The Obama Suit
The suit that Barack Obama has been sporting is grabbing the attention of style magazines and average guys alike. His suits are custom tailored by Hartmarx, which is a 121-year-old Chicago based company and the largest suit maker in the United States. Since Obama has made his particular suit popular, even the Hartmarx CEO has started to wear them. The Obama suit, as it is often called, is always the same style and material — a two-button, single-breasted suit jacket and single pleated pant with inch-and-a-quarter cuffs, and is made of a 97% worsted wool and 3% cashmere blend.
And I certainly wish more men would dress like Barack Obama. His look is classy, yet refreshingly simple — dark suits, a white dress shirt and a gorgeous blue or red tie (most of the time). His suits are tailored to fit giving him a nice slim silhouette. When he is being casual, he simply takes off his suit jacket and rolls up his sleeves to mid-forearm — no fuss yet always looking sharp. Take note guys!
You can pick up a 100% worsted wool version of “The Obama Suit” under the Hart Schaffner Marx label (the Gold Trumpeter collection) from $695 to $795.
