    Help with Cheaney's sizing

    I wear 7.5G in Church's, in particular the 130 last, what size should I go for in Cheaney's? C&J's are not an option for me, I own a couple of pairs but unfortunately they do not fit me very well, and the choices are very limited in their wider F fitting. Thanks in advance.

    can anyone recommend a good scarf?

    its getting pretty chilly these days in Sydney and I'm considering getting a scarf (I have a couple of cheapos and my gf says I look good wearing it). I don't have too much experience with them. Did a quick search on Ebay, a cashmere RLPL one goes for around $200 USD, is it worth it? Also...

    never button a sports coat?

    I was at the local department store this afternoon and saw a gentleman trying on a sports coat. I thought it fitted him rather nicely except for the shoulders which were a bit too boxy. Then I heard the sales assistant telling him "you never button up a sports coat but its nice to know that you...

    how long do you take to get ready for going out?

    what used to take me about 10 minutes is now taking me > 1.5 hrs. In general, these are the things I usually do before going out (e.g. date, party, dinner, etc): * hit the gym for about 45-60 minutes, it picks me up, makes my skin look vibrant and I feel good when my muscle aches * go home and...

    Where is a better place to buy? Ebay or SF's very own B&S

    Thanks to our geographic location mostly, its next to impossible to find good quality/high end men's clothing at a reasonable price. As noted by other fellow Australian SF'ers some brands are simply not sold here. On the plus side, what is off season in America is in season here. In the past...

    Is "honest tailor" an oxymoron?

    I have yet to meet an honest tailor, IMO all tailors are BS artists. What do you guys think?

    shortened jacket sleeves, four cuff buttons became three

    I recently had one of my suits' sleeves shortened, the tailor charged me $40 and took about a week. All fine. But when I picked it up, I noticed one of the buttons was missing. It originally had four buttons and now there is only three. Another problem is that there is only about 1-2cm room...

    has anyone heard of Kuss, Sorbino and Pabel?

    went to Adelaide last weekend and bought a whole heap of cloths. Many of them were Kuss and Sorbino, I was told by the salesperson, both are Italian brands. I looked up Sorbino on the web, there is indeed a website for it, there are even a couple video clips on youtube: http://www.sorbino.com/...

    where can I buy a CYMA watch in Sydney or online?

    my grandmother always had one on her wrist. I think she had it for 30 years or something until she passed away and as far as I know it never gave her any problems, albeit I was very young at the time. Anyway I want to get one as well (new not vintage), not that I need anything to remember her...
