They may be a southern thing.. I see them occassionally in NYC occassionally - and honestly they aren't my favorite look -- by the end of the day, they tend too look like you've slept in them -- wrinkled and wilted... not crisp and fresh... I much prefer the look of a tropical weight wool suit, it's generally good for three seasons, 4 down south, and just survives more than a single wearing

Make sure you've got a good dry cleaner will will keep your suit looking good, if you indeed get the seersucker.
