    Ultimate noob thread - recommend me X in my wardrobe - post questions here please.

    I'd personally NOT get a messenger bag ... even though I use one all the time. But I get compliments on mine sometimes, its made by Roots. They're in your price range anyway.

    Really F'd Up Question

    You want to do this because you're annoyed she's banging him on the side, not banging you on the side. Yes?

    What company makes good quality khaki suits?

     Those shoes are pretty bad.

    What company makes good quality khaki suits?

    I'll also mention since you asked for 'quality' that 200 bucks for a half canvassed suit seems pretty good.

    What company makes good quality khaki suits?

    BB fitzgerald is a pretty young cut, especially if you slim it in a bit. Last I checked they had clearance fitzgerald cotton suits for $200. Been considering getting one.

    I did not notice a weight difference from my Raybans.

    Viccel.com socks

    Ordered 6 recently. Got them in about 2 weeks. The only drawback is that there is no visible logo to let everyone know what fine socks I have. I remedied this by removing the turkish stamps on the package, and then pinning them to my socks. I've been getting knowing nods from other well...

    What suit would suit me?

    Keep in mind that goodyear welted shoes are resoleable, so assuming you care for them properly, they'll live longer then the 50 pound shoes. Does it fully offset the price? Maybe not, but over time, the price difference between low end goodyear welted shoes and cheap shoes is probably small...

    Herring Shakespeare II

    If my size 10's don't fit, I'll flip then easily then, heh. Like the burnishing. I'm planning on hitting them with some medium brown.

    Herring Shakespeare II

    Ordered a pair in the reddish brown. Sadly I won't be able to report on them till october since they're going to be a birthday gift.

    PSMF diet

    I've used RFL. It works. It was a lot easier then i thought it would be. For the carb load, eat a fair amount of carbs, but don't go crazy on fat. The free meal is a free meal, its for psychological reasons, if you want a glass of wine or a glass of beer have one, have desert, eat a measured...

    Randolph Engineering Sunglasses Preferences

    I own both RE and ray ban. I've generally been happy with both, but there's no question my RE ones have a much better finish and look better then my ray bans. Obviously YMMV. I can't remember which size I have, but in retrospect wished I'd gone one size larger. There are some instructions on...

    Raincoats: Cheap out or get something stylish and/or expensive?

    Re-evolving, you live somewhere relatively cool in the winter don't you? I have an olive DB trench bought when I was 19 or so that might be okay if it weren't a size too large. I like black ... but I don't think I'd get black on a trench in the future. Raincoats are primarily three-season...

    Plastic Shoe Trees *gasp*

    I loove cedar trees and only use them but can only get them in the states. Here in Canada they're 40$!!!!!!! Which is highway damn robbery. If you happy to be in downtown toronto, pick them up at novelty shoe rebuilders on yonge. The same trees everyone else has for $25 last time I was in there.

    Livening Up A Black Suit

    You're running in to the real problem with a black suit as your main suit - its difficult to dress up and down. Throwing out entirely whether it is conservative or appropriate, it is not nearly as flexible as greys and blues. But that is beside the point for you, since that's what you've got...

    Looking for a shoe that fits different outfits

    Great shoes guys. The Clarks look decent, but they are also well within my budget. I really like the Loake Pimlico suede shoes. Those look great. I wonder if there are any stores in the Us where I could purchase them. If there are, I'm sure they'd overcharge.

    Shoe prices

    With regards to the OP: I have ordered from Herring relatively recently. It looks to me like 140 GBP would not get you into a herring classic or a loake 1880. You'd be looking at loake 'shoemakers' or herring graduates. You're looking at a lot of corrected leather in that range, though not...

    Net worth before you can "afford" $500 shoes?

    For young people, income is certainly the reasonable driver, not net worth, especially if you are buying a business wardrobe. If you are young and just landed 200k job that's going to rise to 500k, and you need an instant wardrobe, I wouldn't necessarily think dropping 5k on shoes/clothes would...

    Just can't get myself to wear (soil/tarnish) the new Darltons..

    So I'm the only one who uses a little sandpaper on the soles before I wear them to get them scuffed up enough that I have traction?
