    The case for black dress shirts?

    I have a navy dress shirt that I sometimes wear going out. Looks much better than black

    The Uniqlo Thread

    I grabbed some boxer briefs from Uniqlo. They were cut a lot like my CK trunks, but were noticeably thinner. Still very nice, though

    "Cowboy Up" or not?

    As a native Texan, I wholeheartedly support western-wear. When it fits well, it can be extremely flattering. If western is your style, I don't see why you can't regularly wear it out and about . The cowboy look seems to fit wherever "smart casual" applies.

    Ask A Question, Get An Answer... - Post All Quick Questions Here (Classic menswear)

    I'm planning on building my dress shirt wardrobe from the ground up. Soon, I'm going to commission a couple of MTM shirts from my tailor to see how the fit/quality is. But I haven't decided what cloth to go with. Would it be more practical to go with easily found staples that would be slightly...

    Recommend a pair of ~$100 headphones

    I'm not much of an audiophile, but I have a pair of Grado SR-80i's which I love. I would recommend them if your want to go the over-the-head route

    Do wider shoes have larger toeboxes? I tried on a pair of size 10 AE Park Avenues the other day that fit perfectly, except for the toes in the right shoe (my right foot is ever so slightly bigger than my left, so I often have to size up to avoid crushing my pinky toe). Would a 10E fix the...

    Why do you really dress nice?

    ^Exactly. I feel confident when I am dressed and groomed well, and when I'm not, I feel painfully self aware. And yes, a pleasant demeanor and dressing nicely really does make people treat you noticeably better than usual. In addition, I've noticed that I get way more looks from the fairer sex...

    I wear shorts occasionally (yeah yeah, I know). However, a few are more of a "relaxed fit" which flare out at the bottom. Would it be possible to have my tailor taper the leg openings to reduce this? Do you guys think that would improve the problem and create a cleaner look?

    I'm thinking of grabbing a pair of slip-on sneakers for casual wear. However, I'm having a hard time deciding whether to go for "true white" or "canvas" (which has a yelllowish tint). I like true white shoes better but I have a feeling that they'll get scuffed up and dirty a week after...

    Does anyone have experience with John H Daniel MTM?

    I recently discovered that my tailor outsources MTM clothing to a company called John H Daniel. There are a couple of old topics concerning said company, but they didn't contain too much information and I'd like to see if anyone has recent experience (quality, styling, etc). I am planning on...

    Why are so many linen and cotton jackets fully lined? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of a warmer weather clothing? (Then again, maybe it's just the cheap ones that I've stumbled across)

    Shoe question: do any of you have any recommendations for a good leather conditioner? I'm putting together a shoe care kit and need some. After browsing through some other topics, I've noticed that AE and Lexol sound good. Maybe one of those? In addition, is it alright to use conditioner that...

    So Proraso has apparently reformulated its products

    UPDATE: Just got my sandalwood cream. Tried it out this morning. The smell is great (if much subtler than I was expecting) and the lather was awesomely slick. Proraso Sandalwood is Redbird_13 approved

    I'm currently contemplating grabbing a Uniqlo linen jacket for casual summer use, though I'm in debate of which color to get. What do you think, SF? Gray, beige, or off-white?

    That's a relief... Thanks for the info man! However, I'm not a 31 unfortunately,

    Naked and famous denim

    Does anyone here have experience with N&F Painter jeans? I'm thinking about picking up a pair, but I'm a little concerned about how well the denim will hold up. 5 oz isn't exactly sturdy

    Wearing red?

    I have a red sweater that I'm partial to. A little brighter than my usual garb, but not overly so (of course, now isn't exactly the best time of year for wearing one)

    So Proraso has apparently reformulated its products

    According to a post on Badger and Blade, it still lathers really well, but the initial blast of eucalyptus/menthol was toned down, which is kind of a bummer (I actually really liked it). Thoughts? Have any of you shaving enthusiasts tried it yet? On a side note, I have a tube of the new...
