The Leisure Suit

The leisure suit gave men a relaxed alternative to the formal business suit, often in bold colors with wide collars. It was casual enough for everyday wear yet still felt put together for a night out.

Did You Know

Leisure suits were often made from easy-care polyester that resisted wrinkles.
