    Has the supply of AE seconds dried up?

    I've not shopped for shoes for a couple years and now need to replace some of my Allen Edmond shoes. A couple years ago Ebay had at least 20 or 30 auctions at any given time in my size (13/14), now there almost nothing available. Any body else have this problem, or is it just me and my...

    Questions on general style and shoes. Please help

    Here we go again. As it relates to clothing, style is employing what works with your body type and personality. What works for some may not work for others. If it fits and you're satisfied with the price/quality ratio, buy it. Use it. The search engine will result in a hundreds of threads...

    question about shortening a dress shirt sleeve

    A simple search turned a couple threads saying it's not simple, but a decent tailor should be able too. Cheers, D

    +1 on Danners. Converse makes a good lightweight dessert boot too. Check out milsurp stores.

    First Time Dress Shirt Shopper - Anything decent from these stores?

    Sorry my mind wandered, you were saying? Maybe you were reading the wrong 39 pages. My meager post count to longevity date is because I've found everything I've needed to know with the search engine here and another similar forum. Here's something constructive: According to their website...

    Undershirts

    Sweat stains are caused by the aluminum something in the Anti-perspirant. Either switch to Deoderant or and a non-aluminum based AP. That fixes the sweat stains. Cheers, D

    Undershirts

    Another vote for JCPenny's house brand. It's the only thing I wear from them. Comfortable fit. Low enough V that I can't see it under a dress shirt with the top 2 buttons open. Available in tall sizes. They have a light and medium weight, IIRC At this price point they are disposable...

    red wine spill...

    I used 1/2 cup bleach and 1/2 cup dishwasher detergent in the washing machine. Let it soak for 45 min and then wash. Deal with bleach smell however you choose. Took out ink stain from accidentally washing my pen with a load of whites. Works fine on whites, but I understand it will bleach out...

    College student watches - Swiss Army

    I see far more Swiss Army watches than I see analog seiko's any more. Seiko makes a respectable "entry level" automatic watch. Very Good bang for the buck. I rotate 3 seiko automatics for my daily wear. Look for Hamilton also. If Quartz watches are more your pace, then I think you can start...

    Mr. Ned – a jacket

    Good luck with that jacket. I'm a couple weeks ahead of you in the process. I'm having my first "real suit" made by him. I just went in for the final fitting/alterations and was pretty happy with the way most of it came out. Being my first time, I decided to go with the house style 2button and...

    First Suit

    If you get one "off the rack," you shouldn't need to get measurements. Just try on till you find one that fits. measurements will be required if you buy online, etc. You might head over to your local "Borders" bookstore and see if you can find Alan Flusser's "Dressing the Man: The Art of...

    First Suit

    Is there an equivelant of Mr. Neds (custom NYC tailor starting at $700) up in DC? (if that's not too far away.) Otherwise you might get measured and shop Ebay. There are a lot of good bargains to be found if you can find a reputable dealer and something in your size. Many sellers will list...

    All you RM Williams Lovers...STP May Love You

    Thanks Mr Monty for the code. Worked fine. I ordered mine in black. Hopefully the fit a little long and a little wide (as compared to AE's) as Sator says in his excellent thread. Cheers, D

    "Puckered" Lapels?

    Thanks guys. I seem to remember seeing Pierce Brosnan with bubbly lapels in one of his movies. Bond? I can't remember. Several others too that are on the current "well dressed lists" too. Yet another reason to pay extra for a good dry cleaner. Cheers, D

    "Puckered" Lapels?

    What causes the "waviness" or "puckering" (or whatever the correct term is) along the outer edge of this gentlemans lapel? It is an effect that I see often and don't care for. How should a suit be constructed and/or maintained to prevent it from happening? link to the Sartorialist
