Not sure I understand. What does the quality have to do eh the best not fitting you?
Haven’t bought anything by CR in years due to its lack of quality…the sizing is a bad joke.

Anybody here following the World Championships in Shoemaking at all? If the top 3 shoes were to come down under, what stores would you like to see them at? Ideally shoe stores or menswear stores with solid shoe offerings

Came across an interesting haberdashery called Blue Works at Darling Place, near Chinatown. Small but cool curation of Japanese brands including Ring Jacket, Buzz Rickson, Old Joe etc. And they had a few Carmina models… Worth checking out.

Hi, I had a shirt made by Charles with a fused collar and it is quite itchy around my neck. Would going for a non-fused collar next time reduce the itchiness? Or is the collar fusing irrelevant here? Thanks
