    Durable, warm and stylish winter coat?

    I basically have bought two winter coat in the last two years and they are both torn to complete crap. I went through a virgin wool Lacoste 'dressier' coat two years ago. So last year I figured out that I would go for something that seems more durable: a Dunderdon J-25 Parka. It is now quite...

    Spiewak and other winter coats

    I just saw the Spiewak's jacket that Jason purchased and I have to say it looks hella cool. Could anybody give me some cues on how these jackets are fitting (i.e.: a small on a 36 chest would be relaxed or fitted)? http://www...........com/products.as...VendorCode=SPI I dig this coat but I am...

    Recommendation needed

    Hey guys! So, I am a 'two pair of jeans guy' right now. I have Canes 1947 and 5EP authentic fit vintage. I like how the Canes are slim through the leg (it fits my thighs better than the 5EP) but the rise is high. I like the 5EP's rise, so it fits better in that area than the Canes. Now, I've...

    I need a new winter coat for the spending the next months in Canada without literally freezing over. My good old Lacoste wool coat proved serviceable, but now it is kind of falling apart. I am looking for something warm but fashionable and I would like to keep the price tag under 400$ if...

    WTB: Small sz hoodie (Spruce, W&H, etc.)

    Hi guys! I'm looking for a small, rather slim-fitting (I'm a 36 chest at most) hoodie that is warm enough for fall in Canada. I don't have too much color preference as it is, but no white or yellow, that's certain. If you have a hoodie that you're looking to sell, I could very well be a...

    Duty free cigars

    Hi guys! I came back from the States yesterday and went to the duty free store on my way back to Canada. I saw some cigars, labelled Montecristo, selling for 7$. I decided to pick up two of them, even though I knew that this made no sense. First of all, I don't see how this store could sell...

    Choosing your style: the crossroad

    Hey guys, Choosing your style is a conscious decision, even though you are unconsciously influenced by tons and tons of factors. So, here I am today, at some kind of crossroads in my sartorial life. I am 20 and studying law in QuÃbec City. Even though this is totally off topic, I would have...

    Troglodyte Homunculus and Band of Outsiders

    So I'll be going to NYC next week, but I'm a serious budget. I am thinking about buying some Pumas (the Pele's shown in the ADIDAS vs Puma thread) and a nice, slim-fitting shirt with a beautiful pattern. I have come to understand, via this forum, that two of the brands making that kind of...

    Internet buying blunders

    I just received this Paul Smith shirt which quite different from what I had expected. Being a francophone, sometimes I don't quite get the meaning of some english expressions as they are totally unknown to me. Now, that was one of these occasions. So two weeks ago I ordered a magnificient...

    Burgundy shoes with a black trouser?

    Hi, I am contemplating buying a pair of shoes and I happen to like burgundy a lot. However, I am not sure if this color could fit with my a pair slim-fitting black trousers. Some people actually go for brown shoes in these occasions but that's a question on which I am uncertain and I have yet...

    Help the denim newbie

    Hi guys, A few weeks (perhaps months) ago I made a post in which I asked for advice for a rather cheap pair of jeans (under 125$). I am now prepared to pay between 125 and 200$ so I think I'll have more opportunities. Here's the deal: I am looking for a jeans that's fitted, not skin-tight...

    Real Canali shirt?

    http://cgi.ebay.ca/NWT-CANALI-MENS-L...QQcmdZViewItem I'm pretty sure the guy missed the measure of the sleeves pretty bad. I mean, no one makes 25.5" sleeves. Of course, that's Sportswear so the level of quality is not the highest of Canali's, or so I would guess, but I'd like that to be an...

    What do you wear when going out?

    Hey guys! For most of my life, I had been a guy who liked to just hang around with friends and chat around a beer or two at a pub or something. I hated clubbing and all that stuff. Now, I am starting to get fond of that, but I don't always know what to wear exactly. There's of course the...

    Costume National

    Hi, I have seen some good comments about Costume National's garments in the past, both here and on the other forum. I have a few questions for our experts. 1. Are the cuts too fashion-forward for an interview with a law firm? 2. What is the retail price that I could expect? I am not willing to...
