    Does B&S seem slow to you lately?

    I've been talking to some other sellers and everyone has noticed a drop in activity. Does B&S have sales cycles? I have a few suits I'd like to list, but would rather not post it during a slow season and then do continual price drops until I get robbed. For older sellers here - are there hot...

    V-neck sweater with small opening

    Feel like this might get a better response in SWD, so I'm cross posting here. I'm looking for v-neck sweaters that have a small neck opening. Can anyone recommend any? Extra points for whoever can recommend a maker who offers such sweaters in lambswool. Also, please don't bother...

    Biggest after-Christmas sales (2010)?

    Let's talk about after Christmas sales. Who has some intel? I'll start - I've heard that winter season stuff at BB will be around 50% off this year. Heard from an SA, but I kind of doubted it still since they just did that huge 40% off 7-day sale promotion. RL doesn't seem to have much...

    What the hell? Do you know what you're talking about?

    http://www.valetmag.com/style/profil...le-results.php Wear a bow tie and go sockless, but don't dress prep? These answers make no sense.

    Help me choose a color for a MTM shetland sweater

    I'm getting a MTM shetland sweater made by Spirit of Shetland. Out of the hundreds of shetland yarns they can knit this thing out of, I've narrowed it down to two - Rye and Storm. I can't decide between the two, so I'd like to throw it to the forum. Whichever one gets the most votes will be...

    Where to shop in San Francisco

    I mainly spend my time in the MC forum, but I've developed a nascent interest in some SWD stuff. Curious on where some of you guys shop in San Francisco (besides MAC, Saks, Barneys, and Self Edge). I have this weekend free and would like to go browse. Also, nothing in the mall please.

    How to take care of a shaggy dog

    I just bought my first shaggy dog sweater. This thing seems a bit delicate and I'm afraid of just stuffing it into my sweater drawers, as I suspect the nap will get frizzed out. Is there a proper way of storing and taking care of these? Can I pile other sweaters on top of it?

    Black Friday

    Black Friday is coming up, and in San Francisco, it's a damn madhouse. I went once and got so frustrated at the crowds that I wonder if it's even worth it this year. Thus, some questions: 1. Is it better to just wait for after Christmas sales? 2. Anyone know who puts on worthwhile Black Friday...

    White film developing on black plastic glasses?

    Not sure if this is best posted here, so please let me know if I should move this thread. I have a pair of Shuron Ronsir glasses. They're browlines with black plastic for most of the frame. About three months ago, I've noticed that a white film has been developing on the plastic, almost as...

    Getting custom sweater - how slim should it be?

    I'm getting a custom made sweater through Spirit of Shetland. I'd like this to be a perfect fit, but am unsure how slim I should make the measurements. My understanding is that slim blazers tend to be the chest measurement plus two inches. Should this also be the case for sweaters, or should...

    Sleek chukka that is not Tetbury

    I recently bought a pair of Alfred Sargent Havant chukkas, and don't think they're as sleek as I'd like them to be. I'd like to find a sleeker pair, but something that's not as pointy as the C&J Tetburys. Suggestions on other sleek chukkas? I'd like to get something in between the Havants (89...
