It Isn't the FEEL, But the LOOKS Of that Summer Suit of Yours
Were you ever the "first in swimmin'" hero of your crowd?
Proud of it, weren't you? Didn't wait till all the other boys had been in and proved that "the water was fine."
Suppose you met one of those other "boys" now and he had on a new Fall suit and you didn't? You would realize pretty suddenly that it is not the Weather, but the Season that causes changes.
Men abreast of the fashion are wearing Fall suits.
We have both the suit and the overcoat and we know something about fitting clothes to men. Our suits and overcoats range in price from $10 to $30
