    My LASIK experience....so far (anyone else with good/bad Lasik experiences?)

    I got mine done in April 2008. I couldn't use Systane and other drops because the preservatives dried my eyes out even more. I was put on Bion Tears, which doesn't have any preservatives, and they worked pretty well.

    My Balmoral Boots

    Those trees look hinged. Fantastic. Those are the lasts. However, the trees are hinged if you look back at the photos I previously posted.

    Cliff must be following this thread or read your mind Orgetorix. He just sent me these pics of the last and trees.

    My Balmoral Boots

    They do look shorter, but I'm not sure if it's just due to the angle the photo was taken at. Cliff didn't have a last in my size, so he had to get a pair made. I'm guessing the lasted trees would have been made at the same time.

    My Balmoral Boots

    Bal boots similar to the Shannon II. I've asked him to send me photos of the process, so I'll do what AnGeLiCbOrIs is doing and post them here as I get them.

    My Balmoral Boots

    I emailed him April 1st and got a reply same day. We've since worked out the details for the boots I want made and I sent him my deposit via paypal today. It takes 8-10 weeks to make a pair. You can send him pictures to give him an idea of the sytle and colour you want. Once you've settled on...

    opinions on this Isaia suit

    Looks good to me; I like it. Does anyone have experience with this "aquaspider" fabric? What gives it the stretchy quality that the STP description mentions? The weave? STP calls it 100% wool, not a blend. I just ordered a suit with the aquaspider fabric at the Isaia trunk show yesterday. My...

    Where do you get your hair cut in Vancouver?

    Some of the master stylists at Sukis charge upwards of $85 for a men's haircut. I haven't seen what that would look like though.

    Where do you get your hair cut in Vancouver?

    I go to Sukis in Kits. I've been going to the same stylist for a few years and she knows how my hair grows and what works for me.

    Need help find a black plain toe balmoral shoe for $300 or less

    I noticed you're in Vancouver. If the Aldens are in your price range, and the only holdback is the shipping cost, have them shipped to Point Roberts and go across the border to pick them up. I just ordered a couple of pairs of shoes from the Nordstrom sale and shipped to The Letter Carrier...

    Things I started buying / wearing because of Styleforum

    I'm mainly a lurker and slowly learning by reading, but since joining I've bought 2 pairs of AE shoes and a pair of Vass shoes. I also bought a pair of 5epxSF.

    Courtroom Dressing Disaster

    I heard it was Madam Justice Southin of the BC Court of Appeal. Counsel was wearing brown shoes and she wouldn't acknowledge him in court until he changed his shoes.
