    Best irons?

    Hi folks, hoping to solicit quick opinions on what some of the best irons out there are. Initially I was inclined to purchase the Rowenta Pro Master but was put off by many negative reviews on the quality consistency. I would prefer to have my iron as heavy as possible as it helps the ironing...

    Tailor in Sai Gon (Ho Chi Minh City), other than Dung or Cao Minh?

    Hiya folks, would anyone be able to recommend a good tailor there other than these two? I will only order trousers, not suits, so a tailor above average should be able to cater to the job. I would really prefer to use Dung but they mention that, due to Lunar New Year coming, it would take three...

    Joe's Tailor location in Singapore

    Can the forum's Singapore residents confirm Joe's Tailor location in Singapore? Searches in Google gave me a rather conflicting information: are they located in the Fuji Xerox Tower, Tiong Bahru, or Golden Shoe complex? Or perhaps they have shops in all three locations? If so, which location...

    Inspiration for an elegant shirt jacket / giacca camicia

    Hello folks, I'm hoping to solicit some design inspiration for a shirt jacket here. I am looking for something elegant while looking relaxed - the key word is relaxed and not so much casual. I am thinking of no patch pockets and no breast pocket, while having a 'shirt-collar' instead of a 'lapel...

    Any good HK tailors who can do suits in 2 days?

    Only have limited time and would be curious to explore. I'll be able to go back and forth for every fitting promptly. Would any of the usual reputed tailors that you guys are familiar with be able to accommodate?

    Getting an insulin lab test in Canada

    I saw two doctors to get an insulin test but both of them declined to order a lab test for me. I do not suspect that I have diabetes but I'd like to monitor my insulin level primarily for metabolic evaluation - my personal goal is to have my insulin at a very low level. I never have a family...

    For Sale: Mantellasi Wholecut Shoes Size 11, Caramel

    Bought these shoes from Lance Hughes (Virtual Clothes Horse) but unfortunately they are too big for me. Retail price was $995. I think they are either Norwegian or reverse welted. The toe has a faint medallion 'antiquing' effect. Photos are in this link...

    Accommodation in Hong Kong with PC and internet connection

    Folks, just wondering if any of you might know a somewhat budget accommodation in HK with a PC and an internet connection? And also within a walking distance to an MTR station.

    Constructing 'spalla camicia' - is it advisable to do it with non-Neapolitan tailors?

    So I am commissioning a suit with this tailor for the first time. While I believe that he is capable of producing high-quality hand-made products, his pedigree is not Neapolitan and I'm interested to get a suit with some Neapolitan traits, especially having the spalla camicia shoulder. Would it...
