[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 3005049, member: 13624"] Good to hear. I'd love to have some high-end clothes (though I'll probably wait until I get some weight off), especially for court days; frankly, though I know it's not American, I think it'd be fun to have a Savile Row suit (and an appropriate hat). I can't afford any of that right now, but I can respect those who make that choice and stand by what they believe. For knocking around in the mud, crawling around under cars and tractors, and generally beating up before they have a chance to wear out naturally, though, I'll stick to my cheap-as-dirt Wal*Mart stuff. And, honestly, some of those foreign-made suits aren't bad, especially with a little tailoring. If I don't have to spend a ton on clothes and other supplies, I can pass the savings on to my clients; I'm sure they won't mind a Bangladeshi suit instead of a bespoke Savile Row number if it means I can knock a few dollars per hour off of their bills (though I suspect they don't want me showing up in cheap gym shorts, as it [I]would[/I] affect the outcome of their case!).
