menswear HELP

[landarch]

I need to find good menswear for the weekend.  Business casual, no tie.  I have been to Lord and taylor, macy's, Bloomingdales, , even TJ Maxx.  I can't find a look that I like so need a place where they take the time to help you.  Do they still have those stores around?  Anyone know of a place like this?  Where do the best dressed guys shop in central NJ?

[Gaia]

<p>uuhhh, try Express men. Sometimes they have nice stuff.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

Yeah, Express Men might be nice.&nbsp; I&nbsp; haven't had to shop for clothes in a few years and am quite lost

<p>Maybe try Brooks Brothers.&nbsp; What you buy will last for a long time.&nbsp; They don't sell crap.<br />Somerville/Bridgewater area they just moved down the block from the Bridgewater Mall.</p>

Check Men's Wearhouse if they have one in your area.&nbsp; Cheesy commericals, but they actually carry nice clothes and where I'm at, the store staff is always helpful and will spend time with you.&nbsp; I shop there frequently for suits and ties, but I've seen alot of guys come in that don't normally wear business&nbsp; clothing.&nbsp;

<p>i hate to go shopping for clothes but i love to dress/look good, more so if we are going out.&nbsp; with that said shopping is a waste of time, i hate being in the stores around people and i hate trying on clothes that other people dirty balls were in before mine.&nbsp; i do all clothes shopping online now or regina picks up what i need/want.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>as for your query:</p><p>you cant&nbsp; go wrong with matty's suggestion.&nbsp; </p>

<p>i'm not trying on underwear.&nbsp; i just dont want to stand in something that someone else's dirty ass was in for 10 minutes.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

[Ritalin]

<p>I thought that all the cats in Central NJ shopped at</p><p><img src="http://www.casualmale.com/store/en_US/store_locator/images/CMstoresHeading.gif" border="0" />&nbsp;</p><p>(I know, too easy, right?)&nbsp;</p>

[Don Stugots]

no, they, like the men on staten island, shop for clothes at TRENDZ.&nbsp; if you ever see this store, you will know what i am talking about.&nbsp;

[CofyCrakCocaine]

I recently gained weight so I don't want to buy clothes I might not fit in should I ever get off my ass and lose the weight. So I'm stuck with what I've got for the time being.

For &quot;grown up boys&quot; clothes, you can't go wrong with Mens Warehouse and Jos. A Bank.
