    Tips on where to buy sale-price shoes (Northampton brands)?

    Excellent! Thank you both. I'll definitely check out some of those sites. The C&J store discounts is a good shout too, particularly given that they have seem to have most of their stores here in London.

    Tips on where to buy sale-price shoes (Northampton brands)?

    Hi everyone. I'm based in the UK and I'm looking for a new pair of Oxfords. Just wondered if anyone had any tips on where to buy reduced/sale items shoes? I believe Loake once had an eBay shopfront for factory seconds, but this seems to be defunct now. Otherwise, Herring seem to have some good...

    LOAKE APPRECIATION THREAD

    I have a question about an old Loake line of shoes I'm struggling to find information about. My friend has given me a pair of Loake shoes called Loake Business. The shoes are black with a Dainite rubber sole and the model is called 200BR. The only shoes I can find like these in the current...

    Suit alterations in London?

    The alterations are fairly simple to be honest - letting out the trousers, taking out some shoulder pads/adding some new ones, so a Savile Row alterations tailor would probably be overkill in this instance. Can you recommend any others? Thanks.

    Hi everyone. I'm currently seeking a alternations tailor to carry out some work on a couple of suits. Does anyone know of any good - and hopefully reasonably priced - alternation tailors in London (preferably West Zone 2) area? I've already done a forum search for this topic, but most of the...

    Making alterations to Suit Supply suit

    Thanks for the replies. I did ask at SS about having a suit made in the same material (linen) and was quoted £800 - which is way beyond my budget, unfortunately. Then again, the sales assistant might have been referring to their bespoke service rather than their MTM, so may be worth rechecking...

    Introduce yourself.

    Hello all, I'm Oliver from London and am looking to extend my wardrobe in a smarter direction as I approach my mid-30s. Have found these forums invaluable as a lurker, so thought I'd become a member and contribute some thoughts of my own. :)

    Making alterations to Suit Supply suit

    Hello all. I recently purchased a Suit Supply lazio linen suit. Unfortunately, since it wasn't possible to let out the trousers in the smaller size 38R I had to size up to a size 40R. While this size does fit my waist/thighs, the jacket is about an inch too wide on the shoulders. Suitsupply...
