    Equus Leather - English Handstitched Bridle Leather Belts - Official Affiliate and Review Thread

    I’m based on Singapore, and paid with my Singapore debit card which is making things complicated. Local bank has asked a bunch of question but no reply

    Equus Leather - English Handstitched Bridle Leather Belts - Official Affiliate and Review Thread

    Hi all I know everyone really appreciates their work (which though I’ve not been able to experience and was hoping to with this order which now will never be delivered), it is really disappointing that they’ve had to fold and won’t be able to fulfill orders to a whole bunch of customers who will...

    Equus Leather - English Handstitched Bridle Leather Belts - Official Affiliate and Review Thread

    Omg I’m pretty sure BTG handles bankruptcies and liquidated companies… this is utterly horrible. Not sure if we’ll ever get our money back as I’m sure unfulfilled orders rank much lower in the debtor-creditor hierarchy

    Equus Leather - English Handstitched Bridle Leather Belts - Official Affiliate and Review Thread

    Ordered a belt last October and still have not received. Have sent multiple emails, DM’d on Instagram, left a message on an IG post where other buyers have complaint about the same issue - radio silence. When I log in on their site still shows my order is in the order book. Their Twitter page is...

    Higher Quality & Office-appropriate version of Uniqlo Vintage Chinos

    Thanks for the reply Inspector! Yeah I used to wear BB Advantage Chinos almost religiously - however the Clark's fit a bit too large and the Milano's (especially the rise) were a bit too snug. Lastly the perma-crease has become a big turn off for me. And these days it's getting hard to find the...

    Higher Quality & Office-appropriate version of Uniqlo Vintage Chinos

    SF! Need your advice. I've been scouring the interwebs and retail stores for a higher quality version of Uniqlo's Regular Fit Vintage Chinos - however I've not been very successful so far. My ideal pair would be a little dressier (i.e. hidden seams vs double seams) since I wear them to the...

    Kamakura Shirts - Madison Ave Store

    Hi All what fabrics do you usually order? Reason I ask - I've had one shirt I bought in Japan that had a really thin and light fabric which I hate. Recently checked with their customer service and they said it's a royal oxford when I gave them the product code. But I've got other Royal Oxfords...

    The Hong Kong Tailors Thread

    Thanks @Hifilover ! Totally forgot about Lee Baron. Recall Peter was an SF fav for quite a while. I think Guido used to use him as well! That’s a great price point. I was going off Luxire’s prices which pegged regular VBC at around 150USD. But I’d much rather see the fabric in person and have a...

    The Hong Kong Tailors Thread

    Hi All! Fantastic thread here that I’ve been trying to ply through as much as possible. I will be working in HK for a few months pretty soon and planning to get a suit or two and an SC or two made with WW Chan, AMHC or Gordon Yao. However for the time being I need to get some trousers made...

    Kamakura Shirts - Madison Ave Store

    Thanks mosivy. That’s what I’ll do I reckon. Probably go for the 43-92 and take 2cm off the sleeves. The downside is the selection of NY fits is smaller than for the Tokyo fits. Will have to stop by their store next time I’m in NY or Japan

    Kamakura Shirts - Madison Ave Store

    Yeah I’ve looked at the size guides. Relying more on the cm measurements rather than in inches cuz it’s inaccurate. Thanks Spex! Yes I’ve looked through the size guide but had to look at their cm figures. The numbers in inches are slightly off. The similar brand page was helpful but stopped at...

    Kamakura Shirts - Madison Ave Store

    Hi guys, I have a number of Kamakuras in Tokyo Slim Fit 16.5/34 (42/86cm) that I bought in Japan. However I got these a few years ago when I was slimmer and prefered a closer fit. I was also wearing a lot of B.B. ESF(now Milano) at the time. However i’ve got a dad bod now, working longer...
