    Overshoes

    Good afternoon, all! I am down here in Houston and it's starting to get into the rainy season, so I figured this might be a good time (well... a little late, but...) to ask about good overshoes for dress shoes... if anyone has suggestions (I've yet to find any that are "dressy"/aren't ugly), I...

    TLB MALLORCA - OFFICIAL AFFILIATE THREAD - Advice, sizing and reviews

    Hey! I've been looking at picking up a pair of shoes from TLB and just wanted to know if anyone could give some advice on sizing. The two brands of shoe that I have currently are Allen Edmonds (size 10.5) and CNES (size 45) (both are in wide) and these both seem to fit fairly well. I'm guessing...

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

    That's very interesting. What's your general opinion of alpaca wool? I've read a decent bit about it, but haven't had a chance to handle it myself. Also, are there any good ones in production still? I've seen the ones in the VBC HOPE line, but not too much else...

    MyTailor (Hemrajani Bros.) Appreciation/Discussion Thread

    I remember there being a... I believe it was a New Year's sale... last year, but I don't know whether it's a recurring thing or just one-off.

    Minimum order is technically four, but they are sometimes willing to do fewer (i.e., they were for my first order, but I can't guarantee that for everyone).

    No - I didn't mean to imply you did.

    That's very impressive... but I wouldn't tell a new customer to expect that.

    MyTailor (Hemrajani Bros.) Appreciation/Discussion Thread

    I've done six shirts and one suit so far with them, I believe, over the past three or four years. Technically, minimum first order for shirts is four, I believe, but they were willing to waive that for me. Semi-bespoke is an individual/new pattern, as opposed to merely an altered pattern with...

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

    Exactly. Most of Fox's cloth selection is very expensive... I think their covert cloth is over $300/m, and their coating isn't much cheaper...

    Interesting. What do you recommend instead of Fox for flannels?

    What?! Don't tell me this! You'll make me want to buy up a ton of fabrics that I don't have the money to commission into anything...

    MyTailor (Hemrajani Bros.) Appreciation/Discussion Thread

    They have a select few in the 400s range, but not quite what I'm looking for. Also, at least one of two around 500 would be nice for winter/country.

    MyTailor (Hemrajani Bros.) Appreciation/Discussion Thread

    Honestly, I like their shirting options -- a lot more than any of their competitors, at least. I wish they had heavier suiting options, though -- I'm to the point of researching fabrics to source on my own and give them for suits/trousers/vests. The only thing I wish they had as far as shirting...

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

    Any chance someone knows of a roughly 50-50 cotton-wool flannel (shirting) - along the lines of the old Viyella - in production? Thanks!

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

    Thank you, but as I read it, HE Box's Melton wool is 590gsm, which is winter suit weight (or topcoat, at best) as far as I'm concerned. I'm specifically looking for coating, which I expect to be over 900gsm. They do list a cavalry twill at 990gsm under their Country Range (along with a similar...

    Maida's Bespoke Footwear - Houston, TX

    Does anyone have any experience with this cobbler? https://www.maidas.com/ I've been in Houston... over two years now, I think, and only just realized I pass by one of their locations all the time. I figured I should ask about them on the off-chance that someone here has experience with them...

    MyTailor (Hemrajani Bros.) Appreciation/Discussion Thread

    Good afternoon, all. Has anyone here used Divij for overcoats (I guess this can include the topcoats they have listed on their site, but moreso proper overcoats)? If so, how was the process of commissioning it and how did it turn out? Thanks!

    A question on the history of double-breasted suits and coats

    Hmm... this would seem to indicate that the purely decorative/functionless buttons did exist at the outset, though admittedly, one would forgive a painter for missing some finer details, so it might not be entirely conclusive... very interesting, though -- thank you for the images!

    A question on the history of double-breasted suits and coats

    Good afternoon, all! I have a whole host of questions on hand to ask, but I'll try to space them out a bit... first up is about double-breasted suits and coats. Was it ever the case for both columns (left and right) of buttons to be functional? I would for some reason find it rather odd if the...
