From yesterday evening, very casual, meeting good friends.

My attire is casual today, and not worth posting, but a write-up, with photos, of my recent trip to London, with attention to the shops, was just published on AskAndy (a request from one of the admins, which I obliged).

Men's Clothing Shopping on Jermyn Street

Some weeks ago, upon hearing of my upcoming trip to London, Mike from Ask Andy approached me, and suggested that I might take photos of what I saw, sartorially, in London during the holidays, and write about my experiences. This will be the most eccentric and capricious of travelogues. If you...

I hope that it is of interest.

Went for a long walk to burn off some of the Christmas food I’ve been stuffing myself with the last couple of days.

Love the way the color of your vest complements the color of your dog!

Competition still open. Single-breasted overcoat. Crombie. Crombie knock-off...

Friday Challenge: It looks a little like a Crombie...

... but is it a Crombie? Firstly, an apology. I have to spend six out of the next seven days on campus, and the odd day is my wife's birthday, so this is going to be a rushed start. But it ought to set you thinking. Secondly, many thanks to Clouseau for keeping me on track - I had no idea how...

These obviously need suspenders to achieve proper drape.

I know it’s been a hot topic on here as of late but how wide do you guys typically like your leg openings? Before, I never really paid much attention to it and never really specify it to my tailor until my best friend mentioned that he thought mines were too wide. When I measured all my pants, they were all between 8.5” to 9”. I wanted to try something new and had them taken in to 8”. Now I took them all back to have them go back to 8.5” cause I felt that 8” was a little too slim and 9” too wide.

For reference, I wear a 38” waist and 7 UK shoes.

8.5” is probably the sweet spot for me. 8” probably looks best (on me) for SF posing, but does feel a tad slim when seated.
