    Crockett & Jones MTO Central

    Hi all, can anyone comment on how long the last Lindrick GMTO took after it was filled? Have put my name down but pretty keen to get boots whilst still winter. Also on the spreadsheet is it the first person who is the sponsor? Was going to ask their permission if I could share somewhere else.

    IMO MTM is an overrated crapshoot. Either it works for you by chance, because you just so happen to suit the block, or you will probably get something worse that an altered OTR suit. The thing is most people who look at MTM are doing so because they have odd body shapes or features that don't...

    Does anyone think ordering from Exquisite Trimmings is a bad idea? I ordered from them in the past and found them really good value and great product, but I heard some rumblings of issues and of course their affiliate thread no longer exists. Can anyone see any issues with this? Presumably I'll...

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    You really should look at RM Williams. They are the only boot I know of outside of bespoke that is made of the single piece of leather. See the seam even on the C&J and Edward Green at the bottom of the elastic? I think once you realise that the RMs don't have this you won't want otherwise, it...

    Holy **** I recognised that guy from internetmenswearphotosIdon'tlike, I had no idea he was the creative director of Brioni. I also thought the metallica thing was a joke! Currently reading this article: http://www.gq.com/story/brioni-justin-oshea-interview Sweet jesus, that is the nicest...

    Well normally the schoolkids don't go, isn't that the point?

    No, this is incorrect. I can't believe I am referring to a dictionary, but this is the easiest way to demonstrate why this is not necessarily true. There are 6 different meanings here alone, and dictionaries don't capture the context of someone saying something. Hysteria CAN BE a...

    I'm not sure whether I agree with this. There are certain negative implications that come from condemning certain aspects or types of speech to private conversations only. In fact, this could be interpreted as a form of censorship. It's also a bit arbitrary, what speech is to be deemed of...

    1) It is precisely because nothing is objective that it is the listener's responsibility to interpret the intent of the speaker when listening to their words. When Abbott says "no one is the suppository of all wisdom" he may look foolish, but you still know what he was trying to say because you...

    I absolutely agree with your points on civility, but this is just manners or effectiveness, it doesn't have any real bearing on whether something or someone is right or wrong. It's like using a knife or fork at a dinner table, it's not required or objectively better than using hands or...

    That's ok, the treehouse is already full with me, Oli and JimmyHoffa. But I would be interested in a response to the crux of my argument, immature profanity aside (I was a little high on codral whilst writing it).

    What a complete shitstorm. My less than five cents: TBM asks a brave and difficult question, but in my (admittedly close to worthless opinion), it's based on the false assumption that language has no context in relation to the Mcguire shitstorm from a few weeks back. Regardless of how much an...

    This being scared of what you wear thing is getting old. Has anyone noticed how the people given a hard time about what they wear are generally big personalities/somewhat divisive to begin with? The clothing element is just something obvious and physical to give them a hard time about. How many...

    http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/verdict-oliver-curtis-husband-of-roxy-jacenko-guilty-of-insider-trading-20160531-gp7tve.html Look at that tasteful printed silk tie. That colour? It's called "deep magenta". And the material, that's "Macclesfield". My god... It even has a dimple.
