Does anyone know where I can get a 3pc suit in Nürnberg area?

  Well I'm here in Germany, getting settled in, now I just need to buy a car but more pressing matters is I need to buy a suit.  I am looking for a 3 piece gray suit that will actually fit me.  The problem is I am 195.58 Centimeters tall with a 127 Centimeter chest and the only stores I have found do not carry sizes that big.  I even looked at a tailor, but 2000 Euro is too rich for my bank account.  I was hoping for 500-650 Euro range.

As I have 36 days until the wedding I need to get this done ASAP.

And since we have an international forum here I figured I would see if any of the members might have suggestions.  It doesn't have to be Nurnberg, I can travel to Frankfurt without a problem.

Thanks

I am not sure why you want a 3 pc suit as I think 2 pc suits are much better and more in style, however that is not the point.  You will find what you are looking for either in Frankfurt or her sister city which in Wiesbaden.  Best of luck in your search, and Congratulations on your pending wedding!!

I was actually thinking of a traditional double breasted suit, but Sofia thinks the 3 pc looks better on me.

Either way the best mens shops will be in Frankfurt or Wiesbaden.  All of the wealthy bankers etc. who work in Frankfurt live in Wiesbaden.  recommend you visit Sachsenhausen section of Frankfurt for a good time (nice bar scene, restaurants).

You'll find what you need in Frankfurt, there is a massive mall about a 3km walk from the main train station (or take the metro, of course). Two options which I suggest (I spend about 8 days in Frankfurt each year for the last 12)--go to the Intercity Hotel at Frankfurt Main train station--the head barman called John who directs me for all needs will tell you EXACTLY where to go, buy a beer, sling him 5 Euro, tell him Anthony the Australian publisher directed you there---all will be good.

Or, if he's not working, 3 blocks away is O'Reilly's Irish pub--the ex-pat staff will give you all the advice for local services.

Agree about the above poster--Old Frankfurt has some great German restaurants with brilliant pork/pheasant/duck etc, and there is another small Irish pub in that part which is run by a Sth African who has access to satellite TV and can play whatever sport is available upon request--for us Aussies/brits/Kiwis/Africans who visit there, the rugby is always available--you may prefer baseball/American football...it'll be there.

Thanks for the info, It looks like I'll be going to Frankfurt next week.
