Scent/Fragrance of the Day thread
Well now I'm just going to feel compelled to visit the counter and reacquaint myself with Rocabar...just to see if I need it in my back pocket for future. Personally, I enjoy wearing a scent for a long time, so that people associate it with me (not my natural scent, haha) and so it has got to...- TorontoJK

Scent/Fragrance of the Day thread
Td'H has been my daily scent for the past couple of years. I used to wear Rocabar but when I smelled Td'H for the first time I was hooked. Have never received as many compliments and inquiries as to my cologne as with Td'H. Of course, it's always a matter of personal taste and body chemistry!- TorontoJK

The StyleForum Working Hierarchical Suit Quality List (SFWHSQL!)
So, after doing the pinch test at home (and not feeling any floating layer) I called the BOSS store and spoke with a very informative and helpful SA. After listening to my story he replied that I'd been giving some false information and apologized for the dishonest SA. He told me that one of the...- TorontoJK

Shoe 101?
Thanks for the advice - the "shoes explained" thread from 2003 was very helpful in explaining shoe construction. I will try on some AE's locally (they're carried in a few stores) and then see about ordering from Nordstroms.- TorontoJK

Shoe 101?
Hi SF - I'm just looking for a 101 on dress shoes. There's probably an existing thread somewhere on SF but my searches have not yielded anything satisfactory. If you do know of one, please link it here with my thanks. I'm in the market for a couple of pairs of lace-ups and want to make sure...- TorontoJK

Introduce yourself.
Hi SF - I'm a 37 year old, working in the financial district here in Toronto. I run a private equity fund that focuses on SME businesses located in and around Toronto. I'm married with one kid (and another coming in December). I typically wear a suit 4 days a week, and on Fridays I usually wear...- TorontoJK

Best suit quality and fit for under $1000
Of course, no one can give a blanket answer, point well taken. For me personally, I wear suits 4 or 5 days a week and enjoy a modern cut without getting 'skinny'. Because of my height (5'9") I always stick to 2-button jackets and prefer single breasted. In the past, the Boss 'Jam' or 'James'...- TorontoJK

The StyleForum Working Hierarchical Suit Quality List (SFWHSQL!)
No - it was the black label, $995 (Canadian) in the Sharp/Jam style. I asked him why someone would buy through Boss when Harry Rosen (large Canadian men's retailer) was across the street with a huge Boss section and he told me that the biggest perk of purchasing from the Boss store was the...- TorontoJK

The StyleForum Working Hierarchical Suit Quality List (SFWHSQL!)
I've bought a bunch of Boss suits over the past 4 or 5 years and have enjoyed wearing them and yes, gotten compliments on them (but I certainly don't advertise that they're Boss, why would I?) Now, I did have an issue with one slim cut basic black suit splitting in the seat (as I ran up a flight...- TorontoJK

Best suit quality and fit for under $1000
Thanks for the welcome gsugsu. I was assuming to pay retail here in Toronto, but of course will look for sales if possible. The last 4 or 5 suits that I've bought have all been Hugo Boss and I figured that was a safe bet for under $1000. At the Boss flagship store here in Toronto the salesman...- TorontoJK

Yes, SpiffEngineer gave me a great answer, buried underneath the unnecessary sarcasm. I thought his reply was a bit much so I thought I'd bring attention to it, but my response was meant to be humourous as well - I'll read those threads for sure.- TorontoJK

Thanks for your thoughts SpiffEngineer. I'm having a little trouble getting through your post, so I'll run it through my Sarcastic Asshole Translator software... Okay, here it is. Apparently what you are trying to say would read something like this, assuming it was written by a somewhat...- TorontoJK

Best suit quality and fit for under $1000
Hi Styleforum, Can any of the veterans weigh in with their opinions? While it's easy to throw out some of the super luxury brands as being of superior quality in terms of fabric, style and fit, who gets it right for under $1000? I know that there are a lot of options in and around that price...- TorontoJK
