In for a belt or two, just heckling this thread. It's all good. I'm expecting to drop from the challenge next week. I'm swinging by SuitSupply for a navy suit.

Nobody here could argue against that purchase. I've taken this challenge as "no superfluous purchases". I don't think a navy suit would fall in to that though.

Guys, I might be dropping out..... With the IHUK sale going on, and really wanting a pair of IH-555S-BLK's, I've decided it's actually smarter to break my no-buying and getting them now rather than waiting it out on principle and spending extra.
I'm going to think about it for another day, and see what I decide tomorrow.

Yeah I mean you're really saving money. Plus I'm sending back my natty dos for credit. Looks like I'll have more G credit.....hopefully they release the loomies again.

When they suggested credit for my three-sizes-too-small linen taupes, I counter-suggested a refund, and they were cool with it.

Actually, it's looking more like the 555-03 (Super Black Fades to Grey)

This 90Day thing is still a good idea. Yes I fell off and bought something But it's slowed my roll. Which I appreciate. You guys who have stayed on the wagon, Thumbs Up! To You! I failed but will still try to honor the rest of the days I have left.

I failed but will still try to honor the rest of the days I have left. I agree that it definitely slowed my roll as well. I'm still on the wagon, and it's been nice to not impulse buy on a drop that I like but not overly in love with. I thought the Antique Neps from G would've been my downfall, then thankfully, G photography 101 on drop #2 showed me the true color of the denim (nice looking), but not what I originally thought and helped make it a pass during the no spend.

And, it's DONE gentlemen. Wednesday, July 15 @0855 EST I purchased the IH-555-03 Super-Duper Slim 21oz Super Black Fades to Grey (SBG), with hemming service to the tune of $335. As DigDug said "I failed but will still try to honor the rest of the days I have left".

So who's honestly left at the halfway mark?

With some creative accounting, I am. I rushed a few things in right before, even though they hit the CC after the first day. Since then, it's been a battle of filling a cart, then emptying it and running away. Heh.

And, I still can't say that purchasing a well fitted navy suit would count against you, unless you already have a closet full of suits. Maybe it's not immediately necessary for you, but it IS a necessary part of every gentleman's wardrobe

Maybe it's not immediately necessary for you, but it IS a necessary part of every gentleman's wardrobe I just have a black and grey suit, and a bunch of navy blazers.
