Silk is probably the worst possible thing to make pocket-bags from.

There is an old saying that goes "Nouveau riche is better than no riche." But from my point of view that saying should be revised as follows:
Nouveau rich is like diarrhea ... most unpleasant.
It's better not to have ... and even better to avoid, period.

I don't see anything wrong with using denim as fabric for a sports jacket - it's just a different fabric with different texture to it. But seriously the piping and the shield are ugly.

Several Savile Row tailors have done it and they look just fine.

Exactly. The basic idea is great. The execution is, shall I say, fashion-forward.

I'm shocked that no one has mentioned that you can overpay for a pair of Levi's at Brooks Brothers.

Levi's at Bergdorf Goodman are way more expensive than BB– I've seem them at Bergdorf's for over $1,000.
