    Who makes a large pattern houndstooth SC?

    I am trying to find a larger patterned houndstooth SC, with good quality, off the rack. I currently have a brown/tan Belvest but I would like something with a larger pattern size. Does anyone own one of these or know of places I can look? Thanks.

    Drape and body type question

    Does a suit with drape only look good on the very thin? I ask as I am having my first bespoke suit made in a few weeks, was thinking of something little more casual looking. I do not know what to expect, so I am trying to gather info here. I have all ready done several searches, reading and...

    Station wagon recomendations

    I am going shopping this weekend with the wife, hopefully to buy a new car for her. We were thinking of something with more utility than a sedan, like a wagon. I do not want an American or an Asian make, trying to stay with something euro like Audi, BMW, etc. Any recommendations from owners...

    ? about suede

    Can you tell what is a good quality suede and what is not? Some calf shoes can be described as plasticky, or the use corrected grain leather is apparent. Other than the other features of the suede shoe (sole, stitching, etc.), what can you do to judge the quality?

    MTM Blazer pron

    I wear the navy blazer or navy sc a lot more than a suit. I thought I would order something very durable, but still fun, as I wear them so much. I went with the micronsphere fabric from Zegna as it is known to be highly durable and very, very resistant to wrinkling. I chose silver buttons to...

    Sharkskin fabric

    Can someone explain what exactly "sharkskin" is, as in a cloth description. I hear of this term frequently and Soph has described his outfit in the waywt thread as such. Does this describe texture? Thanks.

    Qustions about the Lobb sale

    I understand the Lobb sale starts on the 11th, I searched and found two different numbers for John Lobb NY. Which location is the one to contact and is there any particular person to deal with? I plan on buying two or possibly three pair. My question is do they normally have a decent selection...

    What is going on with Mantellassi?

    I read over on AAAC that Wilkes has/is dropping them. Today, at Mario's a manager told me they will most likely stop carrying them as well. When I inquired as to why, I was told the company is very hard to work with and they are having a hard time getting shoes in-stock. I was also told the...

    Symmetry question

    I am an experienced lifter, but the last two-three months or so I have really been pushing myself/eating right and have made some solid gains. The issue I have is my left side is out-growing the right. As I am right handed, my left side is weaker and having to work harder thus growing faster. I...

    Zegna, the new anti-Thom Browne

    I just recieved an e-mail about the fall '07 line. It appears the designers have been listening to the popular view from previous TB, SF threads. I think they took it too far...

    Kimchi and its affects on an entire fridge

    Ok, short of buying a small kimchi specific refrigerator, how does one go about securely storing this stuff? My wife really enjoys this, unfortunately I have a strong sense of smell. The entire contents of a refrigerator can be consumed by the kimchi odor in little time. She usually stores it on...

    golfers - anyone tried the new square drivers yet?

    I am looking to replace a Ping G2 that I unfortunately dented. Does anyone have experience with the new square shaped drivers from Callaway or Nike? I picked one up at the pro shop and didn't really like the way it looked, I think it is kind of a fad but I am trying to hold off judgement. I...

    mto shirt, ALUMO fabric review

    I just recieved an order of mto Nordstom Exclusive shirts (new program for them), I thought they were a decent deal and should share the details. I am not affiliated with this company. First off, the alumo fabrics are really, really nice. This fabric is by far nicer than what I am used too. I...

    Belvest fit question

    I searched but did not find any info on the fit and silhouette of Belvest. The pics I have managed to find, they look rather boxy. Can anyone share some experience about the style of this brand? Thanks in advance.

    Zegna mtm question

    Has anyone ever had a custom lining done through this program? I had my tailor make a note to add paisley lining (got the idea in a picture on this forum), but he said they may or may not do it. Anyone with experience here?

    Negative reps question

    Anyone have experience or insight on how effective negatives are? I was talked into doing them last chest/arm workout. 2 days later, I have a very deep tissue soreness not unlike when I started working out years ago. Are negatives safe and are they a good way to break through a plateau? Btw...

    Dissapointed with Alden 954

    Wondering if anyone else has had an issue like this as it is a first for me. I bought a new pair of shell 954 monks from Alden and I am finding the shoes do not look right at all with narrow fitting pants. I prefer narrow tailoring with 1 1/2 cuff, a nice break on the front and just showing...

    Weymouth color and versatility question

    I plan on buying a pair of C&J Weymouth shoes from Ben Silver. I am torn between the tan or the dark brown. I almost always wear navy, medium/light grey, and taupe colored suits. I have nice footwear consisting of several AE models and two pairs of Aldens (one shell pair). These will be my most...

    Shell Aldens

    I purchased a pair of black shell saddle shoes from this company 6 months ago. I like them so much I am thinking of buying this set, however, they look a little "chunky" for my tastes. http://www.alden-of-carmel.com/index...Oxford_108.htm I can't justify more than 600 dollars for a new pair...
