    Barba Shirts from Shop the Finest Question

    I have a couple of Barba shirts from STF and i find the collars fairly tame. A little higher and more substantial than brooks and jpress and some of the more pedestrian ralph lauren shirts, but shorter than my bespoke shirts and shorter than the two collars you posted. I wouldn't worry about it...

    ** Quintessential Crockett & Jones Thread ** (reviews, quality, etc...)

    Just an fyi for anyone looking for better pictures than the ****** ones on most c&j websites, I've always used C&J swedens page for comparing colours. http://www.crockettandjones.se/herrskor.html

    Flusser MTM or similar

    Does anyone have experience with alan flusser's mtm line? I've come across a number of people talking about it but few people who have actually given it a go. Basically, I'm looking for a well-made trimmish, drape-inspired cut jacket from somewhere with a good selection of english fabrics -...

    Going out in Montreal

    The plateau sounds exactly what youre looking for. Theres a bunch of places on st. laurent, st. denis, duluth, and mount royal. Its a fairly hip crowd, and a mix of bars, smallish nightclubs with music and cafes. You really can't go wrong with any of them. The places on crescent are more hit or...

    screw on buttons for blazer/sport coat

    I've wondered the same thing. I remember reading somewhere that george hamilton has a db navy mohair blend suit that has changable buttons so it can serve as a dinner jacket, blazer, or suit. Its an interesting concept.

    Full Length Trench Coats - How Long?

    Related question: At around $1500 bucks a pop (and no sign of any sales/discounts), is one of the 'made in England' Burburry trenches (made out of raglan/garbadine) worth it? I tried one on last weekend and it is clearly a cut above any other trench I have seen (JCrew, BB, RL, even a Brioni)...

    Buying shoes in Montreal (and to a greater extent, Canada)

    Yup, I get Saphir waxes and creams directly from the cobbler who installs those flush mounted taps I've shown in a few pics. He happens to be the local Saphir distributor and the guy l'Uomo and other boutiques send their shoe repairs to. Would you mind sharing who/where this is? Ive heard...

    Buying shoes in Montreal (and to a greater extent, Canada)

    I find that whether or not duty gets imposed depends a lot on which shipping method is used. Almost everything I've had send postal (USPS, RoyalMail, etc.) has come through with nothing oweing, even though the declaration is filled out correctly. On the other hand, I've had a number of items...

    Merino V Neck Sweaters... Suggestions?

    In my experience, all wool and cashmere sweaters shrink up after washing. Of course, being knits, they will stretch back out over time, but still, its immediately noticeable. I actually notice it more with my scottish and italian sweaters than the cheap stuff. And yes, I hand wash in cold water...

    Merino V Neck Sweaters... Suggestions?

    I'm quite slim and have had good luck with certain models of the brooks brothers sweaters. They seem to shrink up quite a bit during their first washing, and the quality is miles ahead of most of the cheap brands. I'm 5'8 and 130 pounds and after being washed i wouldn't say they add much bulk to...

    Anyone know these brands?

    as a fellow Canadian, i wholeheartedly would recommend made to measure by samuelsohn or coppley if your budget can't stretch quite as far. Both offer good value for money (samuelsohn suits are often on par with much more expensive suits), are available quickly from the canadian factories, and...

    A Suitable Wardrobe

    As far as I can tell, Will promotes the brands that he wears, which presumably are the brands who he believes offer the best product. He always discloses that he wears products from these companies. Also, most of the items offered by the online store are not by firms that Will has promoted...

    Mytailor.com button-down collars or similar

    dandysf Thats kind of what i figured about the Hemrajani collars. I'm almost to the point of just splurging for brooks made to measures, but surely someone can make something similar

    Need Help with Sizing for Barbour Beaufort jacket

    I have about a 35-inch chest and find the 36 to be almost perfect fitting. it fits close without being constricting . It is fairly unshaped so don't expect much waist suppression, but suspect that sizing down wouldn't improve the waist much and would be constraining in the shoulders

    Mytailor.com button-down collars or similar

    For years I've been having my shirts made by Hemrajani Bros in hong kong and have been happy with their work. The only non mtm shirts i can't give up are my brooks ocbds. I've been hesitant to order button down collars from hemrajani (mytailor.com) because their online picture of their...

    If you had to start over tomorrow...

    I'm not in New York, I'm actually from Halifax Nova Scotia, going to University in Montreal, but I'm able to pop down to New York a few times a year. A good friend of mine's parents keep an apartment there and its a quick train ride down. I'm not familiar with Winston Tailors. Could you...

    If you had to start over tomorrow...

    As a university student just starting myself, I found this thread particularly interesting. Most of what's been said confirms my wardrobe plans. I'm into in sort of an updated Ivy League look with a bit of a European influence After acquiring a basic supply of RTW staples, I've just started...

    Do young women prefer casual looks over dress looks?

    I just stumbled upon this and had to give my two cents worth. I'm finishing my last year in high-school where girls tastes seem to be more or less the same as university. For the past couple of years, I've dressed relatively 'well'. Something like 80% of girls seem to respond really well to...
