Okay, so I started seeing Conor McGregor everywhere, right? Not just in the ring, but all suited up, looking sharp. Got me curious. I thought, this guy’s got a certain style, flashy, yeah, but sometimes it kinda works. Then I heard he actually had his own clothing line, specifically doing suits.
Digging into it
So, my first step was just trying to figure out what this line was even called. Took a bit of searching around online, typing in stuff like “mcgregor suits” and “what suits does conor wear”. Eventually, I landed on the name – August McGregor, I think it was? A collaboration with some designer fella, David August.
Alright, name acquired. Next, I wanted to actually see the stuff. Not just pictures of Conor wearing them, but the actual product line.
Checking out the Goods (Virtually)
I spent some time browsing their website, or whatever official pages I could find. Looked through the collections they had up.
- The Look: Definitely bold. Lots of patterns, peak lapels, stuff that stands out. Not your standard boring navy suit, that’s for sure. You could see his personality in the designs.
- Variety: Seemed like a decent range, from really loud, patterned three-piece suits to slightly more toned-down (but still flashy) options.
- Price Tag: Whoa. Okay, this was the kicker. These things were not cheap. We’re talking serious money, custom tailoring prices. Definitely positioned as a luxury item.
My Thoughts & The Reality Check
Look, I appreciate a good suit. I’ve got a couple for weddings and important meetings. But these August McGregor suits… they felt like costumes almost. Perfect for McGregor’s persona, walking into a press conference or stepping off a private jet. But for me? A regular guy?
I tried picturing myself wearing one of those bright pink checked suits to, like, a client meeting or my cousin’s wedding. Just couldn’t see it. It felt like trying too hard, you know? Like I was playing dress-up as Conor McGregor.
Honestly, the quality looked decent from the pictures, and the tailoring aspect is always good if you can afford it. But the style was just too specific, too tied to him. And the price put it way out of reach for just a “let’s try this” kind of purchase. It wasn’t practical for my life.
Final Decision
So, in the end, I didn’t pull the trigger. I admired the boldness from afar, clicked through the website galleries, and then closed the tab. It was an interesting rabbit hole to go down, seeing how a celebrity translates their personal brand into fashion. But for my own wardrobe? Nah. Sticking to my classic, reliable suits. They might not get me papped, but they also don’t require a fighter’s paycheck or personality to pull off.
