            Suit, even if the dress at work is casual?

              Management position though. And you're stepping up from the floor. Show them you mean business.

                  To be honest, this is just my gut reaction. I'm in no way an expert on these matters. It just seems to me that if the owners like you enough to give you an interview for a step up then I would be interested in showing them I can take it seriously. That I'm also interested in taking my game up a notch. But business culture in the US isn't something I'm very familiar with.

                  My thinking is that the suit shows professional standards, charcoal and black leather is some classy shit and no tie keeps it a bit more relaxed. I bet @Appfaff would be the go-to guy for the money answer here though.

                    I agree with Neph on the suit with no tie - I only wear a tie when I want someone to be intimidated of me lol [emoji23]

                    I always do a pocket square tho to add a bit of flare and Show i k ow HOW to wear a suit, not just simply putting one on.

                    I know you’ve dropped a bunch a pounds - hit me up, I have about 5 suits that would fit you - I’d be happy to drop ship for you tomorrow  if needed [emoji869]

                      Gentlemen thank you so much. Charcoal suit it is. Putting it on the credit card. Adam
                      Thank you for the offer but my interview is Tuesday and I’d need the suit tailored by Monday night.  Yiu guys are the best. Adam, what color picker square?

                      Maybe so. Maybe not

                        White shirt and white folded pocket square always looks classy. I do have some bright and colorful ones I use to coordinate with crazy socks sometimes when it the situation calls.

                        Best of luck with the interview bud, you will kill it 🙂

                                Can anyone recommend an inexpensive place to send old boots to get resoled? I want to get Vibram ripples or cristy's on an old pair… not looking to spend $300 though.

                                          I know this is a stretch. But you never know.. But, is there anyone that lives in Japan that would be willing to buy and ship this shirt to me?

                                          I am willing to well compensate you for your efforts. I can PayPal the money for the shirt in advance. They refuse to ship outside of Japan.
