    Samuelsohn Ties

    Any thoughts on the quality? Often mentioned in the same breath as Brioni in suit conversations here and my favorite ties are Brioni wovens. Nordstrom seems to be clearing house on them with multiples styles/colors at $50.

    d̶r̶e̶s̶s̶ casual boot decisions are getting tough.

    College student go with the Wolverine, the leather will be a bit harder wearing than an Alden boot (even if marginally less nice). Given the terrible things that are basically guaranteed to happen to it, there is a good amount of value there. Also, you probably have great uses for an extra $125...

    The RACHford Files: Linjer Soft Briefcase TestDrive

    Can someone confirm that the portfolio fits a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon. I've had problems with 13" Mac cases in the past despite the listed dimensions being at 13.03" x 8.92" x 0.53" (Front)-0.77" (Rear). Don't worry guys - already backed the card case and portfolio but literally my whole...

    Card Case Recommendations

    Got a new wallet but the card slots are slightly too small for my business cards, so need a card case. Sounds like leather is the way to go. Looking for relatively conservative (no alligator unfortunately), no (or very subtle) maker's mark and thin case with high quality leather. Don't love the...

    Help Building A Streetwear Wardrobe

    Over the last few years this forum has really helped me develop my personal style. However, for most of that time, I lived in a suit and spent the majority of my shopping time and money on high-quality tailored clothing and leather goods. However, a move from NYC to Boston later, I'm in an...

    Nordstrom: What to buy & what to avoid?

    Honestly, I'd spent the gift cards on a replacement item like shoe trees, fragrances - it may not be on sale but assuming you will wear it not a bad way to burn gift card currency. I haven't bought a department store suit, shirt or sport coat in years (menswear specialist, at almost every...

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    Is it just me or did BB take price across the board on staples (shirts/suits)? At the same time they seem to be heavily discounting some of the seasonal/fashionable stuff (assuming they just missed trend). Unclear what the rationale is here - menswear is more competitive than ever with RL...

    ***The official Alden thread *** Share enthusiasm, reviews, sizing, advice, and photos.

    Really dumb question. I just replaced my favorite pair of BB cordovan loafers with the lined Alden equivalent. I fly frequently and generally go through the TSA Precheck line (where you can keep shoes on). The Aldens set the metal detector off, where the BB loaders didn't. Anyone know why this...

    Belt Recommendations

    Turns out the AE Woven Chili belts get quite close and because they are multi-tone I can deal with the slight difference in shade better. http://www.zappos.com/allen-edmonds-woven-inlay Thanks though.

    Bright/Pastel colored oxford shirt brands like Vineyard Vines/Brooks Brothers/Peter Millar?

    Bump - would be interested, I have long arms (14.5/34 in BB) and VV doesn't fit. Love BB but can never find that really thick cloth I like as most of their OCBD appear to be lightweight (at the least the ones sold as dress shirts and not in S/M/L/XL sizing). Looks like Peter Millar does S/M/L/XL...

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    Anyone have a favorite BB SA in Boston? Recently wandered into the Newbury store during the corporate sale last week and was pretty much ignored. Have a few big ticket purchases coming up and want to start developing a relationship, as apparently without one the New England cold shoulder is what...

    Belt Recommendations

    So I just picked up a pair of C&J Handgrade Barrington's in the Tan Antique. I'm anal about my belts matching my shoes, and my current tan belt is too light. C&J's tan belt is also on the lighter side (sales rep said this is because the hand grades are a bit darker), it doesn't very match well...
