    Styleforum in Paris: Streetstyle Pics

    I think the pictures are fairly representative of the demography and people you will encounter in some parts of Paris.I didn't find anything shocking or disturbingly out of place in these streetshots. I would add that most (if not all) of them, for me, are distinctive of paris : not so much...

    Cool furniture, design objects and desiderata

     I see you have embraced the Elan. I've had for 8 years now, best one I ever bought. !luc

    Vanson/Styleforum/Thurston Bros slim fit Japanese double rider MTO

    Over a year of waiting, $200 price hike and the euro has plummeted against the dollar. That translates in a roughly 50% price increase for me. It looks nice but I'm out. !luc

    White Dress Shirts

    Depends on the fabric. Lighter cottons in my experience are more expensive and less durable. Some of these shirts (from neapolitan makers) will start to fray at the collar or at the wrist after 4 or 5 years of moderate wear. Sturdier coton dress shirts from H&K, E&R will last longer. !luc

     Might get more help asking on the cafe racer thread, don't you think?

     Not at all, everything is perfectly clear. It helps if you have been following it from the beginning, as you should if you are ready to shell out $700 for a jacket... @canstyleace has summed it up rather nicely up above. I agree though, @Thurston Bros has a lot of patience dealing with some...

     Thanks, that's what I thought too, but the post above is misleading. Maybe they won't ship a fit testing jacket internationally? !luc

     Does that mean you won't be able to ship internationally this thread's jacket? !luc

    Interview with Luca Rubinacci, Part 2

     Yes, that's probably the idea. Nevertheless, I consider it to be detracting from his image to market selling suits to Kazak politicians. !luc

    Interview with Luca Rubinacci, Part 2

    Yes, making all the money dressing up politicians from one of the most corrupt country in the world, nice. !luc

    Yes, let's stick with the proposed revision which shortens the sleeves and reduces the shoulder width. !luc

     a 19" p2p in size M is more like a fitted t shirt. Also, 2x the p2p measurement is not what your chest circumference should be. You have to take measurements on your existing garnments to make a valid comparison. !luc

     Thanks. Indeed a size S should be more like a 18" shoulder at most. 17.75 sounds good. !luc

    Vanson/Styleforum/Thurston Bros slim fit Japanese double rider MTO

    Do you have an idea of p2p and shoulder width for size S and M? I would then feel more at ease with discussing shoulder width decrease. There is not much you can do with your jacket if it's too slim at the shoulders, so we should be extra careful modifying this. Granted I have plenty of chest...

    Looks good. Definitely need to shorten these sleeves though. !luc

     My kids are playing rugby which in some ways I would consider less violent than soccer. !luc

     Both teams looked exhausted. Weather was harsh on european teams. And I suspect french physprep aimed to be on top during the first round. !luc
