    Black Lapel or Proper Suit?

     How much extra is the full canvas for Black Lapel?

    Black Lapel or Proper Suit?

    Another +1 for Proper Suit. I'm not a big fabric guy (prefer durability over luxuriousness - fit is king) and I have 3 of their suits (just received the 3rd one). The 1st one I've had for about 4 months or so, the 2nd for 2 months. I wear them every week as part of my regular rotation and...

    First Suit help!

    Jcrew is running their 20% promo on-line right now. I think the 20% off lands it close to $400 for jacket and pants (maybe a shade over) but that's not too bad if the need is immediate.

    Hugo Boss Selection Suit

    I have one suit and one blazer. I would wear a 36R in the regular Boss line and went the same with Selection. Still needed both taken in.

    Gaziano & Girling or Edward Green

    you have RLPL? that means you already own one of them. Sorry, I think they're actually Blue Label shoes. Made by C&J if I remember my anthology right but it was some time ago that I got them.

    Gaziano & Girling or Edward Green

    So.... I am thinking of making a foray into a 'nicer' pair of shoes (own AE, RL Blue Label English made, Grenson). EG and GG are both going to be in my neck of the woods. As much as I would like to try both, I am not that flush unfortunately. I may get to both eventually but as the first, am...

    Middle button came off on 3 roll 2 sportcoat

    Unfortunately, I have no basic sewing skills. I wouldn't mind practicing but probably not on this particular jacket. Thanks - I think I have enough to go on to figure out what I want to do.

    Middle button came off on 3 roll 2 sportcoat

    So the middle/crucial button on my 3 roll 2 SC came off (threads busted). Is this something any ol' seamstress at the corner cleaners can put back on or I need to seek myself a reliable tailor (of which there is one in the area)? It's a cashmere full canvas dealie if that makes a difference at...

    RLPL Edward Greens for $325?

    Anyone else feeling silly that they've bought $300 shoes that they have no idea what they look like nor who made them? Not really. If they're no good, they get returned to Polo.

    Michel Angelo of Napoli?

    I had to do very minimal (an inch or so)waist suppresion and I am average build (5'11 165-170lbs). According to STP, it is 3/4 canvas construction are you saying that they mean only the lapels or is the item misrepresented? I'm a skinnier guy. Maybe it's the models I tried on, but it was very...

    Michel Angelo of Napoli?

    Actually, I think they're fused w/ canvassed lapels a la Polo blue label. Admittedly, I only tried on one suit and sportsjacket before returning them, but overall, they were very... roomy. Definitely appeared to be geared towards the American market where they think people are large.....

    Ingrown facial hair...

    You can try a facial scrub - they're supposed to help clear dead skin and can aid in coaxing the ingrown out.

    Jantzen - current turnaround time?

    I don't know if the moratorium has ended. According to one poster, Ricky hasn't had time to check his email.

    Has the stuff been moved to a clearance rack or is it still on the rack near the counter?
