    HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

    I will say, that a decently priced quality modern hat is from a brand called Agnoulita...I'll say it is the Eidos of hat companies, where it is definitely not in the same league as custom or vintage, but many levels higher than most brands. About the same quality as higher-end Stetson hats, but...

    Biltmore Hats

    I understand that this may not be the right place to ask this type of question, but I was itching to learn more about the company since I purchased my hat. I have known that Biltmore hat company is a quality hat company in the league with Stetson, but I am confused about the state of the brand...

    Harris Tweed jacket sizing

    Overall the fit of the jacket looks good. The shoulders and chest are well fitting and the sleeves need to be shortened a bit (no biggie). The length of the jacket looks a smidge too long, but the pictures don't say much of the overall proportions when it comes to length. As for the buttoning...

    Good quality polo that lasts?

    The best polo shirts that lasted me the longest, other than kent wang shirts, are Brooks Brothers Pima shirts. If you find them with the collar being the same fabric weave as the main body you are golden. Polos with a mesh collar tend to have a more deformed collar over the years. I will say...

    Used (ebay) suits $200-$300 suggestions

    Hint: I'll start with Canali, Belvest, and Caruso on ebay :)

    Used (ebay) suits $200-$300 suggestions

    Good brands that can be found from $200-$500 are Caruso, Sartoria Castangia, Belvest, Sartoria Partenopea, Canali, Luigi Borrelli, and MAYBE A GOOD ISAIA. There are definitely more brands, but these are good quality, with full canvas construction and high armholes for the mainlines. In my...

    What's your take on the 3-ROLL-2-CUT jacket? Stylish or passé? Purchase or avoid?

    There is no way to predict the future. Right now many people wear them and the style looks nice with only the second button being used. Right now, if you button two buttons, you will look a bit antiquated. Despite this, who knows three button jackets where you button two buttons might be popular...

    Suitable styles for the exceptionally skinny?

    Well, the common-sense thing to say is that slim fit is your friend, but the less obvious answer is to know what to buy and how/where to buy. For workwear, brands such as Naked and Famous, Gustin, etc. are good, since they come often slim fit...even their relaxed fit is slim, which is personally...

    Is this a sport coat or an orphaned suit jacket?

    Here's a video from Gentleman's Gazette. I know some of their outfits kinda look tacky, but they have some good information! https://www.gentlemansgazette.com/spezzato-how-divide-suit/

    Is this a sport coat or an orphaned suit jacket?

    You could wear an orphaned suit jacket, but you need to be aware of certain things: If the jacket from a suit is very smooth twill, with barely any texture or patterning, it will look obviously orphaned. If the jacket has stripes, most likely it will look orphaned too. Look at the texture, is it...

    How to colour this blazer

    ^^ I forgot to mention, that I was redying my jeans that were already black. You need to have a white base color, or of the same color for the fabric you are dying. If you dunk the jacket in, it will destroy the interior of the jacket. Don't bleach the jacket, don't soak it with anything, just...

    How to colour this blazer

    It's better to look for jackets on ebay, if you wish to find them cheaper.
