    [pics] How do I fix these damages to my boots?

     +1. They're work style boots. They look better with some wear on them. Just cream/polish/oil them up from time to time and they'll end up looking fine. Babying boots is silly (and counterproductive).

    Tailor in Mumbai

    I should probably have posted this when India is awake.

    Tailor in Mumbai

    I'm looking for a tailor in Mumbai. I married a woman whose parents live there, so I'll be making regular visits for the foreseeable future and would like to find someone to make me some suits/shirts/pants. My in laws live on the IIT campus, so they're toward the north of the city. If I could...

    Acceptable Business Briefcases

     Well you might want to consider upgrading the shoes before going for the $600 briefcase. :)

    travel shoe for south america

     I think that is one reason why a lot of the suggestions in this thread aren't super practical. If you're not going to wearing them most of the time (he seems to like to actually travel in chucks) it's a pain ********** to pack and carry heavy boots. At least it is for me. i usually...

    travel shoe for south america

    Are you going to be hiking in these much or are you mostly going to be using these as your nicer, going out shoes? I love the look of leather soles on boots, but I haven't been very comfortable the few times I've done light hikes in them. I much prefer a less stylish but more functionally...

    A Short Shell Cordovan Sob Story, or Why Calfskin is About to Make a Comeback in My Closet!

    Guys! I got my car's body paneling made out of shell, but when I run the RPMs way past the redline, I still have problems with the engine? Isn't shell supposed to be indestructible?

    The Watch Appreciation Thread (Reviews and Photos of Men's Timepieces by Rolex, Patek Philippe, Brei

     While the Bell and Ross isn't really my cup of tea either and I rather like Grand Seikos, it seems bad form to come in, give some harsh criticism then answer a question about your watches with one that you don't even own. If you were named for an animated character, I'm not sure it's...

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Beckel Canvas Bag I like it. Is the hardware on the strap plastic? If they had these in medium tan I'd definitely pick it up, though as this is cotton canvas, I guess I could dye it but I doubt I'd be that motivated.

    The Expendables - As close to astronomically epic win as a movie gets

    Did you guys see the scene where Terry Crews was running down the hall placing the explosives on the columns as a homage to the scene in The Dirty Dozen where Jim Brown runs across the open ground dropping grenades?

    Slim french cuff shirts

    I think the Brooks Brothers extra slim fit line has some shirts with french cuffs. The ESF is pretty slim, though if you want more taper you could always get the last inch or two taken in.

    The definitive SF-approved non-baller sneaker thread

    Unless there was an event in those two weeks that he really wanted the shoes for and would have been willing to pay a slightly higher price somewhere else if they had been clear on the shipping time. I've done that with things before.

    The definitive SF-approved non-baller sneaker thread

    Great find. Is there any consensus on sizing for these, say compared to Chucks or something? (cue chrono menstrual tantrum about sizing questions) I'd go for the largest size you generally wear. I bought a pair of Number 5's in 11 (I usually wear 11 or 11.5) and a pair of Albin's in 11.5 and...

    The definitive SF-approved non-baller sneaker thread

    Those have been on sale for a while, I copped golden Albin's like 3 weeks back. That being said, if the silver albins are around in my size for much longer I might have to cop as well. 6pm often has a good number of PF Flyers on sale, but this was the lowest I've seen some of them. If people...

    The definitive SF-approved non-baller sneaker thread

    I'm trying to decide between the wrinkled silver and the perforated silver. Think I'm gonna try a pair of Glides too. I'm deciding whether I want to pick up a pair of perforated silver's. I have a pair of plum wrinkled leather Albin's now and love them. I like the look and they are super...

    Speaking of good deals, 6pm has tons of PF Flyer styles on sale for $20-35.

    important but casual party in 2 weeks what to wear?

    Gonna be meeting all of my fiances family so I want to dress to impress BUT they are working class and I don't want to come off looking like a tool. So I think I will stick with blue jeans and maybe some brown drivers. Not sure what shirt to wear but want to stay away from polos. Probably gonna...

    Conservative Suit for Law Firm Interviews -- BB or an Alternative?

    If you live near a Saks Off Fifth/Nordstrom's Rack/Century 21 you might stop in and see if they have anything like Hickey Freeman or Hart Schaffner Marx suits in the style you're looking for. It might be hard as you wear a fairly common size and are looking for a solid color, but you might get...

    The Official "What is Beckham Wearing" Thread

    Ha ha... It floors me when this question gets asked about such generic looking stuff. It would be different if there were something special about those swim trunks. But you could get something just like them anywhere, even Target or Walmart. WTF. Hey, what brand are those crutches? and that leg...

    Brooks Brothers Semi-Annual Sale

    Prices on shirts are pretty good. 3 for 159 comes out to $53 each - not going to do much better than that. Suits on the other hand you can get for cheaper. Be careful not to put in a corporate discount though. I tried it and they charged me more. They just gave me the corporate discount from...
