    Manton and Friends' Instructional Threads

    Totally understand if you don't care for their aesthetic. I find it useful, and many others do as well. If you don't like their style (or their personalities), it is probably best to ignore this thread. For me, I enjoy reading their advice and would like to know if there are any other threads...

    Manton and Friends' Instructional Threads

    I am not a good dresser, but I have become a better one after reading many of these threads. However, I always had trouble finding many of these threads when I needed to look up a reference, so I decided to gather the links for the threads that I have found most helpful in the past. If I am...

    whnay.'s good taste thread

    Here's a question: What types of odd-trousers are appropriate besides medium gray and possibly light gray? I'm assuming a khaki/tan odd-trouser is also appropriate. (also that charcoal and navy are both inappropriate).

    Washington, DC SF Holiday Party: THURSDAY, JANUARY 30th

    There's also: The Saloon on U Street - you may have to wait, though Local 16 on a Wednesday and Thursday (especially downstairs) is actually not horrific (unlike the weekends). James Hoburn, across the street from Front Pages, isn't too bad Darlington House is ok, also near the Dupont Metro

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

    I own a pair of the 213 and I wiped them down with a dry, old t-shirt and then applied Obenauf LP. Barely darkened and they went back to the normal color the next day. In other words, I don't think leather cleaner or anything is needed before you apply the mink oil or the Obenauf (or whichever...

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

    Agreed. The 8 last is pretty tight across the toes. I'm not sure if it is tighter than the 5, but I would go up a width in the 8-last from your normal Brannock size.

    The OneShirt: A Phoenix from the Ashes [4/24/13 UPDATE: A SHIRTMAKER, AN ENGLISHMAN, CHAMBRAY, AND F

    I am just wondering why trolls always feel the need to hijack and kill off the informative threads in Styleforum. There are literally thousands of inane threads on this forum, but as soon as there is one that is substantive and non-repetitive, which focuses on style and sartorial details...

    I'm hoping for sizes 13s or 14s, but I'm guessing that's going to be unlikely.

    From eHABERDASHER - a half canvassed suit in $325 - $350 range. Thoughts?

    It would be a good idea. I think there would be a huge market for them, especially for people buying suits for the first time or starting jobs that require them to wear suits everyday.

    The OneShirt: A Phoenix from the Ashes [4/24/13 UPDATE: A SHIRTMAKER, AN ENGLISHMAN, CHAMBRAY, AND F

    I've never had outright rude service in a restaurant in New York, though I do remember one time being seated near the back at Da Silvano years ago when the front of the house was nearly empty. But, then again, I frequently go to Korean restaurant with gruff waitresses without batting an eye...

    Should I wear suits for college?

    I know I shouldn't be reading this thread, but I can't help myself. Bravo Harvey Spector! You get TOTW!

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

    Try a 10E and a 9.5E. As masernaut mentioned, it is a very long last, so sizing down a half size might help with the toe box without making the shoe too loose.

    Washington, DC SF Meetup - Monday, May 20 - The Brixton

    Sounds like fun. The Brixton is in my neighborhood, so I'll try to stop by. It's always good to meet new people.

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

    I think people really have to learn to chill out a little bit. It's like once every two days there's a new flame war on this thread. And it is always much ado about nothing. The off-topic vendettas are clogging up this thread.

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

    Does anyone know where Allen Edmonds sources their calf leather? I think I read somewhere they used to get it from Annonay, but they have since change to another tannery. I ask because someone asked a question about the uppers on another forum, and I remembered that the leather from my AE...
