    Suitsupply NYC

    I'm planning to purchase a solid navy sport jacket since I don't currently own one. I basically have to go MTM to fit me (6'5", very long arms). I purchased a charcoal "Blue Line" suit 4 years ago which still fits me alright; I'm very pleased with it overall. It was basically a modified Napoli...

    Truman Boots

    I received the rebuild earlier this week, and they're fantastic. Here is a comparison of how the boot originally looked vs after about 10 wears. In the end, I'm definitely glad I went with a rebuild, since it seems like this piece of leather was defective and scars/flakes/cracks easily compared...

    Truman Boots

    Give me a ******* break. This is literally what I wrote in my email: "The right boot has some markings/irregularities in the leather on the toe. I understand that something like this is pretty typical for the kudu leather. Just wanted to get a second opinion on whether this would be considered...

    Truman Boots

    I heard back from Vince and he said the flaking/scarring was more than normal. There's probably nothing wrong structurally, but it's certainly unatractive. He offered a full rebuild or partial refund. I'm going with a rebuild in the exact same configuration/size, since otherwise these boots are...

    Truman Boots

    I finally received my waxy black kudu boots after over 7 months of waiting. I went with mismatched sizes and that worked out extremely well, they fit perfectly TTS to my Brannock size. However, I need a sanity check on the leather on the boots themselves. The right boot, left side of the...

    Thanks for the info everyone, I got tracking this morning. Truman also changed the shipping for me to require signature confirmation.

    Do you all get tracking when your orders ship? I have had a couple packages stolen from outside my condo's front door recently, and need to be extra vigilant when something like this is coming in.

    Some information about my experience so far: I made a custom order June 9 and reached the 18 week mark without hearing anything, so I checked the website for my account/order status and found that I no longer had an account. The account feature definitely was a thing, since I had a password...

    Truman Boots

    I took the plunge and ordered these in 14 left/13.5 right. I figure since my feet are half a size in difference, the best way to reduce risk that my sizing is off will be to actually order boots that are mismatched, and the consensus seems to be that Truman boots are TTS. My order is basically...

    Any more thoughts on the waxy black kudu? Thinking about getting a pair.

    Truman Boots

    Anyone have pics of waxy black kudu in the wild? Ever since I bought some Viberg brown waxed flesh in the GMTO last year, my black leather CWU-45 bomber jacket isn't getting any love. The Vibergs outclass my black Wolverine 1k Miles so much that I mainly wear my brown A2. I'm thinking...

    Official: STAR WARS THREAD. These are the droids you're looking for. **WARNING MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS

     I know people want to forget the prequels, but there were several droids in General Grievous' army in ROTS armed with a weapon that could take on a lightsaber.

    TOJ CWU-45 Black Lamb near size 52-54

    Yes, I used flash for most of them since they were at night and indoors. I made sure to highlight anything that might be important for determining its condition. You can see every place where some of the black has faded to gray, e.g. near the ribbing, front edges of the collar, elbows. You can...

    TOJ CWU-45 Black Lamb near size 52-54

    For sale is a TOJ CWU-45 in black lamb. It has silver zippers and hardware and a sateen lining. I received the jacket in November 2012 and it no longer fits me. I wore it pretty regularly in fall, winter, and spring for about two years. I am 6'5" and it fit me when I was anywhere from 200-215...

    Viberg Boots - Reviews, appreciation, news - share yours

    I received my slim waxed flesh boots last week. They're amazing. Any thoughts on how to care for the brown waxed flesh? I would like to be able to wear these without any worries in any weather condition. I have used Obenauf's HDLP to treat my Wolverine 1000 Miles and was happy with the...

    Luxire Custom Clothing - Official Affiliate Thread

    Any recommendations on a white poplin? I need a white dress shirt. I almost never need to wear a suit; this will be the first time in at least 7 years. It's typically only going to be worn at weddings or funerals. I have basically no opinion on which of these would be best and all are in my...
