    My Suit

    Has anybody bought a suit from this brand? If so, how is the quality? I need some new suits and was thinking about buying some from My Suit in Manhattan. In America, good bespoke (which, IMO, is hard-if by NO means impossible to come by in America) is a minimum of $1,500 to start for two...

    Double Breasted Overcoat with Double Breasted Suit or Jacket

    Esquire or GQ recently said that you don't wear a DB overcoat with a DB suit or jacket as it is overkill and should not be done (implying that doing so is a faux pas). Is this true? Or, are Esquire and GQ full of it?

    Oxxford questions

    Does Oxxford now sell their clothing outside of the USA? If so, where does Oxxford sell their clothing outside of the USA? About a year or so ago, I read on their website (before they butchered their website, that is) that they planned to expand their clothing offerings to Canada, the United...

    Has anybody here ever heard of the name Freda?

    If so, is the dictionary spelling for the name Freda /free'duh/ or /fray'duh/? FWIW, Freda is a female name. The reason that I am asking is because there is this actress that was on Roswell that I am a huge fan of named Shiri Appleby whose middle name is Freda. I know that this seems like a...

    Dimitri Gomez shoes

    Does Dimitri Gomez re-craft shoes? I sincerely hope so as the handwork and overall quality of Dimitri Gomez shoes is similar to the handwork and overall quality of Silvano Lattanzi shoes for anywhere from hundreds of dollars to a few thousand dollars less than SL. Also, what stores in the...

    Silavno Lattanzi made to measure/bespoke services

    Are Silvano Lattanzi’s so called “made to measure” services made to order services (like Edward Green) or real bespoke services (like John Lobb, Cleverly, Scafora and Ugiloni)? Also, if Silvano Lattanzi’s "made to measure" services are really bespoke services, is it possible for SL (SL being...
