    This might be perfect. I wear a 44L sport coat (not S&M sizing, prob a 46 for them). Could you post/DM some measurements (shoulder, chest)? TIA!

    Proper Cloth - Official Affiliate Thread

    @Seph I recently had my custom fitting via video, with my try-on kit. So, my measurements are saved on the PC site. How would I go about asking PC to adjust these measurements to a more classic fit, a la dapperclassic? Thanks!

    I would like to order a custom sport coat from @spierandmackay. I would likely need a 46L. Since all orders are final sale, and I cannot seem to find measurements online for this size, what can I do? TIA.

    So, these are MUCH orange-r than I thought they’d be. Even more so than AE walnut. Since they were final sale, I’m looking for advice and recommendations on using polish to make them “browner”. Will it work? On pebble grain? Will it look good? TIA!

    Same office, same pants, different day, different boots. Ottawa in bourbon suede, with a mini lug sole applied to deal with the PNW weather.

    Best Iconic Sunglasses?

    Best sunglasses I've ever owned: Randolph Engineering Aviators, with progressive lenses from SportRx. And I'm an old fart who grew up in CA wearing Ray Bans, etc.

    In case anyone wants to see a pair of Ottawas in crimson CXL. About 20 wears…. Super comfortable right out of the box. Much “browner” than I thought they would be, but that’s an observation not a complaint.

    Sizing question for anyone who might be able to help: What is the difference in front rise between high-waisted trousers and “regular” trousers, if both were, say, a size 36 contemporary? I’m trying to determine how “high” the rise is on the regular dress trousers. Thanks in advance

    Yep, pretty much an 11 D. About 11 heel to toe, and 11.5 heel to ball, but I never find my toes cramped or my foot wrongly positioned, so... ?

    I typically wear a US 11. This is "generally" the same as a UK 10. In the GS Leo last, I wear a US 10.5. So, I suppose I would wear a UK 9.5. Is that helpful?

    Grant Stone - Official Affiliate Thread

    Alright, Grant Stone experts: over the past few months I've purchased 4 pairs (Ottawa in crimson CXL, Cap Toe in brown calf, longwing in cognac pebble grain, and Chukka in tan suede) and I've become a raving fan. Q: I want to get the Ottawa in bourbon suede, but it has a leather sole. Since I...

    Need some guidance from the GS veterans here: I've just received a pair of the Ottawa boots in crimson CXL. Absolutely love the boots, but the laces...not so much. With the speed hooks, they seem too long (I'm not an ankle wrapper). Can you all recommend some (proper length - 54"?) round waxed...
