    Ask A Question, Get An Answer... - Post All Quick Questions Here (Classic menswear)

    Just go with black is almost never the right answer. For a start, try matching your pants (and not your shoes). When you want to venture out, try something that complements the color of your pants or picks up something in your shirt or tie. The only time black is correct is if you're wearing...

    Glen Plaid Suit Appropriate for Law Office?

    I commonly wear glen plaid to a law office. If you want more conservative, go with a darker base color. http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:y...290qz7.jpg&t=1

    The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

    USA Walkover PTB's in great shape. The shirt is deadstock Gitman. The material is a lightweight chambray, bordering on an end on end. The gray trou are wool/cotton Bills and the houndstooth is a Green and Navy Corbin. Now if the the weather would just break I was in for less than $15 for the...

    Help me help my father

    My father runs a healthcare technology company worth about 100m and thinks Rockports are high end dress shoes and that Jos. A. Banks are decent suits. None of his clothing has ever touched a tailor. Until just a few years ago when he FINALLY upgraded to an Audi A8L, he drove a purple 1996...

    Help me help my father

    1) Get an attractive significant other (preferably female, although either would work really, barring you being shot); 2) Take your old man shopping with yourself and your new significant other; 3) Tell her in advance that her goal is to get him to buy as many tasteful articles as possible; 4)...

    Does a "Regular" Twill Shirt Wrinkle Less than a Herringbone Shirt?

    Depends entirely on the twill and the herringbone.

    Shoe Shine in Los Angeles

    There used to be a shoe-shine guy with a chair near the Bloomingdale's in the Century City mall. I don't work in Century City anymore, so I don't know if his stand is still there. I wouldn't be surprised if there were a place in the basement level of the 2029/2049 Century Park East towers, but...

    Dangers of buying clothing from the 80s and before

    I was 100% certain that this thread was going to be a story about finding cocaine in the hidden pocket in a thrift-store sport coat. I would be aware of this issue as well, just for future reference.

    Can I wear my Tom Ford suit to work?

    NO. I'm no expert on TF or anything "fashion" but unless you're the founder/owner of the firm, I would refraing from wearing a "casual" suit which I can only assume a Tom Ford suit is. It's for parties. Not for business. TF suits are not typically "casual." a) No one will notice; b) the people...

    Conservative Suit for Law Firm Interviews -- BB or an Alternative?

    (3) White shirt it. The only fashion blip I had was with a very old partner at an older NYC firm. He looked at the blue shirt I was wearing, and mentioned that back in his day, associates all wore white shirts and only partners were permitted to wear color. I doubt San Fran firms are going to...

    Recent non-Sartorialist Looks

    Wasn't this suit a BB BF offering a few years back that eventually went on deep discount? These multi-colored suits are all over in the South. Esp. during the summer. They're usually seersucker, though.

    Tartan pants are going to take over F/W. Put money on it. Edit: NY Ranger - That jacket kills! It's like it was designed specifically for summer weddings. Well done!

    Should Hacking Pockets Be Banned?

    There are hacking pockets and then there are hacking pockets. I agree that the ones set at 45 degrees look ridiculous. But a very slight angle can make your suit look quite rakish but no one can quite put their finger on why. Vox has a good example and I think you could go at an angle even less...

    The wingtip thread

    ^^^^ Looks very similar to the Allen Edmonds McAllister, hmmmm. McAliister and McMillan are good friends, actually. They're known to frequent their local down-town bar after work where they both enjoy a good top-shelf whiskey. McAllister takes his neat, but McMillan can't avoid an ice cube or two.

    I was at Nordstrom's yesterday picking up a few shirts/ shoes, their semi-annual sales are super. So over the course of the year, I've got a staple set of business casual shirts that I'm happy about. Now, it would be nice to have slacks that aren't khakis. What are good brands that are slim fit...
