    From the EG pin-up catalogue, it looks like it's similar to the C&J Weymouth. Is there anyone who owns or knows about both the shoes give some comments? Thank you.

    Is the Styleforum site slow

For close to a week now, I have noticed that the speed has slowed down significantly - so much so that it is like the old days at Ask Andy's site. The Ask Andy site now, conversely, is extremely fast on my PC. Is what...

    Question for the shirt experts

    I have a friend who just got 3 or 4 new shirts tailored. I saw them when they were new and the MOP buttons seemed to be of a high quality. They were of medium thickness, in a translucent, pearly white and have a deep and beautiful lustre. They had very few speckles of "colour" (for...

    New line of church's

    I was in Hong Kong a couple of days ago and saw in the Church's boutique a new top-of-the-range line called "Royal". To my untrained eyes, the leather seemed to be better than that of the "custom grade" (which I believe was the previous top-of-the-range from Church's) but the...
