Where does your H shop for clothes?

[glitzy07]

Or, alternatively, where do you shop for your H's clothes?

H's birthday is next week, and my first idea for his gift was a bust (apparently he decided he didn't want it anymore).  I asked if there was anything else he'd really like and he mentioned that he could really use some new "nicer" clothes.  "Nicer" meaning anything better than the ratty old t-shirts and jeans/shorts that he currently wears unless we're going out somewhere.

I have a budget of about $150 to spend on his gift and want to buy him a few decent things.  Considering my go-to is usually Target, I don't think that's going to cut it.  

What stores should I check out online?

Nordstrom's and J Crew (outlet mostly)

This will likely not be helpful, but my husband goes to Gordman's once per year, in the summer, and buys $150-$200 worth of clothes, mostly shorts and collared shirts, sometimes a pair of dress pants or a pair of jeans, and that's pretty much it for the year.
He's a PE teacher, so he doesn't have to wear fancy clothes to work, so he just needs weekend and summer clothes!

ETA: If you've never been to Gordman's, there are plenty of options that are a step up from ratty t shirts and shorts, and lots of decent brands. They have a tall section, which is nice for my h.

He basically only shops at REI.

I find things at J crew or banana republic, or sometimes ll bean.

[aspentosh]

J. Crew, Gap, Old Navy, Banana Republic. He tends to wear plain t-shirt and can get those anywhere. Shorts he'll wear golf shorts or similar.

[Ashley&Scott]

Kohls - overall I'm much more impressed with the quality/pricing of their men's clothes vs. women's.

[cincodemayo]

Usually just Old Navy

[niq]

Express Men, Old Navy, J Crew, REI, Amazon

[namasteak]

Work clothes - Joseph A Banks
Casual clothes - GAP

[krisim]

BR, Jos.A Bank, Rue La La, Land's End

[teatimefor2]

For non work clothes: J Crew and BR.

Zara and other European chains that seem to accommodate the smaller, Meditteranean-type build better than a lot of American chains do.

If your H is not 5'6 with a small frame, then ignore me.

Haha, we have the opposite problem.  He's 6'4" and medium build.  It's so hard to find stuff that's long enough for him but not hugely big everywhere else!

Kohls for jeans. Shirts are nautica, tommy, and some Eddie Bauer thrown in. We live near the outlets so about once a year we hit his favorite stores and he gets new shirts.

[jr009j]

Costco, REI, Patagonia, Eddie Bauer, LLBean, Brooks Brothers Outlet, and golf pro shops. Suits from Jos A Banks and Gilt.

[jewel]

Costco. Occasionally Nordstrom Rack or Marshall's.

But mostly Costco.

[coffeebean]

Macy's, Old Navy, Costco and Cabela's

[annieh22]

Costco and Eddie Bauer for shirts that fit his frame --tall and thin, hello Scandinavian roots. Eddie Bauer has lots of tall sizes in store.

Macy's, Nordstrom Rack as well

[mlt]

He is pretty wedded to J Crew, Levis, and Gap for casual clothes.

For work he gets shirts and suits at Nordstrom.

[brooklyn]

Mostly Gap, J Crew & Banana Republic with a little Old Navy.

[AlpineSlide]

kohls
farm and fleet type stores (he wears a lot of Carhartt stuff)

[achi]

Old Navy seems to be his go to. A little bit at Costco if he happens to see something he likes and needs while there.

[Deleted]

Kohls, Macy's, Herbergers. I find a lot of his beloved polo shirts there for a steal.

He likes AE for jeans and plain T-shirts.

Gap is another good bet.

ON is hit or miss. Love the style but he either drowns in it or looks like a little kid. The sizing is so off for him and he's like 5'6" and 150 pounds...so less than average even.

And yeah, Fleet Farm.

[turtlegirl]

Um - probably not a good person to ask. He wears a uniform to work 5 days a week, so he doesn't have that many clothes.

But he gets most of his "nicer" weekend clothes from either Kohl's or Costco, lol.

[Deleted]

Big department stores like Nordstrom or Macy's, Gap, BR

[pippa]

Bonobos provides over 50% of his wardrobe. Then Nordstrom for other work shirts and Jcrew to round it out.

[jinxy]

Kohls and Eddie Bauer are where most of his clothes are from.

[iheartbanjos]

Patagonia and Nordstrom (both have great return policies).

[azurely]

Express, J Crew, Banana Republic

[bowies]

His work clothes are almost all from Express. Slim cut shirts FTW!

His casual clothes are a mix of Express and Old Navy. I want to burn the ON stuff. He wears it to death and since he's long in the torso, the Ts are always too short.
