    Great shoes below 250 pounds? [Europe vendors]

    Hi, I have a friend who's currently trying to develop a new wardrobe, now that he is finally done with his degree. Everything is set for him in terms of clothing, but we do need some new shoes. Personally I have suggested to purchase a pair of oxfords, brogues, monk-straps, loafers and white...

    Woven/braided belts

    Hi, I am very happy for my Suitsupply belt (dark brown, woven) which was 89 dollars in my currency. I am in fact so satisfied that I've purchased the other 4 different colors in suede. My best, Simone

    Explain what defines this fitting style

    I am a young guy who works in a fashion store, we sell multiple fashion brands like Hugo Boss etc. Not super high quality, but the average RTW suit I'd say. I am also personally interested in getting a fit like Tom Ford, I just don't have the budget to shop his brand, so I am looking into other...

    Explain what defines this fitting style

    Thank you for your input Mr. Reeves, it's nice to have a professional comment on the subject. You might not find the style flattering at all, but may I ask you: What body type is best for this style of tailoring? I have seen several actors like Gabriel Macht from Suits, Daniel Craig from James...

    Explain what defines this fitting style

     Thank you so much! It does make sense. I am trying to understand how tailoring can do something good/bad for each body type etc. It really helped that you put some words to it. Thanks again

    Explain what defines this fitting style

    Hi! So, I am trying to become better at describing different suit fits. I work in a place where we have very different styles. I have many customers requesting a "Tom Ford" fit, and while we do have the lapels size etc, we don't have the proper fit. What defines this typical Tom Ford fit? I...

    My ties are not hanging straight

    Four in hand and Half Windsor knots! This doesnt happen to my silk ties, only for my wool tie (my ties are from the same designer brand where i work) Perhaps i ruined the structure by tying is too strongly?

    My ties are not hanging straight

    Hi. I have an issue with some of my ties, which are 100% wool (and slim). My ties are always pointing in a direction when I am wearing it, rather than just straight down. Also, when I am hanging my ties on the rack, its straight (like I ruined some structure in it) Is it because I tie my ties...

    Shoe feels different from foot to foot?

    Hi. I recently got a new pair of calfskin shoes, and spent a few days walking in them. At this moment, my feet feels super different. My right one doesn't hurt at all after a day at work, but my left one aches in the toebox (especially my big toe.) When I try to bend my big toe, it hurts - so...

    Suitsupply Shirts - Thoughts?

    Hi! I am finally having a Suitsupply store opening in my country - and I checked out pretty much every category of clothing, I love the designs. I can get so many things which usually costs a fortune, but suitsupply created close to a similar design with a way more affordable price for me. I...

    I have tried a Tom Ford suit on in Harrods, and I know my size etc perfectly. I also own/have tried/sold as a sales associate suits from: suitsupply, hugo boss, canali, corneliani, tagliatore, pal zileri, zegna, kiton - so I know exactly where I get the most quality for my bucks, dont worry. I...

    Are fake suits "a thing"?

    Thanks a lot for your reply! Definitely some good advice. I found two ebay sellers in Europe, both of them have a physical store with the items available on ebay, and they have many good feedbacks. Their price is roughly 1200 pounds for a TF suit, and retail from department stores are 2200, so...

    Are fake suits "a thing"?

    Hi. I am currently looking into buying a Tom Ford suit on ebay. I found a few good options, but I am keen to know if there is a slight chance that the suits might be counterfeits. If I am buying from a reputable seller, and I have the ebay money back guarantee protection - what are the risks...

    "Graduating" from Hugo Boss Suits to Canvassed. Need recommendations

    I have worked with Hugo Boss as a suit specialist for quite some time, and I personally purchase Suitsupply for a way better price, but also find the quality to be better. Details like half canvas, functional buttonholes etc. are very valuable to me. The Tailored Hugo Boss suits are great, but...

    Suitsupply NYC

    If I want a ticket pocket on my suit, and I prefer a wide lapel (peak or notched) are my only option Washington fit? Lazio have a nice lapel, but no ticket pockets. Sienna do have ticket pockets, but they are too small lapels for me. Any thoughts appreciated! =D
