    Dress Pants in Stockholm

    I would suggest going to Lund & Lund at Sturegatan, near Humlegårdsgatan. They will probably be able to provide with your requested pants. Ströms would probably only offer flat fronts, sadly. /Mr S

    Church's Shoes Brisbane Brogue on the 73 Last

    I'm looking at a pair of Church's Brisbane, a full brogue model on the 73 last. Does any1 have , a pair? How does the 73 compare to EG 202 or C&J 341/330? http://www.herringshoes.co.uk/produc...electedFitID=0 Church's 73 is slightly shorter than C&J 341. /Mr S

    Al Bazar store in Italy

    The manufacturer of their dress and casual shirts is called Guy Rover. I don't know whom else they supply. Guy Rover also supplies MTM dress shirts for M. Bardelli. /Mr S

    Tab Collars: Do You Own Any?

    I always notice them on Germany's foreign secretary Frank-Walter Steinmeier: I never thought of this looks as something linked to a certain period or a certain country. Maybe that's a sign for his secret love for America? Many German men favor the tab collar, for example Rolf Breuer, former...

    Which Kiwi colour for chestnut C&Js?

    A beatiful pair of chestnut Westbournes just arrived in my mail. I love them. I have always used Kiwi, sometimes together with Collonil Water Stop neutral, but which Kiwi colour would you suggest for my Westbournes? Try C&J's Tan shoe polish. That's what the guys at Graffords would recommend...

    Looking for Bespoke Glasses

    Does anybody know who makes high-quality bespoke glasses? My head is hard to fit (too big), and I'd like some nice horn-rimmed glasses that will last. I can buy local (Chicago, NYC, DC), or international if necessary. Try contacting Schnuchel in Germany to see if there is someone near You...

    C&J Repton @ Ben Silver

    Does any other vendor stock this model or it is exclusive to Ben Silver? I did not see it on PLAL. Is this model considered Bench Grade? No, this model is from the Hand Grade line. /Mr S

    Milan shopping

    How do you like the Guy Rover shirts? I am just curious because I bought one several days ago but I have never heard about the brand before. I bought it because it is at a good discout (about 70$) and fits me well. I cannot even found any information in google about this brand. Guy Rover...

    Shirts from Harvey and Hudson

    I like to know also if the stripes from the yoke or shoulder match with those running down the sleeve. No, they don't match stripes, or checks, at the shoulder seam. /Mr S

    Quick question about proper polish color

    Kiwi make a Light Tan (at least for the UK market), than is considerably lighter than Mid Tan. I've only recently discovered it myself, and it's much better on colours like C&J tan Cliffords than the Mid-Tan which I previously used. I also find both to be a major improvements over neutral...

    Shoe Damage Report & Appreciation Central - Part I

    How is the C&J pricing in Sweden? I'll be there in a couple weeks but I suspect the exchange rate will not be in my favor. The toe caps may be all I can afford. Regular grade from SEK 3300 (incl. VAT) and up. Handgrade from SEK 4500 (incl. VAT) and up. It really depends on what store you buy...

    Zegna "MTM" experience

    You can take in the coat front on a Zegna MTM. I had it done the last time I ordered. /Mr S

    Horizontal Striped Suit

    I've seen one. TV-producer Mark Burnett was wearing one when he was on The O'Reilly Factor the other week. It looked weird. However, the pinstripes on the lapels were not horizontal. /Mr S

    Do you like this suit?

    Actually, it's not impossible. My tailor told me once that he could "crack the sleevehole seam" (probably not the correct english phrase). That would make the sleevehole about 1/2 cm larger. /Mr S
