He's a little high waisted, so that's not the best look for him. Love the color and the tailoring, though.

Men's wearhouse has some nice suits, nice dress shirts.
Every picture you've posted is a huge fashion DON'T.

Welcome to 2013 bro.
In twenty years, this will be mocked openly by our children like polyester leisure suits and robin's egg blue tuxes were in the 90s and they'll DESERVE it. Tis not prophecie, tis historie.

nah, in twenty years it will be fashionable again. duh.
If you can do it once, do it twice, if you can do it twice, go for thrice!
Fucking hipsters.

you mean like the hipsters of the 40s,50s, 60s? or do you mean modern hipsters who dress like the hipsters in the 40s, 50s, and 60s?
Modern day hipsters are trying to emulate the hipsters of yore? Thought it was crappy style all onto themselves.

Whether you like it or not, "No socks" is not "hipster," its a style aesthetic created and championed by a billion dollar fashion industry including designers, clothiers, stylists, models and photographers.
The "hipster" style is just a hivemind aesthetic of pale kids who fish crap out of vintage stores, UO and their grandparents closets to set themselves apart from the GP in any way possible. Stop using that word to describe any type of fashion aesthetic that's not popular at Old Navy circa 2006.

You're talking to guys who probably spend 3 minutes a year looking at what clothes to wear. You expect them to know that?
This. Not hating on them, some people honestly just don't care what they wear and look like. Just bugs me when they start labeling everything they don't like as "hipster".
About 10 years ago my local Men's Wearhouse tossed2 suits that I had paid for but hadn't picked up. It had been a number of months but I had overcome Mono and then gotten tied up by grad school in the meantime. Instead of calling me they just tossed the suits and the best they could offer me was a discount on 2 new suits, not to replace what I had paid for.
Since then I have boycotted Men's Wearhouse, and today it looks like it paid off. Suck it George!

Heh, I was thinking that was the best outfit out of the bunch. Looks great, and I love the tie.

How the hell did a thread about The Men's Wearhouse turn into a discussion of hipsters?

Can we kill this before this starts

everything that isn't jeans and tees is hipster. tragically, however, hipsters in the 90s wore jeans and tees.
time travel back to 2003
Why would you want to kill off good style?
these guys look like asshats

What's the big deal about the no socks thing?
It's a common look. I've never done it personally, but you see it around all the time.
Edit: Also I liked this guy
People like their feet sweaty & full of fungus?

leather-lined shoes really don't have this problem, IME.
Ankle swingers everywhere, can't stand them, especially not after being brought up whilst ankle swingers were openly mocked.

You'd think before the photoshoot they'd do some alterations to make sure the clothes actually fit the model. Kinda important with menswear. Even the most fashion-forward stuff should still be tailored well, or the gentleman looks like an ass.
