    Who still wears a suit to work?

    The boss pretty is old-fashioned. At least Casual Friday would make things a lot easier for everyone. I think dressing, or sligthly above in formality, like the client is the best way to go. Wearing a full pin-stripe suit with Hermes tie to meet a client who wears fisherman's turtleneck...

    Who still wears a suit to work?

    I work for a Private Bank where the only dress code is "always tie". You always have to wear tie, but you do not have to wear a suit. Working in a bank wearing a tie without a suit or jacket is silly, so it ends up that everyone wears a full suit or blazer. We also do not have casual friday. I...

    Fake or Real (Authentic, Genuine, etc.) -- Official Authentication Thread

    Is this a fake E. Marinella tie? Bought this recently from eBay where the seller claimed it was from a sale stock, hence the red dot on the label. It didn't cost that much, and it wouldn't break my bank. But the seller is still selling E. Marinella ties and ties from other "niche" brands. The...

    HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

    Hi guys. Quick question. Is it a bad idea to wear dark brown suede loafers (the pair below) with a wool suit and tie?

    Suede Loafer Suggestions?

    You might check out Myrqvist, which is a relatively new brand. The shoes are goodyear welted and made in Portugal (and should have similar quality as Carlos Santos). I just received mine, and my first impression is great. Good construction, leather and fit.

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    Anyone knows if the calf leather around/below the ankles gets softer after the shoes have been broken in? I noticed that the leather is fairly stiffer than my other oxfords around the same area.

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    My Ruis are very comfortable and roomy, while my Hiros in the same size is hella tight and needs a lot of breaking in.

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    Do you know if sizing for Rui and Hiro are the same? Or should I go half size up for Hiro?

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    Yes, I have tried. I unlace them all the way down.

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    I just got my first pair of Meermin Oxfords in the Hiro last. I bought a pair of Snuff Suede boots 4-5 years that I still wear. However, the Oxfords are very tight, stiff (which is expected from this thread) and tough to break in. The shoes are not uncomfortable when I wear them, but I struggle...

    I see a lot of blazer with flap pockets. I feel like I cannot buy one because it looks like an orphan jacket. How can I find a blazer/sports jackets that do not look like an orphan jacket?

    Buying and Selling on eBay: Tips, Tricks, Problems & Questions

    There was no reserve price, and eBay is just waiting for my payment. And I have to wait for a shipping quote from the seller. Guess I'll have to wait another week to see if he sends me an invoice. Not sure what else I am going to do.

    Buying and Selling on eBay: Tips, Tricks, Problems & Questions

    I just won two auctions from the same seller, and the seller didn't quote shipping so I cannot pay for my goods. I won two E. Marinella ties for $10 each. It might due to the holiday seasons, but he still told me how much it would cost to ship it (it was double the price of what I am used to...

    Charles Tyrwhitt Reviews and Fitting

    I just bought a white CT natural cool shirt. They are really comfortable and light compared to the poplin or twill shirt, but it is slightly more see through.

    My job has a strict tie policy, and most guys wear a suit with a tie. Is it a bad idea to start wearing sports jackets (not something in crazy fabrics or colors, just standard navy or charcoal wool jackets with patch pockets) with wool trousers instead of a suit?

    **The Official Shoe Care Thread: Tutorials, Photos, etc.**

    The consistency is creamy, but not watery (like Saphir Renovateur). It feels like hair wax or vaseline. Also, I have some Wax Polish that is hard. Inside the box it moves around like nuggets. Is it ruined or supposed to be like this?

    **The Official Shoe Care Thread: Tutorials, Photos, etc.**

    It's the one on the left. I am not sure if it's cream polish, but that's the information I have. Apparently, you can get it in different colours as well.

    **The Official Shoe Care Thread: Tutorials, Photos, etc.**

    I have white shoe cream from long time ago (got them for free with a pair of shoes I bought). Is it useful for anything other than white leather shoes?
