    That's the main problem I run into. So many dumb questions from idiots because they just don't read the description. It scares me on some of the higher end stuff. I kind of expect that if you're spending that kind of money on an item on eBay then you would want to read through the whole listing.

    It's close, but the waist on the jacket looks a bit tight and the pants are too long. Also, what color is the suit? Black? Charcoal? If so, shoes should be black. If it's navy then you're ok. Some folks around here might also take issue with all the "extras" (lapel flower, tie clip etc). At a...

    If they are owned by Luxottica, you can call Luxottica directly and order new lenses for around $20 I think. I generally follow the method explained by Jesse here:

    Picked up a pretty good tie-haul a couple days ago. Haven't gotten around to snapping pics yet, will soon. Today, however, I didn't find much but did grab Marvin Gaye's "How Sweet It Is..." vinyl. Jacket was pretty beat but the vinyl itself is in great shape. Listening now. Mmm, so good.

     I've never bought socks or underwear, but have definitely bought pajamas. I don't put them in the same category. And the pajamas I bought were bespoke Ascot Chang. Hehe

    Some boots today. All for me! Neiman Marcus, made in England w/ Dainite. Any info on who made these? Also Neiman Marcus, but made in Brazil. My new bum-around-town boots! Filson work boots. Nearly NWOT.

    Can't really make out the mfr. Burnett? Either way, it's likely a well made table, even if it's from a lesser known manufacturer. The top may not be real wood however. The shine is too intense. Unless it's just a bad camera angle.

    WAYWRN: Classic Menswear, Casual Style

    Haha, point taken, but I still stand by my statements. I led music at my church for two services, and had just arrived at my brother's house where I was about to change into casual clothes for a BBQ. He was beckoning to the patio with beer so I quickly snapped a photo (with the crappy iPhone...

    Thanks for the input! Yeah, I agree on some counts here. The sunglasses were an accident. Had just come in from outside and stuffed them into my pocket. It's a habit to just put them into my chest pocket, which is usually my shirt, not my jacket. Definitely agree on too much square exposed. I...

    The shoe in question is an oxford so this isn't it.

    I don't mind each piece separately, but together this looks like pajamas to me for some reason. Jeans might remedy this.

     Thanks for the input! Yeah, I wasn't sure about the square at the time but we were running late to get up the mountain haha. I actually have just had the pants hemmed and this was their first outing. As soon as I had been wearing them for a little while I knew I would have to get them...
