    Thrifters: How do you fix a price tag puncture in shirt fabric?

    Thrifters: How do you fix a price tag puncture in shirt fabric?

    What is this word, "expensive"? I thought you guys were all ballers. Yeah, I was just saying it wasn't even an option. I mentioned that it can't be done, in case someone were to suggest it. ccm

    Good idea, but I'm working offshore at the moment. So I'm a thousand miles away from the shirts. I'll post some pics when I get home on Thursday. ccm

    Thrifters: How do you fix a price tag puncture in shirt fabric?

    This is a legit puncture. It's not just the threads moved aside. Threads are broken. I don't want to agitate it until I know how to keep the broken threads from unraveling further. ccm

    Alden Shoe Trees?

    It would depend. Are the Alden shoe trees shaped like a Barrie last? If they are, and if your Aldens are also Barrie lasted, then matching the last of the tree to the last of the shoe is pretty important. Certainly worth $35, if you intend to keep your Aldens, or buy others in the future. ccm

    The art of being stylish in hot summers

    Bourbonbasted called me out on this a few months ago. He was 100% right, and I thank him and owe him for it. At first it felt unnatural, now I look around and when I see people untucked I shudder to think that that was until recently me. Regarding the heat, though - I'm facing exactly this...
