    Lambskin for leather pants?

    I've seen leather pants on some of these online stores that are made of lambskin leather. I was curious, how durable is lambskin for pants? I've generally seen people say lambskin leather is very delicate with some claiming it's actually too delicate for pants and would be more prone to...

    Soft leather jackets in the $500 to $1,000 price range?

    I was looking around for leather jackets, and was trying to find in particular a leather jacket made of a more soft type leather(ie. lamb, calf, kangaroo, etc.), and in more of a "fashion" style, like something more sleek as opposed to the more bulky biker/gear type look. Looking around...

    The Official Alden Thread for 2024 - Share Reviews, Sizing, Advice, and Photos.

    Does anyone know the sizing for Alden loafers, like if they run large, small, true to size, etc? The ones I'm interested in specifically are the 660 loafers. My shoe size is a 9.5, but I have a particular issue with having uneven feet(my right foot being slightly larger than my left), so I I...

    Are shoe trees necessary for dress boots and dress shoes/loafers?

    Yes, they're leather. They're the Gucci Jordaan loafers: There are the two trees I was trying to decide between, and wasn't sure which would be better for my loafers: Stratton Cedar Shoe Trees for Men Men's Full Shoe Tree (pair) Does it matter if the trees are split toe or full?

    Are shoe trees necessary for dress boots and dress shoes/loafers?

    Can anyone give some input on this? I have both a pair of YSL dress boots(Wyatt harness boots), and a Gucci boot with horsebit detail; and recently purchased a loafer from Gucci as well(Jordaan). I've seen this topic come up a lot, but wasn't sure what the general definitive answer was. Do you...

    What is the proper fit for leather loafers?

    Thanks for the replies, I ended up returning the pair i got and exchanged them for the 8 1/2, as I realized more and more they felt better, and the 8s were just too uncomfortable for me to stand it. I was going to get shoe trees for these, one thing, Gucci claims their loafers run big and so you...

    What is the proper fit for leather loafers?

    What about that issue when trying them with thick socks? I tried the same pair on with thick socks, and am noticing the right foot is uncomfortably tight now, like my toes feeling cramped. I worry this means it's the wrong fit, because the thick socks are the ones I'd like to be able to use, and...

    What is the proper fit for leather loafers?

    I bought a pair of leather loafers today and need an opinion on the fit. I wear a size 9 1/2, but have uneven feet(right foot is slightly bigger than the left), which I have to take into account when sizing for shoes. In the store I tried on two pairs and had to size down; the size 8 1/2 felt...

    Fit check and general opinions on this blazer?

    I just purchased a blazer from Nordstrom(brand is Theory) and was curious what people here thought of how the fit looks. Any general opinions on how it looks in terms of how it fits? Also I noticed the rear/butt flaps of the blazer seem to stick out some, is that normal or not? I have a pelvic...

    Saint Laurent Paris - Official Thread.

    I saw a new pair of boots from YSL that recently came out for the new season(Rainer Zipped Boots in Smooth Leather), and I really love how they look overall. I was real curious of outside opinions on these and what people generally think of how they look, their overall style and shape, and what...

    Cheaper alternatives to this pair of leather pants?

    I saw this really nice pair of leather pants at MONFRÈRE for about $1,200: I was curious, does anyone know anywhere else that has leather pants in that same kind of style, preferably at a lower price? I've seen some people saying anything much less than a grand for leather pants in that style...

    Thoughts on this Jimmy Choo Bag?

    I saw this really beautiful handbag on Jimmy Choo's site, and needed some opinions. It's the Webb Top Handle/s in Ultraviolet. It's currently on sale, but I'm not sure if I should take advantage and buy it or not. I absolutely LOVE how this bag looks, but my biggest fear is it not really...

    Thoughts on these Jimmy Choo boots?

    Update: I just got a pair of the Elias Zip Boots from Jimmy Choo, and was testing them out a little to get an idea on how to style them. Excuse the poor lighting and such, I just tried them on with a few pairs of pants just as a quick test real fast. I remember asking before about these...

    Thoughts on these Jimmy Choo boots?

    I was looking around and saw this pair of boots in their online store, and thought they may make for a nice purchase. I currently have the Wyatt harness boots from YSl and felt like these might be a nice alternative to have for something stylish as well. I can afford them, but I wouldn't want to...
