Undershirt: I sweat allot and my (Hanes) undershirt kind of sticks to 
my skin which makes me feel awful, I need an undershirt which won't 
have any of that, it should be sleeveless and the less cloth the 
better. 
 
Underwear: as above, plus rashes happen. 
 
Socks: as above, and feet sweat allot. 
 
Shirts: 100% cotton, white and button down, unwrinkable and short 
sleeve. 
 
Pants: long and black, don't know exactly the rest so through the rest 
of the information above and below it can be figured out. 
 
Blazer (or suit jacket): dark color, don't know exactly the rest so 
through the rest of the information above and below it can be figured 
out. 
 
Belt: dark color, it shouldn't fall apart and it shouldn't be one of 
those interwoven, don't know exactly the rest so through the rest of 
the information above and below it can be figured out. 
 
Shoes: black, not high heels, maybe a Timberland shoe, don't know 
exactly the rest so through the rest of the information above and 
below it can be figured out. 
 
Sweater: warmest sweater possible, sleeveless, surrounding the neck, 
not weigh allot or be thick, is it possible to get a sweater of skin 
of a bear or a fox since those should be the most warming? 
 
How do I measure myself to know which sizes I need, (by waist, neck et 
cetera). 
 
I am a male my early twenties in New York City. 
 
I wear the same clothes at sports and in business meetings, winter and 
summer, day and night. I would buy a bunch of the same (dozen exact 
same undershirts, dozen underwear, dozen socks, half dozen shirts, 
quarter dozen pants), so how can I get special prices. 
 
It should be comfortable and mainstream. 
 
The cheaper the better, but only if it does not affect quality. 
 
Please give me specific information: companies, locations, prices, and 
exact names of the clothing or numbers. 
 
(Oh, by the way, if possible, what's the best shampoo for beards so it 
doesent stick out but stays near the skin).  

Dear Me, 
 
Thank you for your inquiry! 
 
For undershirts and socks, try some that are made out of
polypropylene, or as a Commenter noted, CoolMax.  These fabrics will
wick away moisture better than cotton, which tends to absorb
perspiration.  You can buy these on-line at Sierra Trading Post for as
little as $5.95 and $4.95 respectively.

For a quality white button down shirt Good Housekeeping’s Buyer’s
Guide recommends Paul Fredrick, for around $34.95.  These seem to
wrinkle very little for 100% cotton.  To be truly wrinkle resistant
you’ll have to have some sort of a cotton/synthetic blend, try Target
for pants and shirts as low as $19.99.

For a classic black suit, or dress pants and blazer, shoes and a belt,
the right fit is essential.  It’s best that you go to a local
department store (JCPenney’s, Macy’s, The Men’s Warehouse, can all be
found in your NY telephone directory) where they can help you and do
professional sizing and measuring for free.  You can also find
sweaters and other clothing apparel at these stores in a variety of
style, prices and qualities.  I would suggest that you do NOT buy
anything made out of animal fur if you are trying to be stylish,
practical and mainstream.

Lots of quantity but no quality (the only quality was copied from the
commenter).

(me-ga rated this answer: (1): The "answer" of "skis4jc-ga" was just a
bunch of information which was misleading and time consuming which did
not assist me even a bit and to the contrary, if an -4 star was
availaible that is what I would give, appearantly GA has a major
problem: the person asking the
question might be charged while a researcher does a destructive job -
GA should get rid of skis4jc-ga. I would like my $5.00 to go to a
person who has added a "comment": "larkspur-ga", larkspur-ga gave me
exactly what I needed, larkspur-ga gave me %85 good and I would give 4
stars, GA should convince larkspur-ga to become a researcher. Note: my
question deserves a -5, it is because a week ago besides the question
itself my question was how to question my question. GA, don't let
skis4jc-ga's hands get on the $5.00, but give it to larkspur-ga.).

I am getting closer to making a final decision on where I will be
putting my money and I should post it.

(Google answers is great but skis4jc-ga...). Google Answers is going
to become a great hit as Google Search, and it will replace and change
"message boards" as we know it. Now the world awaits: Google Shopping!

Thank you larkspur-GA!

Sorry I live in Tokyo, not NY. But here is how you take your body measurements:
http://www.learn2.com/05/0556/0556.asp

Try the Gap or any big department store. Have you considered shopping online?

If sweating is a problem, you should consider buying socks, underwear
and undershirts made of a wicking polyester fabric like CoolMax (a
Dupont trademark, I think).  These fabrics draw moisture away from the
skin, unlike cotton which stays wet and soggy.  They are most commonly
used in undergarments designed for high performance athletic or
outdoor activities which would be sold (fairly expensively) through
specialist sporting or camping goods stores.  You can probably find
CoolMax-blend socks at a store like Ames or K-Mart, though.

Sierra Trading post at http://www.sierratradingpost.com is a good
place to buy wicking undergarments cheaply.  For instance I notice
that at the moment they have mens sleeveless CoolMax t-shirts for
$5.95 apiece.

For a warm sweater that doesn't weigh a lot, you should look for
something made of polarfleece -- it can provide the same warmth as
natural fibres like wool for much less weight.  Look at the
Performance Vests and Jackets section of Sierra Trading Post.

For pants and blazer you are probably best off visiting the menswear
section of a nice department store -- there will almost certainly be a
helpful sales person who can find you the right size and help you
figure out whether you want pleated pants, how many buttons on the
blazer, etc.  Once you have an idea of these things, it will be easier
to order online.

Oh, and I don't think it's possible to get wrinkle-proof 100% cotton. 
Cotton wrinkles.  I think you need a poly-cotton blend to resist
wrinkles.  This is also the kind of thing that that helpful sales
person can tell you about.
