    ***Finally an Official Baller sneaker thread ($300 minimum)***

    Looking at getting a couple CPs; have read mixed advice about whether or not to size down. I wear a 12.5 in Nike and 45 in pretty much everything else. Should I stick with 45 or size down to 44?

    The Definitive MANBAG Thread, Part II: 2014~

     I think pebbled or naturally grained leather is the best combination of durability, feel, and all-weather capability. Examples of this on the high end would are Hermes' clemence and togo leathers and Vuitton's premium "taurillon" bags. They repel water, are flexible in most applications...

    The Definitive MANBAG Thread, Part II: 2014~

    While on the topic of briefcases: this very nice Valextra is 50% off at The Corner. It's not a perfect bag (stiff textured leathers are not my favorite, and dark brown is, IMO, more challenging to pair than a lighter caramel shade or black) but at $1,230, I would consider this well-bought for a...

    The Definitive MANBAG Thread, Part II: 2014~

     Longchamp, T. Anthony, and even Polo RL make some nice-looking nylon/canvas briefs under $500. I no first-hand experience with any of them, though.

    The Definitive MANBAG Thread, Part II: 2014~

     I'm glad you found something you like. None of the options look particularly "beach-y" though: I probably would've spec'd a made-to-order LL Bean tote for around $60.

    The Definitive MANBAG Thread, Part II: 2014~

     I can't really think of an attractive, good-quality canvas bag at a Filson pricepoint. Jack Spade comes to mind, but the quality is meh. Buy something well-made that speaks to you; I wouldn't pick a brand first and then insist upon choosing something from it. BV looks/feels nothing like...

    The Definitive MANBAG Thread, Part II: 2014~

     Trying to justify the price of designer anything is a fool's errand. The actual cost of materials/production labor is such a minimal part of the final retail price that you'll never be satisfied if you're truly a "value" shopper. Some of the leather goods brands featured here or over in the...

    Dunhill Black Calfskin Breast Pocket Wallet; Made in France

    Great French calfskin wallet from Dunhill. Great quality, with impeccable stitching and glazing: I've owned some very expensive leather goods including Hermes and this measures up to any of them. Very hard-wearing, has some nicks and wear marks from card slots but presents very well. Six card...

    The Definitive MANBAG Thread, Part II: 2014~

     The Tumis are nice. Varvatos, Spade, Fossil look cheap, wouldn't spend $350 on Vince Camuto, and Ben Minkoff bags are decent-looking but not very substantial in person. I would be happy with either of the Tumis. They're a bit above what you're looking to spend, but Coach is a solid option...

    The Definitive MANBAG Thread, Part II: 2014~

     Don't get me wrong- overall, I'd still give Jil a 7/10. It's a definite step up from similarly-priced Ferragamo, Prada, Tod's, or Givenchy. Love the Plume; it comes in a travel size as well. Another great ziptop brief option from Hermes is the Victoria 12h: The second looks more...

    The Definitive MANBAG Thread, Part II: 2014~

    I have this messenger from a few years ago; leather is nice and thick, it's well-made, and has been durable with pretty heavy use. The hardware is a bit chunky and generic, and the there are a few places where the glazing on the leather edge has worn off; neither are things you'd expect in a...
