All wool suits for older boys, online or by mail

Is it possible to buy an all wool suit for a boy, size 20, outside of the tri-state area? It needs to be conservative, navy or black, pinstripes O.K., moderately priced, under $200, pref. way under. Is there any where online, mail order, or anywhere? They are not to be had in my midwest city. I guess a wool blend would be O.K., too.

Have you tried the department store? The store where your husband buys suits? (A size 20 boys should fit in a smaller mens size, like a 36 short). Otherwise google *young mens suit* and you'll get dozens of results.

Thanks, I'll try to google it. The thing is, I'm beginning to think that wool suits for boys may be becoming a Jewish thing! Department stores sel all the boys suits in ployester, or poly rayon at best, 'cuz hardly anyone wears them, and when they do, it's for a few hours to church! As for the really top department stores, I don't go there, couldn't afford it.

Have you tried Burlington Coat Factory men's department? They have very nice, affordable suits.

This Nordstrom brand suit is wool and $185. http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....33&P=1
