    How seriously are tartan & regimental stripe patterns taken in the UK?

    The UK is so politically correct and self-loathing that I would assume you'd be mocked for wearing a tartan of any sort. No you wouldn't.

    Polish goat skin shoes

    I have a pair of goat skin boots, the leather is really nice and supple but when I polish and brush them, the polish flakes off after a while so when touching the shoes black flakes stick to my hand. Perhaps they're not as absorbent as my other shoes? Could anyone offer any advice? Tom.

    Mens fashion magazine that doesn't suck?

    I really don't enjoy Esquire, GQ, Arena, I think they're basically soft Appreciation, pseudo journalism, one or two fashion bits and the rest expensive (and tacky) watches, gadgets, cars etc. My bro gets a magazine called 10, it's quarterly and there's a mens and womens version, some of the photos are...

    DIY Alterations- side vents and slimming

    Well done to you for doing your own alterations, some good skills there. As for those licensing comments, are you high on crack? Those of us who live in the free world don't need a license to alter our own clothes.

    Quality of Lanvin Shoes?

    I was looking at Gucci shoes the other week, they're really bad quality, not worth half the price. The Lanvin ones I've seen in Harrods and Selfridges etc. seem like quite good quality. Tom.

    Tailoring pants down to slim

    Depends how skinny you are but you might ask for the fork to be taken in to make them tighter around your backside. I had a pair of smart trousers slimmed down, they look amazing but two things I would do slightly differently: Make sure the outseam is taken in from around the thigh, but not up...

    Not a great quality photo because I took it on my phone, I don't yet own these shoes, not sure if I will get them but they are very nice in real.

    Does Corthay have lasts with more rounded or chiseled toes? I like the ones stilmacher posted back in May of 07 in this thread: http://www.styleforum.net/showthread.php?t=36959 You're grasping for fallacies. Basically, you're a dick.

    I suppose it must be legal for those shoes to exist. Trumpers were fined recently for selling an ivory shaving brush. People who buy these shoes are fueling demand for exotic and rare skins. I just find it so strange that someone would want to wear such an intelligent and beautiful animal on...

    Elephant - from the ears. I think a person who would want to wear shoes made from elephant skin is pretty disgusting. Sure I wear leather shoes, and yes I am placing the life of an elephant higher than that of a cow, but come on, elephant ear skin, how can you be alright with that?

    Quality of Gucci Shoes

    This part makes alot of sense. Especially when one considers that the Gucci's, while horribly jester-like but fashionable today, will be dated in a few short years! In silver they look a bit silly but in black there's nothing jester like about them. Stickonatree - being glued would concern...

    Quality of Gucci Shoes

    Thanks chaps! Yeah I do realise that pair of 'designer' shoes are not gonna match up in quality to C&J, AE etc. But I doubt I'll ever wear a pair of those, well, maybe in 20 years time, but they just never look as stylish to me. Really I just wanted to make sure they weren't gonna fall apart...

    Quality of Gucci Shoes

    I've seen a pair of Gucci lace-ups with grosgrain trim, I love the style of the shoe but am wondering if the quality is any good at around £295? They certainly don't feel as well put together as any of the Prada shoes I own. I like them in black but these are the shoes (in silver )...
