    Lardini blazers and suits

    I am also curious as to the cut/quality. Another promising looking brand on Yoox for me is Tagliatore. They have nice looking lapel rolls, evidenced by the horrid looking top button on the models clearly meant to do 3-2 roll.

    Soft suit sleeve head... puckering

    In my case, one side was almost completely clean while the other had a good amount of waterfall effect. That's what's happening to me, pretty much. The back side of the sleeves (rear deltoids on my body) look pretty close to each other but on the front, one basically sits smooth while the other...

    Soft suit sleeve head... puckering

    So I just got a Stile Latino suit in from Yoox today. (not Attolini made anymore, by the way, still pretty nice, but maybe about Isaia level now) The suit is really softly constructed, with basically no padding on the shoulders or chest, just some canvassing to give it some body. It's...

    Do my suits need a tapered leg?

    I get most my pant legs tailored to 8.5" across at the hem. I wear a size 9US shoes. That doesn't mean yours is wrong. 8.5" width to size 9 is a personal preference of mine, and vary depending on shoe styles and pant styles. What I'm saying is, if it seems too wide, go get one...

    StevenAver.com VS. Benjamin Sartorial

    I don't see how you can educated yourself in MTM without trying and failing a couple of times. There is no other way to know for sure. And there's the rub, isn't it? How DO you educate yourself without trying and failing a bunch of times? Personally I went the RTW route and have gone all the...

    StevenAver.com VS. Benjamin Sartorial

    Nonsense. So long as you ensure you've done the research and go with one of the better online MTM houses, and make sure you have all your details spot on, then you should get a good result. Don't go RTW unless you truly want to. You have to admit, unless you really really know what you're...

    StevenAver.com VS. Benjamin Sartorial

    Anyone else besides Mute willing to make a direct comparison between either brands versus some kind of known quantity... say, Isaia or some other such thing? Never really considered Thick as Thieves because their style doesn't grab me.

    Cage Match!!! LoL! (No, I really did Lol'ed :P)

    StevenAver.com VS. Benjamin Sartorial

    Well, that's the thing is that my fit preference is pretty specific. I have a somewhat athletic body with 40" chest and 33" waist. The main problem for me usually is shoulder slope and waist suppression. As in, I find most RTW jackets have hips & waist that are too big for my preference and the...

    StevenAver.com VS. Benjamin Sartorial

    So I'm in the market for a new suit, and have been seriously considering going with either Steven Aver's MTM service or a Benjamin Sartorial over at ehaberdasher.com. I'm looking to get a new "staple" as in solid navy, charcoal, or some other such thing along the same line of thought. Benjamin...

    So Saks lost half of my suit....

    Wow, I can honestly say that I've never heard of anything like that happening before. I just plain wonder what happened to the pants between when you said "please hold this for me" and the suit getting picked up. It's kind of water under the bridge now, but still curious, ya know?

    Critique My Suit and Blazer Fits (Updated!)

    You should get rid of the RLPL... by selling to me!!! Actually, I think most of us would be curious as to what the RLPL would look like when you take out the **** basting. I don't think it's going to affect the resell value much especially since the sleeve bastings are still there and you also...

    Study Dispels Myth of Post-Workout Fat Burn

    Actually this is the first time I've heard of the "myth" in the first place. I've always thought it was somewhat obvious that you use energy (calories) when performing activities and don't when you don't.
