the dress was in 'quotes' because I realize there is no such thing, technically speaking. I just meant a dressier version than the ones I have, which are suede on vibram soles and scotch grain on danite. I want a sleek, dark brown calf version on a leather sole.


given up on the chelseas? :D

actually, i have to curate two boxes full of shoes - twentytwo pairs - and i desperatly hope, that none of them fits me...

I'd be happy with a pair like your EG's too.

I actually ordered a pair of scotch grain on Dainite from across the sea, but they didn't fit. They'll go to B&S sooner or later.

oh, i can't see his posts. nvm.


I'm both heartbroken and flattered.

Samuelsohn, obviously a respectable suit maker, has used this photo twice in two days to promote themselves on facebook, and they say he's 'lookin' good'. WTF? It obvioulsy hasn't been tailored at all and it looks like he's wearing a suit because his Mom told him he has to, not becuase he wants to... dissapointing PR bullshit.

Social media marketing tends to care more about fameballing than product quality. Especially if it's agency or intern work.

I saw that sweater when you first posted it and it really looks like it fits well. I'm googling them right now. Most of my more fitted Italian sweaters look better on me but I feel more restricted in them. I suppose it's a trade-off.


Try here. I think these will give a bit, because the weave is loose, so they'll feel less restricted. You might want to size up.
