Clags shoes look great. re: discussion on noodles thread. That's a great last for his fits/style (i.e. the meermin)

Sorry for the bathroom photo. I tried all three mirrors available in the building, and this was the only one with remotely adequate lighting. I'm also still using a temporary phone with a terrible camera. So, it is what it is!

Waistcoat needs some work - shortened at the shoulder, and in at the sides.

Me too.
Clags - is that shirt collar different to your normal ones? Appears to have more height and roll. I like it.


Was just noting same. Also maybe less spread than some of your other shirts. I'd stick with this going forward.

Totally the same. But I have no idea why this generally looks a bit different; it does on a consistent basis.

The sleeves don't bother me enough to not wear. I have far bigger fish to fry. Went from wearing a suit / jacket once a month to 7 days a week, including church. I just can't justify being without a navy jacket for a couple weeks.


Buy a second one! :teach:

For a thift-find, it is quite a find! What I want to know, is who would give away that suit?!?!?!

Too much navy?

Navy-wise I think it's the pants and cardi that clash, but more than that the top half (which I like a lot) is so much more formal than the bottom. If only it were a full soot!

Regarding sleeve length alterations... you have no clue. I have had these sleeves "altered" on two occasions. I had one drycleaner just refuse to do the alteration. I swear, it is absolutely insane.

You should see the pants I just got back from a legitimate "tailor" here in town. I measured, gave him the length, etc. The pants are a solid 5" too long.

It is hard to believe for big city peeps, but in smaller cities, alterations can be an absolute nightmare. The only good experience I have had is with a tailor that is an hour drive away.

I have a tailor at a military base who does a great job. I'm going to lose her though in the near future cause I have to relocate because of work.
