    Dress like a maitre d'

    Anyone ever heard of this Duca Sartoria outfit? Jeez, $2,500 per waiter suit is almost bespoke money. Oh, and by the way, the food sucks (though I haven't been there lately). San Domenico

    Dinner party at a partner's house

    Hi All, I'm invited to a dinner party at a partner's house outside of Boston at the end of the month. The invite said 'informal', so I won't be wearing a suit, but what do I wear? I'm new to the firm, I've never met most of the people that will attend, and have no idea of what to expect -...

    Shoe service plus in nyc

    I just picked up my C&J handgardes from SSP after a full sole treatment. What prompted me to use SSP, besides recommendations on this board and a referal from Barney's, was the fact that they have a Rendenbach educational display in their window (I never knew there were so many 'flavors' of...

    Shoe scuffed badly

    I had the misfortune today of slipping down half a flight of stairs, even though I didn't shine my soles... Anyway, besides getting a dinner-plate size bruise on my upper hip, which earned me a few weird looks at the swimming pool (yeah, speedo), I managed to scuff the upper of my left shoe...

    Gresnon compared with c&j

    Just received my Rugby Masterpieces from Bennies. My credit card was charged $250, pending an expected refund of $100, making the whole thing a great deal. I thouhgt it might be fun to compare them with my Handgrades: Fit and last shape: Grensons are rather narrow, but are otherwise true to...

    Barney's sale update

    I visited the sale today, having had nothing better to do, and picked up a nice Ballantyne (scotland) cotton zip cardigan in medium blue. Price paid was $140, down from probably $350 if memory serves. Sweaters are extra 30% off. Been looking for a zip cardi for a while now, but the only one I...

    Grenson masterpieces $250

    Grenson Have you guys checked this source for Grensons on the (reasonably) cheap? I just ordered the Rugby Masterpiece semi-perfd captoe bal in cognac for $250 delivered. I think it's a reaosnable deal, considering they cost the same amount - only in GBP - delivered from Pediwear. The guy said...

    Sunspell boxers from sierra trading

    I ordered three pairs in medium - Â Sunspell: The good news: price is right and fabric is soft and pleasant to the touch. I like the pattern - matter of taste, i guess. The bad new: of the three pairs, one is noticeably larger. The cut is not very good, such that the fabric bunches up in the...

    C&j finsbury 11d

    I paid a brief visit to the sale today. The only C&Js I saw were the Finsburys (brogue wingtips) in black and dark brown, both 11D. Interestingly, the brown pair was $209 and the black $240. Unfortunately, I'm size 9. Otherwise I saw tons of bruno magli platinums for $270. They seem to...

    Grenson tor

    Hi, Any experience with these? Tor They are quite attractively priced on pediwear -- about $240 shipped to the US. Can someone explain the difference between the Tor and the seemingly similar C&J Coniston, which will amount to more than $410 shipped? For one thing, they're storm welt, but on the...

    C&j handgrade refurbishment

    My handgrades are suddenly in dire need of a new sole, after walking yesterday in the rain. I called C&J in London and they offered the service for 90 GBP plus 30 for shipping back. The gentelman was good enough to inform me that they're having a sale, and have 3 handgrade styles left at 220 GBP...

    Paraboot sizing

    I'm considering these Constant from Sierra Trading, as a semi-casual everyday shoes. I'm a US 9 to 9.5, but from my experinece with French shoes (Heschung), they run one size bigger, such that my 8.5 Heschungs actually feel a little roomy. Anyone can comment on Paraboot sizing?

    1. short boston trip

    It's interview season again and I'm expecting to be flown in to Boston next Wednesday for a fourth round interview with a law firm (I'll still work in NYC if I get the job though). The whole business should be over by noon, and then I'll have a few hours to spend in Boston. Now, if this thing...

    Moreschi sale and berluti at barney's

    Moreschi NYC (53rd and Madison) has a 60% clearance on some of its stock. Goodyear  cap-toes and wingtips are about $329 - would you consider this a good deal? BTW, they used to have a nice window display of a goodyear shoe cut across to reveal the inner workings. Very educational. I didn't see...

    Bergdorf shoe find

    I was taking my lunchtime consitutional which often includes a peek into saks/bergdorf/barney's, and spotted htese Pelusos for $199, down from $475. I'd reckon it's a fair deal- good quality leather, goodyear construction. There were a couple of Gravatis there for the same price, though they...

    Kiton and borrelli denim!

    Went to the local Barnes and Noble during lunch time to go over a few magazines, and the new Robb Report has a piece on premium denim featuring the new Kiton and Borrelli denim lines (in a plethora of those god awful Italian pastel colors). At least for Borrelli, they claim exclusive use of...

    Manufactum

    I wanted to share with you my latest find - Â Manufactum (they also have a British website at manufactum.com, but product range is much smaller) It's a German company that, according to its mission statement, tries to unearth 'traditional' products - those made of 'classical' materials, not mass...

    Vilebrequin bathing suits

    This has to be the most irrational purchase ever - I picked up on Friday a matching set of Vilebrequin bathing suits for my 1.5 year old son, Nate, and myself, on the occasion of me signing him up for his first parent/child 'swimming' class. Check this out - Vilebrequin I chose a nice butterfly...

    A new gym bag

    I'm in deperate need of a new gym bag, my current one having been in service for 4 years now, which is probably 3 too many. I'm looking for a rather smallish duffle style bag - say 20" or so in length. I want something cool looking, but no messenger bags please:-) I swim 3/4 times a week...

    Update on interview

    Thanks for all who chimed in with outfit advice. I wore the simple navy suit, Hilditch shirt (light blue) and Borrelli tie (navy/blue/gold). BTW, the people who interviewed me give a whole new meaning to the word 'casual'... Anyway, I don't think it'll work out. Problem is, as always, money  -...
