    My compliments to Ferragamo

I can line my Tramezza's up to my old rainy day kick around shoes and I can tell you which one is nicer, but other than the shine, I am hard pressed to describe the differences. Does anyone here know a lot about how to determine the...

    Advice Needed On Tying A Better Formal Bow Tie

    When I picked up my MTM Samuelsohn tuxedo they gave me a Robert Talbott satin bow tie. When I tie the bow tie the middle seems too fat instead of the more bat shaped look I think would look better.

    Question On If I Should Adjust Tuxedo Pants
