There's something so timelessly chic about sharkskin mens suits.  The hit AMC series Mad Men demonstrates their the style.  These Italian suits help create a strong aesthetic statement with clean lines, strong colors, and bold fabrics. There's truly nothing else on television that looks like this show and, now with Italsuit's expanded line of sharkskin suits, nobody can look as handsome as you.

Emmy voters may not have appreciated Mad Men (it got 17 nominations this year and 0 wins), but that doesn't mean we don't appreciate the show's fashionable ensembles. If you've been looking around Italsuit's site the past few months, you may have even noticed many new additions, including a whole section dedicated exclusively to sharkskin suits. Made in Milan, these suits come in a wide range of colors and styles. There's the hand-made Tessori Uomo in Super 150s wool, a classic wardrobe essential. Its matching vest, jacket, and trousers are regular cut, which means the fit is modern but the look is classic. Then, there's also sharkskin suits from Tessori Uomo's Harvey line. These luxurious 3-piece looks stand on their own as fantastic wardrobe pieces. The double breasted vests and fabrics with a nice sheen help forge this fashionable appearance. This is the perfect style of suit for those who think of StEve Harvey as their fashion icon.

Finally, the newest sharkskin suits in Italsuit's online store are the Signature Purple Collection slim fit suits. These sharkskin suits are perhaps the most evocative of Mad Men's style. Some of these suits offer tone-on-tone (navy, charcoal, brown, blue, etc.) while others have contrasting color schemes (white details on black, black details on silver, black details on white, etc.), giving customers many choices when trying to show their dapper flair. These suits have a market price of $1899; the team at Italsuit offers them at only $199. This is a savings of about 90%, a truly unbeatable bargain. Grab one and imagine all the adventures you could have looking like you stepped out of Ocean's Twelve or Goldfinger.

If you haven't been looking around Italsuit's online store, then you're definitely missing out on amazing fashions that don't sacrifice style for cost. From the enduring zoot suit to tuxedos and other formal wear, Italsuit has handsome, affordable outfits for any occasion. Be sure to check out the suits that qualify for Italsuit's current $99 special. Grab at least 3 of them and they're each only $99 and come with a free tie and handkerchief, expertly matched by one of Italsuit's amazing in-house designers.
