Type of seam used for shirt alterations?
It was quite easy after I sacrificed the first practice shirt to the serger. Sergers are wonderful but dangerous time-savers because they stitch and cut the excess material all at once. :-) I used one of my tailored shirts as a template and set it on top of the new shirt (which is inside-out...- hoffmand

Type of seam used for shirt alterations?
I got the shirt back from the second tailor. It's a single stitch finished with a serger. It looks fine, just not as nice as the other place that used a matching flat-felled seam. On a side note, I got a quick training on my wife's sewing machine and serger and tapered 4 of my shirts one...- hoffmand

Type of seam used for shirt alterations?
I'm trying out two tailors in Austin right now for shirt slimming. The first charges $16 if he serges, $20 to replicate the original double seam.

Wallet vs. Card Case (front pocket question)
I also have an All-Ett wallet for front pocket use. I have the Leather European which is the smallest one that carries bills and credit cards. Obviously not the most elegant wallet, but the outside is a nice black leather and it is super thin.- hoffmand

BB Non-iron cottons shirts $39.75 starting Jan 6th
I've heard some complaints about the BB non-irons (or all non-irons) wearing out quicker than people expected, but what about their "unconditional guarantee"? Why not just return them for a new shirt or a full refund? You only need to buy the shirt once and they'll keep replacing it...- hoffmand

Allen Edmonds Linden?
I'm looking to buy my first nice pair of shoes and as much as everyone likes the Park Avenue's, I just don't wear suits that often. I need a nice pair of shoes for jeans/chinos and button-down's. Would the Lindens be appropriate? They are not too expensive at Grapevinehill right now...- hoffmand

RLBL suits $300 @ Woodbury commons
40L Glen Plaid is still available. Good thing I called back, turns out the girl I spoke with was mistaken and it wasn't plain charcoal. They also still have the navy pinstripe in 40L.- hoffmand

RLBL suits $300 @ Woodbury commons
She said it wasn't the glen plaid, just solid charcoal gray (but she didn't sound like she knew too much about the suits). I guess I'll find out when it gets here. She also said there was a navy pin stripe in 40L but I needed something more basic.- hoffmand
