    Cucinelli vs. Borrelli

    I concur with the sediment of the thread - Borrelli seems to be at a overall higher appreciation curve, although I dislike the overall ostentatious styling from them both at times. I've got a few pieces of both; mostly cashmere sweaters from BC and trousers from Borrelli - which I think is the...

    Can/Should I try to lose 10 lbs in 45 days?

    Why is eating oatmeal in the morning important? I never eat breakfast. Isn't eating nothing better than eating something when it comes to bodyweight? Nothing magic about oatmeal itself, although oats and milk are some of the most nutritious foods out there, add some berries and/or fruits and...

    i said then you have the very elegantly created chukka dress boots, that in my mind, are the apex of elegance in bootwear with formal dress. dude, thin ice. Beware.

    Denim Style pockets on dress trousers

    Interesting choice of words. I like them on odd trousers and khaki's (GetSmart just barfed), would no get suit pants with them. I concur. IIRC they were first utilized by carriage drivers.

    Cheap Shoes too Shiny

    I ripped the plasticky finish off a pair of Bostonians with acetone and built it back up with shoe cream, polish and conditioner. They are now decent looking (but not great). Make sure you're wearing gloves when you're using the acetone. I did not and my fingertips on my right hand are still...

    Tapered trousers getting caught on socks and wrinkling behind the knee

    Sounds like they're too tapered. OTC socks won't make a difference since it's the fabrics rubbing against each other, just like with the sleeves in an unlined tweed jacket. Maybe you're better off not wearing socks at all. At least that's my experience.

    Men caring less and less about good shoes?

    Most men just don't understand that a $500 shoe last more than 5x longer than a $100 shoe. I know I didn't understand this when I was 25. To them, if all shoes last 2 years anyway, they are gonna buy the $100 one. Sadly, this is quite true.

    Interior Design

    I like the architectural details -- but I couln't live with most of the furniture items in this thread. As far as antiques go, I can't stand Victorian furniture ...but I do love 17th and 18th century fine English and French furniture. I'm quite fond of the same era. Modern interior design...

    Light-weight (9-oz) Flannel Suit

    I'm going to do a 7.5/8oz from Fox this summer. Road test for Fall. Light flannels are really different from the heavier stuff. I'd have thought you'd be really attracted to lighter stuff ( sort of going with the soft Italian tailoring mystique) My only gripe with lightweight flannels is the...

    The mafoofan and Thom Browne philosophies are not too unlike.

    But he markets the short pants as being definitive of his look, whether the wearer actually hem them that short or not. True, but then the same goes for the short jackets both in sleeves and body, as far as trademarks I mean.
