    A Big Vote For Isaia and Miscellany

    I've always been a fan of Isaia, maybe because their standard "Base S" fits me like bespoke, maybe because they're usually a lot cheaper than their Neapolitan cousins. Even Gianluca, the red-headed stepchild of the brand which is usually sneered at on this forum, offers beautiful fabrics and cut...

    Tie Width Wimp

    I bought the pictured tie from eBay. It was advertised as 3.5” but when I unwrapped it, the tie turned out to be 3.75”. Horrors! Only a barbarian would wear such a thing, right? But I really like the tie. Colors, pattern, very nice weight and feel. Is the .25” a game ender? (3.5” being...

    Construction Questions

    I just undertook an agonizing reappraisal of my suits and jackets. It was past time to admit that I’m not going to diet my way into this suit. Time to declare that jacket obsolete. Maybe my brother can use the other one. Truth be told, I’m working remotely half the time and when I’m in the...

They'll just think that it's a...

    I'm going to a wedding in Napa Valley in November. "Country chic" or some such nonsense. I like to think that I'm a tough guy but the stripes and the plaid give me pause. Although the process of taking and posting these pictures has made me more confident. Still, it's bold. I don't think that...

    Attolini and Barbera

    I discovered therealreal.com a few months back. With Century 21 closed, I’m still able to dress far above my station in life. My first purchase from TRR way s a pure cashmere jacket from Dominoco Vacca, made by Cesare Attolini. Easy conclusions to reach because they both have tags sewn all...

    Loro Piana

    Who makes Loro Piana blazers? Can you tell me anything about them, the construction, the tick stitching, anything? I'm looking at a Zelander (made of wool from New Zealand) and it seems to have very obvious, machine made tick stitching. Maybe it's just old. But I'm grateful for any for any...
