    In search of: the perfect dopp kit

    I am a frequent traveler and the dopp kit stays packed. On a recent trip, the Victorinox nylon bag I have used happily for years suddenly bled on an expenive white shirt. Of course, this necessitated a shopping trip but I digress. I switched the offending kit out for an leather kit I have had...

    Best shoe trees for travel?

    Frequent traveler here. I typically try to go with only one pair of dress shoes unless absolutely necessary. When I do carry more than one pair, I haven't found that a few nights without trees have caused problems. On occasions when my shoes have gotten wet, I have gone the newspaper route.

    Seersucker...opinions?

    I have never owned a seersucker suit. I think I always pictured Matlock. I tried one on recently with my wife along. I was surprised we both liked it so I bought it. My daughter loves it too surprisingly and has asked that I wear it to her high school graduation. Left to my own devices, I...

    Introduction

    Gentlemen, After being a lurking consumer of this forum for several years, I finally decided to join and engage in the conversation. I am a guy that has long been called a "clothes horse" by friends and family. I am not even sure where that turn of phrase originated but, yea, I will admit to...
