    Apparently Alfred Sargent is not doing made-to-measure anymore. Does anyone know anything more about this? This is a disturbing development...

    Suggestion for Black Shoe for Going Out?

    My budget would be $600.00 or so. I would like rubber soles, although am not opposed to leather soles. I live in Phoenix, so worrying about overshoes isn't much of a concern. I am looking for something I could wear with jeans and maybe nice chinos at night, although I typically wouldn't wear tan...

    Suggestion for Black Shoe for Going Out?

    As I get older, I find myself wanting something a little better, more elegant, hip, whatever than black Doc Martens in the evening on dates, gallery showings, bars, etc. I don't want something too dressy, but more adult than Docs. College is over. :brick: Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Do you recognise this suit / brand / photoshoot?

    That's just a slim-fitting tan-colored cotton suit. Brooks Brothers, Paul Stuart, and Ralph Lauren make several just like it every summer. As for the tie, it's a knit tie, and one can be had from any number of makers, but I recommend Howard Yount.

    Is this normal?

    That's a split waistband and it is usually considered a mark of finer tailoring, although it is becoming more ubiquitous.

    The Allen Edmonds MTO Thread

    I don't see that Paul is casting anyone to be a villain. It seems that he was merely trying to explain, in an honest fashion, why. The state of affairs as it presently exists cannot continue.

    What to wear to the Belmont Stakes (tomorrow!)

     85 is hardly hot. In fact, it's sufficiently cool to wear a suit. My perspective may be skewed as I live in Phoenix.

    Board of Directors dinner. Thoughts?

    Do not wear black trousers with brown shoes. My suggestion would be a dark suit, white shirt, no tie.

    Need advice on this suit I plan to buy

    Under no circumstances should you buy it or any other suit from Men's Wearhouse.

    need help finding this blazer/jacket

    It's not at all a blazer, more of a jacket. Try the Streetwear & Denim forum.

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    Paisley Lined Suits

    Various menswear brands will, at times, make a suit that is lined with a paisley cloth. The only such suit I have is one of The Clotherie's house suits, but that was a 2011 model.

    Brogue for work and street wear

    Try Crockett & Jones, Alfred Sargent, or Herring Shoes instead. The shoes will be of a much better quality for a similar price point.

    Express Fit but Better Quality

    Have you tried Brooks Brothers' extra slim fit? You may also like Kamakura's Tokyo slim fit. As for trousers, only wear wool dress slacks.

    Help me find long things

    Any place that can do a made to measure suit should be able to do made to measure khakis and casual jackets. If budget is an issue, try Kent Wang or MyTailor.

    Tie and Pocket Square for Blue Suit

    Wear the white shirt, along with a wedding tie (black / white / grey in a small pattern such as glen plaid or shepherd's check, see kentwang.com), and a white linen pocket square.
