Conor McGregor spends an absurd amount of money for his custom suits

Conor McGregor has an attention to detail for all facets of his career and that includes the custom made suits he sports around each and every fight in the UFC.

Since arriving in the UFC, McGregor has prided himself on looking good at all the press conferences and media functions he attends and it seems none of that happens by accident.

According to McGregor's tailor from David August clothing, McGregor drops between $4,000 to $10,000 on each custom suit he orders and the Irishman picks up eight to ten outfits for every media tour he does for the UFC.

In other words, McGregor could be spending anywhere from $32,000 to $100,000 on his custom suits for each engagement when he's promoting an upcoming fight.

"Every outfit I make for him takes 60 hours," McGregor's tailor David Heil told TMZ.com. "He likes to wear his suits high and tight and really tailored, and his size changes all the time depending on his fights. So we’re always measuring him to make sure it fits exactly how he wants it.

"He’s such a style guy — he’s always been that way since the day I met him. He takes everything and makes it his own. It takes a guy with the right mind to pull off these extreme looks, and he does."

Now that amount of money might seem extreme to the average, everyday citizen but McGregor hasn't sat in that category for quite some time.

McGregor reportedly earned $22 million from the UFC and his various endorsement deals in 2015 and he's already raked in $4 million in disclosed purses from his two bouts against Nate Diaz in 2016.

Considering both of those fights are expected to rank in the top three shows in UFC history and McGregor makes a piece of the pay-per-view profits, the Irishman can probably double or triple the amount of money he spends on suits and never blink an eye at the receipt.
