    Vintage Ray Ban Expert

    Does anyone have or know where to find spare parts for a pair of old B&L Ray Ban Wayfarers (5024, tortoise, does not have the L2053 markings)? My sis gave me her old pair a while back and I cracked the right temple / arm and have been gutted ever since. I tried checking ebay but those are all...

    Suitsupply NYC

     Thanks, I ordered the navy based off of your review. I was looking for something chunky and the pictures made it look like a lightweight knit, good to hear otherwise. Do you happen to have any other knits from them? I'm wondering how the merino wool will hold up over time with regards to...

    Suitsupply NYC

    Anyone tried their knitwear? Interested in one of their shawl cardigans from this season (I believe they came in burgundy, olive and navy) but would like to know how thick / what gauge they are and how they hold up over time. I believe the material is merino wool.

    SNS Herning- fits?

    I think mine's from 2010 or something and it's also all wool. I wonder how the new merino blend fares in comparison to the old 100% virgin wool. Also, it might just be me but I remember checking out a Stark from a year or two ago and it felt thinner and lighter. Pic of the newer collar with...

    SNS Herning- fits?

    Just read through a few dozen pages trying to find out about this "new fit" Stark. I've got an old sea blue one in size medium from several years ago and am looking to pickup a new one in dark navy. As far as I can tell the differences are: 1) Merino blend, and merino on the inside collar 2)...

    new Yoox codes and sales - post them here

     Using both the -10 or the 1/2 chest methods give that size, but as the sizes get bigger they deviate more. Referring to this thread here: http://www.askandyaboutclothes.com/forum/showthread.php?48883-European-suit-sizing Still not sure which is the right way.

    new Yoox codes and sales - post them here

    So on Yoox, many of the items are listed in Italian sizes. Most size charts seem to go by the -10 rule (IT 54 = US 44) but I've also read that IT 54 is half the chest size in cm, so 108 cm = 42.5" or approximately a US 42 to US 43. That's quite a bit of difference between the two methods, so...

    new Yoox codes and sales - post them here

     Interesting, so items are constantly moved in and out of clearance. I wonder how many seasons old the item I'm looking at is. It's too bad about the final sale policy, there are quite a few items I like but unwilling to buy due to sizing concerns. I'll take a look at jet.com but I'm in...

    Guys, are clearance items always final sale? Do prices get lower at all or is an additional 20% off coupon about as good as it gets?

    new Yoox codes and sales - post them here

     The inaccurate sizing and final sale terms on some items are exactly why I'm hesitating on making a purchase. Does Italian sizing run true to size? ITA 50 = US 40 or maybe 42?

    new Yoox codes and sales - post them here

     Read some horror stories about Yoox customer service. Let's say you order something and it's defective (or used and stained, missing buttons, etc.) and final sale. Do they make an exception, or are you stuck with it?

    Ask me about Eyewear!

     Thanks man, I'll probably get a pair of these. Oddly enough, Dita customer service told me the titanium eyewire is actually pretty delicate and to make sure I get ultra thin lenses. They sure feel sturdy as hell. Also, there's a newer statesman three which looks pretty damn nice and is a...

     Assuming the nose pads are adjusted properly, how's the comfort after wearing them all day? ******** dents?

    Ask me about Eyewear!

    Unfortunately, a lot of the places around here have very little selection and only carry one of each frame but yeah I definitely agree, the 4 brands are all really nice. Dita seems to be the most sturdy but also noticeably heavier on the nose bridge so I'm wondering if anyone here has...

    Ask me about Eyewear!

    Thanks guys, I checked out Oliver Peoples and Barton Perreira and they do seem to be well made but many of the frames I liked were a bit too small for my face. I also came across the Dita Statesman which seemed bulletproof but a little heavy. I was surprised by how decent they looked but I'm...

    Ask me about Eyewear!

    I'm looking at getting some new frames and I'm really liking some of the ones from Salt Optics, Barton Perreira and Oliver Peoples. Can anyone comment on the quality and durability (hinges, material) of these brands? Salt seems to be highly regarded, not sure about Barton or Oliver Peoples...

    Ask me about Eyewear!

     Really good info man, thanks. The other thing is the different AR and AS coatings, is there really a difference between Zeiss Super ET, Gold ET, Crizal Avance, Sapphire, Seiko Super Hydro, etc? I just want something durable that won't be all scratched and peeling in a few years

    Ask me about Eyewear!

     Thanks for getting back to me on this. I'm starting to realize that a lot of places are selling HD lenses that aren't really free form. What should I look out for? A lot of the smaller optical stores do sell free form lenses and I'm assuming they get them from a lab, but how do I know...

    The Uniqlo Thread

     Aren't the website measurements pretty accurate? The flannel measurements don't seem to have changed at all (I have a flannel from about 4 years ago and it measures the same as on their chart).
