    Persol 649 arm length issue

    I'm smaller than you. I had the 52, modified them myself over boiling water (highly wouldn't recommend) and made them work. Now have the 54s, although they are bigger everyone says they look good and the arms are long enough for my egg head!

    For Sale: Brand New Ralph Lauren Wool Navy Blazer 36S

    This was a gift this past Christmas. Brand new tags still attached. 36S, 100% wool. I already have several Navy Blazers so do not need another. Just got married and have to make room in the closet. Let me know of any questions. Shoulder to shoulder: 17.5" Bottom of collar to bottom: 28.5"...

    For Sale: Brooks Brothers 100% Wool Sportcoat 36S

    Bought this jacket a few years ago off styleforum. I've loved it. Taken good care of it. Only one or two spots where the thread might have picked a little (honestly might be from the original retail tags). I love the color. I've put away getting rid of it but just got married and have to...

    Billy Reid OLD SCHOOL Brown Cotton Corduroys 30W/27L

    I've had these a year or so and just don't wear them. They are not as fitted as most pants I would wear and have been hemmed up quite a bit by someone. Brown cotton corduroys made in Italy. Very good condition. These are obviously older Billy Reid's. I'm originally from Florence and believe...

    36-38S Donegal Mist Tweed Jacket Kevin and Howlin Dublin AMAZING

    I bought this a few years ago off this forum from Tweedydon. It is a wonderful jacket that I have hung in my closet for the past few years, basically never worn. I never had it altered for me to wear as I felt the shoulders are too wide for me. My loss is someone else's gain. The colors are...

    Banana Republic Khaki Linen Sport Coat - 38S

    Sorry for the delay. There is about an inch to let out, maybe a little more.

    Banana Republic Khaki Linen Sport Coat - 38S

    It's not boxy, but not fitted. It leans toward relaxed fit. I haven't had it altered.

    Hart Schaffner Marx Size 30 Houndstooth Green/Brown 100% Wool

    These are some pretty cool HSM pants. They are a little old school, my Mom found them somewhere in original shape. I had them hemmed, but don't quite like the fit on me. They are double pleated with cuffs. 100% wool, Made in USA. It's a cool pattern that I get compliments on every time I...

    Mabitex - Old School Italian Linen Green Windowpane Pants - Size 30

    I bought these off Styleforum last year (see link below) and haven't gotten around to taking them to the tailor. I'm doing a little spring cleaning so these are up for grabs for $40 35 plus shipping. Awesome 100% Italian linen, they just don't fit me quite right. They are a cool dark green...

    Banana Republic Khaki Linen Sport Coat - 38S

    Doing a little spring cleaning. This is a lightly used Banana Republic size 38S 100% linen jacket. It was from the summer 07 season; they must have been making them a little better back then because the quality is decent for BR. The photos in the sun are a little more accurate to color. $35...

    EDE & RAVENSCROFT (Saville Row) - HARRISONS LINEN MTM SUIT - 36S/38S

    I bought this off StyleForum last summer and will reference Holdfast's original extensive post (it's just as he described). I have added my own pictures, although this suit has sat in my closet ever since I purchased it. It is fantastic, but I have a new job where I will not be wearing many...

    BlackLapel.com - any experience with them?

    Hi all, I posted my pictures and thoughts on my recent first purchase from Black Lapel in the tailor's thread. In short, I was impressed but it is not perfect. Please see the link below and provide any comments if you can...

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    I took some new pictures, hopefully these are better (although some are blurry). For some reason, I can't get them to go right side up when uploading. Any thoughts are appreciated! Thanks.
