    Fashion disaster getting married. please help

    A black suit is a formal suit. The pinstripes add a business connotation. Between these two factors, a tie is a necessity. If you would prefer to ditch the tie, then it would be best to change the color/pattern of the suit. Ideally, you would go for a sportcoat/trouser combo if you're going...

    501 alternative

    I'm looking for an alternative to my Levi's 501s. They just fit a bit too tight in the thighs. I like the button fly, and the fit below the knee, but I would like something that's a little looser above the knees. I've already tried sizing up and having the waist tailored, but that doesn't really...

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    Quote: Agreed... I spent about an hour going back through the thread to find out how he did this, and it was just like you said. Mostly store credit, etc. He came out of pocket $39, which is by no means a pair of shoes for $39. The whole search turned out to be a complete waste of my time...

    FRIDAY CHALLENGE Jan 24, 2014: NORTHERN LIGHTS

    Here's my shot at it. Although I don't want the burdens that come with "winning" this competition, I don't think there's much risk of that. Crappy cell phone pictures below...

    Boots in the snow

    What do you guys that live up north, around salted and snow-covered roads, wear for boots. I'm about to head up that way for a week, and wanted to pick up some boots, but was curious as to what works well. I don't want to go to a sporting goods store to get cheap duck boots, but I don't want to...

    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

    Quote: Somehow my wallet snuck out of my coat pocket and onto my desk. Looking at that handsewn moc - now I need to know what the sizing is like compared to what I have now. I wear a 9.5 in my AE park avenues and the same in a variety of Santoni shoes. Any ideas of what size I should get?

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    Dumb question - Is it possible for an SA to look up a gift card used on the last purchase, and to use it without physically having the gift card? I have mis-placed a gift card with a little over $300 on it, and have a few things on hold until I find it. Not sure if its even possible to do this...

    Which things do you look at when choosing a shirt?

    I just searched for "what to look for in a shirt" The first result, post #5 gives a link to a blog post regarding how a shirt should fit - answering #s 5, 8, 10 and 11 on your post. Literally took me 30 seconds. Here's the thread...

    Could you help me draw the line between classic and casual?

    It should be pretty obvious to you by glancing through the WAYWRN thread here and the equivalent over there. If not, then post pics here of what you wear each day, and we'll help direct you to the proper place. There are several members that cross over quite a bit, though

    Fit Advice?

    What does that pic have to do with the OP? Other than the fact that they're both wearing DB overcoats? Most of the commentary here has been about sleeve length, and that guy, inexplicably, is not using the sleeves of his coat.

    Assuming that you mean conservative business dress when you say "classic" -- Buckle shoes, classic or casual? both Jacket unbuttoned, classic or casual? both Jacket doesn´t match trousers, classic or casual? sportcoat/blazer with trousers - both Jacket matches trousers but not exactly the same fabric, classic or...

    Arden Reed - Kickstarter

    I love how the "reviews" on this company, good and bad, are by posters with < 10 posts, and mostly just posts in this thread. Plus there are no pictures to confirm any of the claims regarding fit/quality. Highly entertaining.

    Please Identify This a Style of Vest/Suit

    Try posting it in the Luxire affiliate thread. I'd guess they can make it for you at a reasonable price, if you really wanted something that looks like that.

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    Quote: I was speaking to a SA a month or so ago. They said they've noticed a drastic increase on the number of sales in the past year. Word is that management has noticed a complete slump in business when there is no active sales, and they are going to try to maintain continued business...
