One trick that works with tailoring is to get two pairs of pants made per suit, because pants wear out faster than jackets.

I have a pair of these. They’re amongst the best scissors I’ve used. I just have to remember about the serrated edge on the one side when I’m using them on a workpiece.

I’m also an Olfa fanboy. Gotta show love to the tribe.

For going out I have a Nordstrom house-brand black t. It’s modal instead of cotton and it’s so comfortable. Not something I’d ever wear for housework, or hanging out by myself; but money well spent.
