    I'm wondering, is anybody is familiar with Eddy Monetti shirts?(Milano Rome Napoli on the collar label).I was in the local thrift and picked up 5 of these in various striped combos.None had size tags,so they were bespoke.They all said "Cuccita a mano" and had definite hand stitching all around...

    Creases on new shoes

    LOL--Good one.OR, buy shell cordovan shoes which form undulations rather than sharp creases.I've also found that wingtips hide the creasing quite well.

    holy hell, are these Kiton shoes??

    Auctiondrop,the firm who is listing these,is notorious for vague and innacurate listings.I bought a "Kiton 100%wool suit" from them and when I received it,I jumped for joy,as I looked inside the breast pocket to discover it was a Diamante Blu 150's -worth about 3 times what I paid for it.

    The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

    (LA Guy @ June 10 2005,14:02) Anyone know if Keezer's in Cambridge, Mass. is still any good for quality togs? No, there is nothing of worth there these days - you would do much better going to one of the consignment shops on Newbury Street, several of which have a discount system, much lie...

    Vass Shoes Ordered During 'A Sartorial Excellence'

    I have a pair of the Norwegian Split Toe laceups,in a Cordovan color and I love em. I especially love the way the insole is lined with a single piece of leather.No more rolling leather as you remove your foot.Great for rainy days,but I love mine so much,I wear my Aldens instead.

    The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

    I was there last week,as they were part of my grid of places,but nothing of interest there.Unless you seek used Brooks Brothers or Southwick suits for $85-125.,but then again,many thrift stores have them for much less.

    Opinion on Fancy Suit Linings

    Definitely a nice personal touch.I think the British tailors started the trend with the flamboyant linings.Today,many of them have their own "signature" lining colors/stripes.
