Greetings all, I'm new here and had a question...how many wearings do you routinely get out of a suit before it gets too ratty to wear for "front line" use? I work in a cemetery/crematory/funeral home and wear a suit or sport coat and trousers every day, 6-7 days a week. I hate to spend a fortune on clothes, but I also don't want to look like a rumpled mess either. I have been buying suits at Jos A Bank, and they seem to wear reasonably well, but I have several that are getting tired.

Any thoughts?
