Yo, you guys don't put them in suit bags/covers?

I actual do for my S&M stuff since they come with bags, I also keep all of my tweed jackets in bags (i feel like that’s more suceptible to damage than linen or cotton). I just pulled the bags for the pic.

Since were showing off our S&M collection here is mine. Sport coats only.

S&M sport coats. The two on the far right are technically suits (wool/linen check) but they get broken up enough to qualify.

Much smaller collection than the rest of you, but still was able to overhaul (read: replace) my suit collection in a short amount of time, not to mention add two items I’d been wanting for a long time at a great price (camelhair sportcoat and DB camel overcoat):

I have 2 cats in my house. Without suit bags my jackets would be frosted with feline fur.

Same, we have 3. I was in flannel pajamas all weekend and, though I just washed them Friday, they’re already back in the laundry because of the amount of cat hair they’ve acquired. The bad part is one is white, one is orange, and one is calico (with lots of white), so the hair is definitely visible.

I mean, I guess that means they like me (they’ve been taking shifts in my lap all weekend), but still

My cats aren't allowed in my closet. :D

Oh, my closet door stays absolutely shut at all times. I have a 3-tiered shoe rack lining each wall and a not-insignificant amount invested in footwear, and one of my cats has a tendency to want to investigate interesting stuff (like shoelaces or tassels) with his claws. Same thing with my hanging ties, belts, etc

Does anyone have experience of the 16 ESF vs the 15.5 slim fit? I wear the 16 ESF but the collars are too big and although the 1” difference in the chest doesn’t seem like much the ESF is cutting it close for me.

On the other hand, anyone have any luck/tips on shrinking just the collar of a shirt?
