    Recommend a new dry cleaner? NJ - South Orange/Maplewood/Millburn/Short Hills

    Not quite sure where to post this, so let's see if I'm in the right sub-forum. I've been using a terrific cleaner for a few years - Royal Cleaners in Bernardsville NJ - but I'm changing jobs and they won't be convenient to where I will be working, so I'm on the hunt for a new one. They have...

    Luciano Barbera Collezione Sartoriale Jacket - Blue Fresco - Euro 50R

    SOLD. I haven’t sold anything here in a while, but this thing is going and I’d much rather sell it here than on eBay. Price is $250 shipped to continental US. I have no idea how to price it but that seems about right. It’s in excellent condition with no visible damage. Payments via PayPal...

    Isaia Suit - Light Flannel - Brown w/ Blue Windowpane - Euro Size 50R

    Isaia Suit – Euro Size 50R / US Size 40R SOLD One Isaia suit for sale from a fall closet cleaning. I'm wearing suits less and less and maybe wore this one 3-4 times. It is currently at the dry cleaner for the first time as I prefer to sell/ship suits just after cleaning. I use a high-end...

    Official Guitar, Amp, Pedals, and Gear Thread

    So glad I stumbled on this thread after years on SF. I mostly play and record acoustic. Main axes are a 2008 Martin 000C-16RGTE Aura and a 1987 Guild D-30 dreadnaught that I've had since my teen years. Recently put a Fishman Infinity Matrix pup in the Guild and it's ridiculous. Also play an...

    cowboys to dump TO, should the giants...gulp....grab him?

    great receiver, poisonous drama queen. He would be nothing but trouble. leave him where he is. Agree re: drama queen. Disagree re: great receiver. He is past his prime and, offhand, I don't think his stats compare to many others in the league. Couple that with his personal issues and I think...

    Designing a new suit - what details are you looking for?

    Earlier I had promised to have them at under $500 - I will do this but only for the initial promotion as costs went up considerably. We will retail them for $599 and up to $759.99 (Super 150's 3-piece). Please keep in mind this suit is truly exclusive - this is not a mass-made garment that we...

    Critique my shirt!

    lots of little things but over all good. Your posture does not make it easy. you have sway posture. add some darts will help the fullness in your lower back. you have a narrow chest and wide shoulders that pull forward. the chest measurment seems fine. the yoke measurement is too short. and the...

    What Obama should wear.

    "What the difference between Jews and a Pizza? The pizza doesn't shout and cry when you put it in the oven." Very tasteful... I can still do plenty of Jew jokes but for some reason I never use this one unless I'm in a company that REALLY appreciate black humour and expects it. I sure wouldn't...

    weird approach outside the Apple store...

    Any guesses as to what this might be? Me and 3 friends were standing outside the Apple store in NYC when a woman in her mid 20's (we're 19-22) comments on my friend's jeans (they were plain). Then she brings up things like football and the subway. My friend with the jeans is shy so she turned...

    Brooks Bros and pleats/flats

    A qualified tailor can complete this work but it is not without risks. Whether BB has someone on staff who can do it is hard to know. If you have your own tailor, take the suit to him/her. However, I believe the Fitzgerald 1818 model - the line now on sale - features flat-front pants on most or...

    PSA Woodbury Commmons Ralph Lauren

    Wow. This is crazy. I was at this very store about 2 weeks ago and they had NOTHING in any size larger than 38. Now there's a feeding frenzy for 40, 42, etc. - exactly what I need. How exactly does that happen?

    Election 2008: The Suit Discussion!

    The only time Palin can be more intelligent is when she is pregnant. That way, she has two brain cells in her instead of the usual one that she has now. +1
