That's a great name. If I don't watch it I'm going to end up looking like a rugby player. My older brother already does. I went up nearly two suit sizes over the past two years. I'm not killing myself in the gym or quitting the fine dining though. No a thousand times no!

Unfortunatly I already walk 12 miles a day usually with a suit carrier with two suits in it and cloth books. yes really. My days are a bit like Jack Bauer.....if he was a gentlemans outfitter. Its all the drinking and eating with clients that does it I think.

Being a 38 long isn't so bad.

I just got used to looking like a young Grand Moff Tarkin for many years.

Actually, Bauer WAS an gentleman's outfitter for a while. But he couldn't make a go of it, for three reasons: (1) Constantly having to train new assistants. (2) Hard to make money when everybody wears a single suit for 9 months at a stretch. (3) Nightmares with the theme "Made in China."

Thank you. Have you seen this one? Its been doing the rounds a bit. was rather controversial because of the slimmer lapel and color but to my mind it looked very Gieves. I am fond of those blue suits.

RobertGieves by davidreeves1979, on Flickr[/IMG] I saw him wearing this in the flesh and the color was more like mine in real life. He was quite a dresser I saw him wearing gators once. He was always very proper and a bit stern. I remember having a G&T at a Gieves event and he told me to "steady on".
