    Pocket squares - where do you guys *really* get them?

    I know there probably have been a few threads like this already, but this one is a bit more specific. The creative use of pocket squares in the WAYW threads can really dazzle me, but with such a variety, I often wonder: Where are you guys getting these things? I simply cannot afford to buy a...

    Alternatives to Clarks at a similar price point?

    I want to get some chukkas but I find Clarks to be way too uncomfortable for me. Do you guys know of any alternatives at a similar price range (could go as high as $200 if need be)?

    Cleaning Sperry's?

    I've developed a few unsightly scuffs on my Sperry's. The site recommends Kiwi, but I've heard that this drys the shoes out, and I've tried it before and it seemed ineffective. What do you guys use to keep your Sperry's in shape?

    Boot recommendations

    Since I'm currently overweight, my jeans tend to be a relaxed fit and look poor with slender shoes (loafers, wingtips, etc.), so I think it'd be a good idea to get a pair of boots. I was originally planning to get the Red Wing GT, but now I'm starting to think they're a bit too pricey for me...

    Alternatives to the AE Calhoun chukka?

    I'm considering buying the AE Calhoun, but I'm wondering if there are any better alternatives at a similar price point (preferably sub-$170). Any ideas?

    Loafer fit (for moccasin construction only)?

    I recently ordered the AE Everett. Since I wasn't sure which size I would need, I ordered them in two different sizes: 8.5E and 8.5EEE. Both shoes seem to fit me well enough in length, but I'm uncertain about the width. The 8.5EEE definitely feels better initially. It better accommodates the...

    Problems with Kent Wang squares - solutions?

    I ordered three pocket squares from Kent Wang a few months back after seeing some recommendations on the forums, but I'm having some problems. Since the pocket squares are smaller than usual (12x12), they fall down in my pocket after only a few minutes of movement. For instance, when I finish...

    How is the 7-last for Allen Edmonds?

    I'm considering buying the AE Westchester loafer, but I've never tried on any AEs on the 7-last. I take an 8.5EEE in the McClain (8-last), but that shoe runs really long and seems to be narrow. In Sperry's, I take a 9E, and my foot measures somewhere between an 8.5 and 9. Do you guys think I'd...

    AE Everett

    Since this shoe is on sale for $99, I'm considering buying it. Do you guys have any experience with this shoe? How does it rank in terms of comfort (particularly arch support)? Anything else I should know? Finally, how does it size? I take an 8.5EEE in the McClain (8-last), so I'm wondering if...

    Which AE loafers?

    I'm considering buying a pair of penny loafers during the AE tent sale, but I have no experience with AE loafers and could use some input. On the list of seconds, the only penny loafers I see available in my size are the Walden and the Everett. The former is nearly double the price of the...

    Cheap linen sports coat for summer wear?

    I'm looking for a cheap linen sports coat to wear during the summer. I've heard good things about H&M, but there's only one local store, and they don't carry any. I went into Macy's and they only had the following sports coat in khaki on sale for $36. I purchased it, but I can always return it...

    Shoe damage and when/when not to wear shoes

    Before I knew about the value of AE discontinued models/seconds, I bought a pair of SAS penny loafers in an attempt to save a little money. (New AE loafers cost about $300, and I got the SAS shoes for $180--a step above Sebago.) I was visiting a college to see a conference, and my hotel was...

    Protecting hearing with MP3 players

    I use an MP3 player when I go to the gym, and I often find myself turning up the volume to drown out outside noises (such as the radio I don't want to listen to). I've read that MP3 players can cause permanent hearing damage at high enough levels, so I want to be more careful for now on. Which...

    Thrifting while in NY?

    I'm going to New York City tomorrow to see a play, and I thought it'd be a nice idea to check out some thrift stores and get myself sized for Allen-Edmonds while I'm there. (If you've seen my "do these shoes fit" thread, I'm going to get a AE salesman's opinion before I make my final...

    Do these shoes fit?

    I received my AE McClain's today and they look amazing, but I'm not totally sure about the fit. My feet measure between an 8.5 and a 9 (one foot is slightly bigger than the other), and I take a 9E in Sperry boat shoes. I tried the McClain on in a store in a 8.5E, and it was still too narrow, so...

    Which pocket squares for starting out for my "wadrobe"

    I want to buy three pocket squares from kentwang.com, but I can't decide which ones to get. I really like the blue pocket square with the dragon design and the white vine pocket square. But this one is also pretty cool. The goal is to get two pocket squares in silk and one in linen. I want one...

    Question for drink/wine connoisseurs.

    I just turned 21, but I'm not celebrating my birthday for another week or two. Now that I can legally drink, I thought it would be interesting to start a drink collection that I'll have for later down the road; this might be a nice present to ask for from my parents or something. I like beer and...

    Alternatives to the faux hawk

    I hate to make another "hair style" thread, but I don't believe this specific topic has come up before. After searching around the forums, the consensus seems to be that the "faux hawk" hairstyle is hard to pull off and makes most men look like douche-bags. However, I have...

    Loafer maintence

    I recently bought a pair of SAS loafers, and since they are now discontinued, I want to make sure I maintain these loafers for a long while before I need to buy another pair. First, what general maintenance should I do to ensure that they stay in top shape? I've been using the inserts to keep...

    Anyone else find Clarks DB uncomfortable?

    I was looking into getting some new shoes since I've been wearing the same pair of sneakers for a while now. I looked around the various threads, and Clarks Desert Boots seemed to be a favorite. I ordered a pair last week and recently got them in the mail. I just tried them on, and maybe it's...
