$1000-1500 for a suit *now* - what do I buy?
To the SF experts: I posted about 5 months ago asking for advice on a suit while I was in weight loss transition. At that time I was at 245 (down from 270). Now I've nearly reached my goal and am currently 205 pounds (6'3"). No six pack, but gut is gone, etc. I had planned when I reached my...- greg99

can you pull off oversized pants?
I've lost >35 pounds in the last roughly 4 months, going from a size 42 pant (and 50L jacket) to a 38 pant (and 44L jacket). I'm working on losing another roughly 15 pounds, and I'm guessing that will wind up with me in a 36 pant, as the 38's are getting a little large. Although I tried, the...- greg99

Meeting at a dot.com - jeans or slacks?
I'm a lawyer who represents dot-coms. We tend to wear jackets and slacks to client meetings (although it depends a little on the client, whether or not we wear the jacket). Sometimes a suit w/out a tie (not me, but others). We rarely wear jeans to a client meeting, unless they come to our...- greg99

Gym wear
I'm happily married, so I'm not trying to pick up women, but I often wear my "Champion" cotton t-shirt with "[IVY] LAW" in big block letters to say that while I may not be able to lift as much as you, I'm smarter than you... In seriousness, though, I usually spend 45 mins to an hour on the...- greg99

How to buy school rings cheap
In the Silicon Valley, the Brass Rat has great meaning, and nearly every MIT alum I know wears it regularly, but then I'm in the technology community. It's akin out here to the ring knockers from West Point. Admittedly, I tend to notice them more, because while I went to school on the West...- greg99

Lawyer's Body in Transition but Needs a Suit - Any Advice?
Thanks very much for the replies. I stumbled on this board a couple of months ago, and find it amazing. CH makes an interesting comment about whether my college weight (15 years later) is a reasonable goal - my wife and I were talking about just that last night. MTM is definitely under...- greg99

Lawyer's Body in Transition but Needs a Suit - Any Advice?
To the assembled brain trust: I'm a corporate lawyer in the SF Bay Area (read: "I wear gabardines and dress shirts, and I'm dressier than most of my colleagues") and a newbie here on SF. The only suit I own is, frankly, embarrasing and old. Usually, the dressiest I go is a blazer or sportscoat...- greg99

Briefcase with Strap?
I've been wanting one of these for a couple of years now, saving up my pennies and so forth: http://www.glaserdesigns.com/Assets/...127MWDeal.html Pricey as ****, but go big or go home amirite? Definitely, go big. I've been looking at one of these for a long time (previously had Haliburton...- greg99
