    Opinions on this jacket?

    I have been eying this jacket...What are your opinions fellas? Anyone own one or have heard of this company? Spiewak make decent, relatively inexpensive outerwear. I nearly ended up with a duffel coat of theirs last winter but the deal didn't work out. That particular jacket, the lapels bug me...

    (Old) What Are You Wearing Now/Today? Part II - pictures only - no discussion

    I really like the coat, but it just seems weird to see broken in denim on top of raw denim. This is only my opinion and some might disagree, but until the jeans and the jacket have the same patina i think I would wear them separately like i said though, really cool pieces. I agree, but even...

    weird shoe sizing on J. Crew's website: "h-m" or "m"??

    Naw, I just miscopied. The "20%" figure shows up in the fine print text of the email too, so there's no weird image shenanigans going on at their end.

    woot shirt

    shirt.woot uses AA: Please check American Apparel's sizing chart for men or for women before you order. The Woot Tee, constructed by American Apparel, follows their classic closer-fitting style. If you prefer a baggier look, order a larger size. If there is not a larger size, consider starting...

    weird shoe sizing on J. Crew's website: "h-m" or "m"??

    They're also having a 15% discount promotion on anything that you buy in-store if you use a J.Crew card now through this Sunday. You should be able to get that on catalog orders if you have a sales associate place the order for you. Also, code PSALE07 at checkout will get you 25% off any...

    GUESS by Marciano.

    Guess always has a bunch of casual button-up shirts that would be awesome (at least at outlet prices) had they not screen-printed random spots with all sorts of Bavarian or techno crap. The number of times I've looked around in a Guess outlet only to find a great shirt ruined by a stupid print...

    joe fresh canada

    Where are the stores? In Vancouver, the store locater lists only Canadian Tire locations. In Ontario it's all in Loblaws and Superstore grocery-plus stores. Even the store locator itself is in the presidentschoice.ca domain. Sure you didn't misread "Great Canadian Superstore"? One Loblaws here...

    Boots on a budget

    ^^^ Those look pretty ugly and clunky, in my opinion. I'd go for desert boots instead. I actually started out on zappos looking for desert boots, but at least the Clarks desert boots were a bit too unclunky. I might try to find a happy medium, and I haven't seen those in person yet. But I think...

    Puffy Vest Recommendations

    On the off chance that the stripes aren't an absolute necessity: I just picked up this down-filled vest at the local Lands' End ministore in Sears yesterday. Down for $25, can't go wrong with that. The weight is good, no Michelin Man problem and could probably flatten down enough to layer with...

    Boots on a budget

    I wore a pair of blundstones nearly every day for about 18 months, whether it was at work, outside, whatever. They are remarkably durable. I've replaced the insoles a few times, and the leather has gotten a bit scuffed and worn, but there is barely any wear on the soles. They're great boots, I...

    Looking for good recomendations for OTTAWA, Canada

    Went well. Two pairs of pants shortened and a sportcoat taken in and sleeves shortened for $40. Results are good. He paid close attention to what I was asking for with the jacket, too, even noticing that the shirt I was wearing that day was a bit short in the sleeves when I was telling him how...

    Bergdorf Goodwill Megasale 1/3: Ties, belts, braces, miscellany.

    Clearly there is an issue here. Is there a way we can get him to respond to us? My last PM was on the 28th of August, I see that he logged in on the 29th, so he must have got it. Has not been online since. I'm wondering how many other people from his mega-sale have been duped. Where it tells...

    Fellow member working at HARRY ROSEN...come say hello!

    Thats funny - I get the complete opposite treatment. Its like I almost have to plead for service. Being a young guy means I usually get treated like a penny less vagrant. I get the "you can't possibly afford this so don't waste my time" look. Hah! I went into Harry Rosen here in Ottawa (which...

    Stop Dressing Like a Freshman/Dad Jeans/Sporty Sunglasses

    Yes.. and worn one inch too large at the waist and two inches too short. I see this look on my Thursday/Friday afternoon flights home. The "casual" look of business travelers is so typical. Oversized, gold-buttoned blazer Polo with some industry related embroidery and sleeves past the elbow...

    Opinions on this suit for first internship

    I just researched Duhnill suits on this site and it turns out that many of the guys here have had bad experiences with the ones that are made in Japan. I guess I should have taken 2 minutes and looked it up before I bought it. Many people here have much higher standards than you because...

    Stop Dressing Like a Freshman/Dad Jeans/Sporty Sunglasses

    You guys are all talking about the inside edge of the Dad Jeans line. The problem is that the guys wearing Dad Jeans aren't on that inside edge, more like this:

    Recommend me some shoe brands.

    I've been to Belleville many times (a bud went to Loyalist and we had to party it up there) - are you sure the average mature customer there has the kind of money or the desire to spend even $200 on shoes. One advantage of a proprietorship-sized business is that you get a bit more flexibility...

    Recommend me some shoe brands.

    Out of curiosity, why is your father taking the store more in the business dress direction? As a person who prefers dressing this way, I applaud it. But, as a person who sees the overall market moving in a more casual direction, it seems somewhat counterintuitive. I can't speak for him, but from...
