    Adventures in sobriety

    Just noticed this thread (which began, I see, right after New Year's). I hit the 10-year sobriety mark in January, but I am a Pure D alcoholic. A lot of what is described in this thread sounds to me like guys who are hitting it harder than they should and are trying to cut back. These are...

    Kent Wang seersucker contest

    Jacket's from a vintage Brooks wash and wear suit "” I wasn't in the mood for the full seersucker monty that day. Bill's poplins, LE shirt, BB tie, no-name thrifted loafers ( I suspect old LL Bean) and pocket square from I know not where.

    Fishing bags

    I had something like the bags in the original post for years but I lost it somewhere. I've been using these messenger bags from CourierWare for the last seven or eight years. I rarely keep fish so the liner is not a deal-breaker, and these are pretty waterproof. If I do decide to keep fish I...

    Journalist Wardrobe

    I work for a small weekly in Connecticut. I almost always wear a coat and tie, etc. I get better answers that way.

    Poll: Sperry Top-Sider vs Timberland vs Other?

    Quoddys, which are too expensive. My Sperrys shrank last summer, a serious problem in a boat shoe, I'd say. I have a pair of Timberlands but they are weird, walking in them is like walking on a rail. I think I will try Sebago next.

    NeoPrep -

    2,063 hits for this thread so far, Chum. I think NeoPrep is interesting. NeoPrep might be interesting. Your quest isn't.

    NeoPrep -

    'Ello, Ol' Chum! What is and what isn't "Trad" is indeed just like those old Punk arguments... This little discussion is all about the stage before that debate though. Why call it "Trad" in the first place? Nobody ever did before. And why have the rules of the OPH to define your new name for...

    NeoPrep -

    A guy who used to post under the moniker bosthist (until he apparently tired of the whole thing) said these discussions reminded him of the debates that raged in the early 80s among the Trouser Press crowd about what was "punk." This Trad-TNSIL-prep-Ivy- and now neo-prep horse hasn't...

    Help! My navy BB suit makes me look like a preacher

    You look like a young guy a little unsure of himself in a suit. Hardly a clerical look.

    Where to find solid color, non-button down, oxford shirts...

    I have one from Lands End custom. Seemed like a good idea at the time but I rarely wear it. No reason not to, I just don't.
