Conor McGregor has a penchant for purchasing custom-made suits
David August Heil is a veteran tailor who’s been working with the who’s who of the entertainment industry since 1989. August has worked with some of the biggest celebrities in showbiz as well as sports such as Warren Buffett, Elon Musk, Tony Robbins, Clint Eastwood, Sylvester Stallone, Robert Downey Jr., Will Smith, Kobe Bryant, Conor McGregor, and others.
Besides, back in 2016, when the Conor McGregor vs. Nate Diaz rivalry was at its peak and the talk of the combat sports world, David August and The Notorious One announced one of their most ambitious collaborations ever.
The August-McGregor clothing line was announced in 2016 and is an amazing venture for the tailor and the fighter. The alliance provides the fans the opportunity to buy and wear David August’s creations at a much lower price.
On that note, Conor McGregor's F**K YOU’ limited collection suits can also be purchased for the price of $6,500 each.
Additionally, while David August suits can be bought at the price of $2,800, tailor-made David August suits cost $5,000 and above. Conor McGregor usually opts for the complete tailor-made experience.

Conor McGregor and the legendary ‘F**K YOU’ suit he used against Floyd Mayweather Jr.

With a force in sports and fashion like Conor, it makes our job exciting to create unique looks that enhances his natural confidence and power. He’s a disrupter in everything he does and we’re intoxicated by his passion and drive."
"I had been playing with the concept for more than a few months now and knew that it required the right opportunity to develop,” David August said about the ‘F**K YOU’ suit. “I think we found the right guy and golden moment to shine... Conor is a classic, quintessential gentleman when it comes to appearances and dressing for an occasion. I think he said all that he wanted to say…and then some with the suit."
