It may just be the longest 2 weeks ever....
Nothing clothing related for me, though i'll gift myself a couple of the new ties I have arriving just before xmas. My xmas presents as far as I know will include mostly fly fishing stuff. It's a hobby almost as expensive as clothes....

I didn't know the shop owners were brothers, but now I know (and it's obvious on the photo). Nice pics in the article.

I've had one in mind for a while as well

 

 I guess I shouldn't be surprised - I'm just glad I'm in such good company 

Prices on C&J are very reasonable, 485 for benchgrade (and maybe 585 for hand) I think. The rest of the brands are a bit rich for my blood, all in the 1000+ category but I didn't take particular note as I honestly haven't looked at the prices of EG, JL, G/A Clevery etc.

As the article says they've also got some great accessories and saphir products available.

It's a great shop and definitely worth a visit.

A quick search on Google revealed nice pics from another forum, which I have spoilered.

fxh is quite the avid contributor there too.

The tassel loafers look tasty...

Didn't know what "Marvis" was in the background. Interesting google journey...

Great post, thanks for that. Those blue velvety looking loafers in the fourth pic on the right make me very excited.

The Rubinacci velvet slippers?

Is that what they are?

 

I think I will consider making it my life's aim to live in slippers like that from the age 40 onwards.

Yeah, pretty sure that's them. Luca (Rubinacci) is regularly photographed wearing them, along with lots of other bold coloured items in typical, "I don't give a fuck, I'm Italian" fashion

Might as well add me to that list, although I may be swayed to a pair of Christian's loafers depending on the finished product...

I have a pair of Red Wing 9016 Cigar Beckman's in size 7.5US for sale if any of you Aussies are interested. Brand new, selling due to wrong sizing for $190.

^^ DR, I can confirm they are Rubinacci as stated by TBM. Apparently, the store is stocking slippers, PS, and ties from them. I didn't go to the effort to append each photo, but the source URL has some good commentary. Slippers really have the F-U look and feel to them. 

 

I've tried Marvis whitening mint - most definitely a step above the usual Supermarket fare, at $13 for a 75g tube it was a bit much for me to be using regularly. It certainly worked a little in the whitening department
