    Looking for new Navy Blazer

    Don't know your price range, but for 2 button side vents you can find things at Burberry. Their blazer is in the $700 range. They also have it at www.dann-online.com . It appears to be their top-of-the-line.

    Fused/Canvas Question

    This discussion is very helpful for me - thanks. Just a little more clarification please: On the canvas lapel, it looks like the canvas is stitched to the bottom of the lapel while the top is free floating, thus allowing the pinch test. On the fused, is the top or bottom fused, or both, or is...

    Double Breasted Blazers

    The Brooks Brothers double breasted Country Club blazer is available at 20% off for the next few days. More if you apply for a BB Credit Card. You can see a photo on their web site. It looks like the Country Club is an upgrade from their basic summer blazer.

    Burberry dress pants made in U.S.A.

    "Burberrys mens tailored clothing" is licenced to Hickey Freeman in the USA. It is possible that these are HF, in which case you got a good deal.

    Suit made by HickeyFreeman/Oxxford for others

    I was looking at a HF at Dillards about a week ago. It seemed to me that the suit had a lower quality lining than HFs that are available at finer shops or MTM. In about a week I will be getting a Burberry sport coat that is made by HF. This jacket is at a significantly lower price point than...

    Hotel tipping

    I am never quite confident that I am tipping properly when I stay at a nice hotel. First: I tend to tip when a valet has gone to fetch my car, but not when he is parking it. Is this standard? Secondly: I am not sure how to handle it when checking out of a hotel and use both the bellman and the...
