How to Build a Professional Wardrobe on a Budget (Without the Mistakes)
Building a professional wardrobe on a budget doesn't mean buying cheap suits that don't fit. After 25 years in the menswear industry, we've seen the same mistake over and over: young professionals in Phoenix buy work clothes without investing in proper alterations—and wonder why they don't look as polished as their colleagues.

For professionals in real estate, finance, law, and banking across Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tucson, and Flagstaff, we break down exactly what to buy, how much to spend, and why that $150 alteration is more valuable than buying a second mediocre suit.
