details - part 1
hello hipsters!
dressing is all about the details!
I would like to bring up a detail which is almost always overlooked!
S-O-C-K-S!
Yes I said it, socks!
They are not without pizazz these day; crazy colours & patterns; they don't even have to match your outfit. Crazy you say? why not! Can't see them you say, waste of money you say, well no. The trend in pants this year has been pants that are a bit shorter with little or no break. Guess what, we can see the socks now! Have some fun be proud.

Style tips for the GROOM
All right gentlemen!
Its your big day.
What should you wear? Buy a suit or rent a tux?
Well, a tux rental is usually boxy. They do not provide proper tailoring or choice of a slim modern suit. Secondly, why would you want to wear a suit that has been worn by tonnes of other people? Oh, by the way, the aren't dry cleaned after every use. Not something I would feel comfortable in! How about you? Why not buy a suit and own it? Freeds offers a suit package, which starts at $199.99, $259.99, $299.99(includes: suit, shirt, tie, belt & socks - add $39.99 for shoes) - yours to keep and get more use of! Furthermore, no one has perspired in it, woke up in a ditch in it or other things I refuse to mention.
This suit should be a representation of your personality! Whether you need a formal suit, semi-formal(destination wedding - linen suit) or even casual suit, Freeds has them all, at all price levels.
Colour wise, black is always perfect, but recently different shades of grey, has been increasing in popularity.
In addition to suits, we also carry tuxes. These are also great for someone who has to wear a suit every day to work; this may be a happy change!
Details, you need to stand out from your groomsmen. Whether you wear a vest or different colour tie/bow tie or even a pocket square......stand out! Try a bow tie or a tie, pick up some cuff links, etc.
Lastly, don't forget to grab a gift for your groomsmen. Perhaps some cuff links, tiebar, or even a pen or flask.
Congratulations! Remember have fun!

softer, brighter, slimmer
Softness has become paramount in the way people shop. We are looking for clothes that feel good. Consumers are levitating towards brighter colours. Lastly, fit! Guys want clothes that are fitted, but comfortable with no excess fabric.
