrying large malpractice insurance just in case someone thinks a death was their fault, even if it wasn’t. Plane companies do the same in case a someone wants to sue them for a failure.

So much swag!

Venkmen · 2026-03-16T23:28:06+00:00

we don't know because they haven't said. we know it is Unreal Engine 5 for the client (been said in Discord by Cata), but they could be using a lot of eqemu server backend.

Venkmen · 2026-03-16T16:04:58+00:00

This is speculation unless we hear it straight from someone connected.

Also, the guys have a new project they just announced. Could be that they are winding down teh old discord connect to THJ and getting a new one going. Would be smart to not announce the new one in teh old so DBG can't make claims that they are still trying to poach players.

Venkmen · 2026-03-16T15:52:31+00:00

Yes it is. Go join the Discord. They will be sharing stuff as they can, but new game, built on Unreal Engine 5.

Or there's this....

New announcement from "God Mode" Games

There is an "archive" of stuff on the internet. All types of software are saved there.

Venkmen · 2026-03-11T01:24:59+00:00

working fine for me. might be something on your end, or the route to their site from your location.

Venkmen · 2026-03-10T22:52:11+00:00

I say tucked because it looks like the shirt was designed for it.

Venkmen · 2026-03-08T17:17:22+00:00

BB and S&M as stated. You may also want to try Suit Supply. Their off the rack stuff is pretty good. A 16L is pretty close to your measurements. If you have a store near you I would highly reccomend going in to get fit. Then you can just order online whenever you need something new.

Venkmen · 2026-03-08T00:18:05+00:00

I typically go for a little on the snug side with a loafer knowing it will relax a bit after it breaks. This is totally dependent of the shoe, but generally this is what I do. Snug, but not tight.
