The seersucker suit is a funny thing. Northerners mock it, claiming you have to be in Savannah sipping sweet tea to wear one. And people out West are simply clueless how to wear the damn thing. But no matter where you are, the seersucker suit is a classic summertime look — it’s dressy, it’s casual and it never goes out of style. J. Crew has put out a handsome three-piece variety for this summer, and it’s got some nice touches that focus on comfort and style. There are plenty of pockets to hide your shades and the chest piece construction virtually guarantees a tailored look without all the hassle. The blue is the typical outfit, but the khaki is a bit more edgy. Make sure you get the vest to complete the look.
