    It should come out. But to be fair, it is a likely occupational hazard with your olive oil importing and waste management businesses.

    The Official-ish DC Thread

    I've been biking all week as well, other than yesterday thanks to a particularly poorly placed DC pothole. It's amazing how much pollen accumulates on my bike during the course of the day. As long as I wash my face after riding, my allergies are somewhat manageable, but it definitely puts a...

    It's a good reminder that I need to clean the mirror. I bought the entire roll and I think I have a enough remaining for a suit or two.

    Hello fellow DMV folk, I logged in because I was tagged in a post that apparently was deleted (thanks to @smittycl for protecting me from cyber doom). Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the early summer! I dusted off a sage linen/wool/silk (Barbera) suit today - over a month before...

    The Made-to-Measure Thread

    it’s hard to say exactly without seeing you in person, but it could be several things. Forward shoulders usually requires reducing the upper chest, but it could also be an issue of where the collar is located and the shape of the armhole itself (circle vs oval). When shoulders are forward or...

    The Made-to-Measure Thread

    Also, do you have a picture from the back? There are no signs of needing more slope in the front and I suspect you might have gone too far (would be evident from jacket collar riding high on shirt collar). There are other factors that can easily be confused with needing more slope, like...

    I also have pretty dramatic slope, albeit less than yours. Doing unpadded/lightly padded shoulders like that will only exaggerate the angle. Even on my Neapolitan shouldered garments I still put a somewhat hefty pad in. It doesn’t extend past the shoulder, so know one’s the wiser and I don’t...

    The Made-to-Measure Thread

    If you mean the one I posted, it’s from 2017 and I think 3”, but have started drifting wider, particularly on peak. I don’t love super wide notch though. Nice Neapolitan shoulder, but not super long, just high button stance and camera angle give the appearance. Customer is 5’9” or so...

    I love that fabric. Just made a pair of trousers in the same shade and did the green one in a jacket.

    Thanks for tagging me... yes, roped shoulders and and single pleated. Full canvas, made in Italy with a great lightweight Reda flannel.

    Ezra Paul - DC?

    Wearing it well my friend! 3-roll-2, fabric is from the aptly named "Italian Textile Biella", a small mill in Biella.

    How is that possible?? Once Covid clears (if that ever happens), we’ll walk up from the shop. The Green Zone is fun for one drink, Jack Rose for whiskey. Haven’t made it to the new Imperial, but it’s one of the few new places that doesn’t seem to have the same old decor as everywhere else. Other...
