    ** Quintessential Crockett & Jones Thread ** (reviews, quality, etc...)

    I was at the Colmore Row store at opening time this morning. Plenty for sale in all sizes including a nice pair of cordovan Bradfords that made their way home with me. :)

    Do you buy 2 pairs of pants with every suit?

    Yes, always. I alternate the pair of trousers used each time I wear the suit. I always get both pairs plus the coat cleaned and pressed whenever it's required.

    HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

     Looks a little like the wool\linen mix sawtooths vanda do. Agreed it's an interesting texture.

    In desperate need of help!

    Can we get some more context? What's your budget? You mentioned your office - what sort of profession/industry? You say you're a jeans and T-Shirt type - is that by choice or because you can't get alternatives that fit? Do you know the rest of your dimensions - collar, arm and body length...

    [VOTE NOW] SW&D CHALLENGE ––PROPORTION PLAY––

     Holdfast As articulate and constructive as always and summed up my own thoughts far more eloquently than I could. This challenge was excellent and the participants showed a depth and variety that those of us (blessed or) cursed with the safety of wearing formal business wear each day can...

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

     I can although I think the pattern is more distinct in the swatch/link than in reality so I'm not sure you'll be any the wiser. It's a handsome looking cloth up close but will reduce to a plain navy from anything beyond touching distance.

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

     I have a suit in exactly that cloth (wore it today as it happens). The overcheck is very faint and possibly not distinct enough for a blazer (depends upon your taste I suppose). Makes a fine suit though.

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

     No mystery I'm afraid. I phoned the bloke up who makes my stuff and ordered some swatches.
