Recommendations for an affordable suit?

I was interested in getting a really nice suit, something nice and fitted and classy looking. But I didn't want to spend thousands of dollars trying to get a Tom Ford(either from the site directly or second hand), or trying to spend that much getting one custom made. Does anyone have any recommendations for a nice suit that is sort of a middle ground? Something that is more affordable and not incredibly expensive, but also not some trash low quality thing either? If anyone has any suggestions I'd greatly appreciate it.

Kind of a broad question, so with no other info to go on, try SuitSupply or Spier and McKay.
Both make a reasonable quality otr suit and can do mtm if needed. 👍

Suit supply is probably what you are looking for.

I don't own anything from them, but a lot of members here recommend them as a starter suit, so I imagine they are decent.

Others can correct me if I'm wrong - but I believe if you go to a suit supply store they can do a custom MTM suit for you. Not true bespoke, of course, but still customized to your liking.

Since you mentioned Tom Ford, if the classic wide peak lapel with a ticket pocket Tom Ford look is what you are going for (like their Shelton or Windsor cuts), Suit Supply should be able to do that for you.

As someone who owns many Tom Ford suits, I've seen Suit Supply suits in the style of Tom Ford with wide peak lapels and a ticket pocket, and unless you showed me the label inside, I would have assumed it was TF.
