    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

     How about the medium travel bag or the sportsman's bag? For a dslr I'm thinking the briefcase form factor isn't the best.

    Peal & Company Brooks Brothers Shoes

    I have a pair of these monk straps. It looks like they are made by C&J. Since they're Peal-branded, does anyone know if I can send them to C&J for re-soling/recrafting, or is it better to send them to B. Nelson?

    What can I wear with these loafers?

    I would stick to jeans or chinos with those because they are so casual.

    New Brioni SC - to keep or not to keep? (pics)

    It also looks like there's something very funky going on with the shoulders. I think you can do better for EUR 740.

    Herring Shoes - Experiences?

    They were very helpful on the phone responding to my question about sizing for a pair of Loake Eton loafers, and delivery took 2 days to the U.S. I was very very happy.

    Looking for a fall/spring jacket for wear without a suit/sportcoat

    Hello all, As the title says, I'm looking for a nice fall jacket to wear on my commute to work on days when I'm not wearing a suit or sportcoat. When I am wearing a suit, I'll just wear my raincoat. So I'm looking for something more casual and perhaps slightly warmer than my raincoat. People...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Can anyone comment on the Pullman vs. the Medium Travel Bag as a carry-on for business and other travel? I'm thinking about something that will fit 2 suits, 2 pairs of shoes, 4-5 shirts, toiletries, etc. My concerns are: Do people find that both bags fit into overhead bins and the carry-on...

    Brooks Brothers return policy change, September 2012

     I think if the tags are on and it is in resalable condition, there's no harm in returning something just because when you got home and had more time to try the item on, you decided it didn't work for you after all. Stores want you to do this, because in the end knowing you can return...

    Brooks Brothers return policy change, September 2012

     I'm not sure I understand your point here - you agree that returning $4k in NOS stuff from the 1970s is abusing the policy, but you think they shouldn't do anything about it because of their customer service commitment. I think the modified policy is appropriate given the price point they...

    Brooks Brothers return policy change, September 2012

     The thing is, a loyal customer does not bring years-old merchandise to the store expecting a refund. A liberal return policy on merchandise that "just isn't wearing well" only works if customers respect the intent behind the policy - to do right by the customer where the merchandise is...

    Quilted jackets, brands and fits

    There are a few other Barbour models that are more tailored. Try to find a shop with a broader selection.

    Where can I buy wool dress pants without paying $250 retail?

    Interesting that your pants wore out in 2 years. That seems quite fast given 1 wear per week.

    Does anyone own this Luxire collar?

     Thanks very much. Theresa at Luxire said she'd like to make some adjustments to the armhole on future orders, but I really do think they did a good job copying the original shirt. And just to be fair to Luxire, other shirtmakers have told me the original shirt was oddly made - very tight...

    Does anyone own this Luxire collar?

    Here's the photo. I stand corrected on the fit - it's not too bad for a first shirt. I think I will only need a few tweaks going forward.

    Does anyone own this Luxire collar?

    Hi all. This is my shirt - it was copied from a shirt that was made for me by a traveling tailor operation based out of London called Whitcomb & Shadftesbury. Unfortunately, I think the Luxire copy will be too small in the chest for some reason, but I haven't had a chance to try it on since it...

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    I went to the Madison Ave store today after work. The service was awful. I am not one to be fussy about that sort of thing but it is very off-putting to see two salespeople get snippy with each other over the commission on your sale.
