    BRAND NEW WITH BOX - UK 8 Meermin Light Brown Calf Penny Loafer

    Have for sale a brand new pair of Meermin Penny Loafers in Light Brown. Wore them only once to try for size - they didn't fit me very well. *Shoe trees not included The wait time on these from Meermin's website is about a month or so, I will ship these out immediately once payment is...

    Where to buy 2" silk skinny ties?

    I'm quite surprised no one has mentioned www.thetiebar.com yet. They have quite a wide selection of what the OP is looking for, and at $15 a tie they're pretty much a steal. Quality is probably not terribly great, but you can't really complain at that price.

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    Yeah I did manage to find out about these, but as a stop-gap measure, would it be advisable to simply stick a shoe tree I use for my other pairs of shoes into them for a bit? I reckon that these might also have the effect of stretching out the leather in the right parts.

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread - reviews, pictures, sizing, etc...

    Hey guys, I have a quick question. I recently ordered a pair of AE Westchesters in 8.5D. They got here today. I tried them on and my left foot fits in them just fine, but my right is a tad too tight for comfort. I realise that this is probably because I've never noticed that my right foot is...

    Need Advice : First Suit & Shoes On A Shoestring (?) Budget (Singapore)

    Yup. I'm aware that Ed Et Al has just launched their new collection. Took a look at their new stuff but can't help but get the impression that almost none of their new models can really be worn as a "staple". They all pretty much scream "statement pieces" to me, with the colours and all. This...

    Singapore Tailors - is it worth it?

    They're pretty good from what I know. Suits start at SGD950

    ESPADRILLES

    Toms? I've had two pairs for about a year now and wear them very regularly - they're holding up pretty well. Inexpensive too.

    My first Ray-Ban RB2132-902 New Wayfarer

    Was also thinking about the RB2132 initially because it seemed to fit my face slightly better than the 2140, but the whole reason I decided to get a pair was for that classic look - so it had to be the 2140 in the end. I'd probably go with the black with the 2132 though.

    My first Ray-Ban RB2132-902 New Wayfarer

    I actually just bought myself a wayfarer too. Was torn between the Black and Tortoise like you are - but went for Tortoise in the end. I feel its an interesting twist to the black ones that are being copied by other brands. I'm not sure about the New Wayfarer, but on the RB2140 (Original...

    Need Advice : First Suit & Shoes On A Shoestring (?) Budget (Singapore)

    does anyone know of good alternatives to Iris Tailor in Singapore? Since we're on the subject. Would still like to know if anyone has had experience with Eurobest Tailors in Chinatown.

    Need Advice : First Suit & Shoes On A Shoestring (?) Budget (Singapore)

    Was just looking for more inexpensive MTM alternatives when I chanced across Eurobest Tailors. They're even featured in Esquire (http://www.esquire.com/the-side/feature/600-custom-made-suit). Gave them a ring and they quoted me SGD300-400 for something made with Super 100s. I did ask whether...

    Need Advice : First Suit & Shoes On A Shoestring (?) Budget (Singapore)

    Thanks for all the constructive replies everyone! I suppose the best way forward at this point would be to get a suit in black since it seems to be indispensable to the profession. Also the price I quoted as being willing to spend does not include a pair of shoes, which I will pick up...

    Need Advice : First Suit & Shoes On A Shoestring (?) Budget (Singapore)

    Hey Verniza, I'm pretty much in agreement with you with regards to the sad state of the way Singaporean men dress in general - I suppose that's why I'm making an effort to avoid the pitfalls heh. I realise that it's difficult to work within that price-point but will try Iris anyway, and...

    Hi All, Was looking around the internet for suggestions for the above-mentioned when I found this forum - really good stuff here! So essentially I'm looking for somewhere I can get myself my first suit and would appreciate some advice. I've never had any real experience with suiting so far...
