It was an Italian store wasn't it? Maybe try about 5-10 pages back in the thread.

I bought this jacket from Herringbone, which I am pretty happy with for the price. (Cotton, unlined, unstructured)

I had to size up since it's quite trim.
Why does it seem like a fair amount of people here have an aversion to buying things online?
Because with shirts and suits where the fit must be precise, its a bit of a risk to throw hundreds on something that you don't get to try on.
where was it someone mentioned a few weeks ago, an online store where you could get persols or raybans at a much lower price than myers?
Hi Philip,
I am one of those guys spend longtime looking on clothes on the net. Try to find some reviews and compare prices and then go buy at a store. Stores do charge more in Sydney for obvious reasons. Few reasons I don't buy from the net - You can't feel the fabric, you can't try them on (some cloths look good on their own but may not look good on you) and last but not least once I part with my cash I want my goods(this is the most important part for me!). Waiting is for goods to arrive is a pain !

I think for the sale price $250 it'll do very nicely. some people may not like the white but it looks good imho
I definitely agree with you on the waiting part, that is hell especially with USPS snail pace service, but the low prices and the wider availability of items makes up for it
Well I have a body type that generally fits very well OTR for most designers and I always make note of the return policies. Honestly though, if there was no online shopping what kind of options am i really left with in Sydney?
I'm not sure what was mentioned but framesdirect and pretavoir are good
Hey anyone know a good proxy in the UK for Uniqlo stuff? Didn't have much luck with Search...

Measure your precise fitting shirts and suits and then compare measurements with online ones.
The thing with online retailers is that 99% of them are not like B&S. For jackets most of the time they just list chest measurement and with shirts just neck and sleeves. Not enough measurements to know how they will fit at all.
I don't think I've ever encountered a time when I couldn't get hold of a specific measurement.
