     Thanks for your reply. Does anyone else have any suggestions or should I pull the trigger?

    This post is also posted in the Kent Wang thread. If it's against the rules to post it in two places, please let me know and I will delete it. Here are the pictures of my Kent Wang trial suit. I'm grateful for any comments you may have. My only observation is that the button point is at...

    Kent Wang - Affiliate thread

    Here are the pictures of my trial suit. I'm grateful for any comments you may have. My only observation is that the button point is at least an inch (3-4cm) above my navel, and I think the jacket should be lengthened by a corresponding amount. Here are Aaron's comments on these...

    Toronto Tailor Help (surgeon cuffs)

    I had some done at Spiro's on Danforth a few years back for $50 per with handsewn buttonholes. I was completely satisfied. I suspect Xavier at 10 St. Mary's Street would also do it, although I've never asked him to.

    Riding a bike while wearing a business suit...

    I bike to and from work in a suit every day that the weather allows it. If it's very hot, I don't wear a jacket, but my preference is to either wear all of the parts of my suits or none at all. I wear those leg strap things to keep my trousers away from the chain. I don't worry too much...

    opinions on vibram 5 fingers

    I love mine! Everybody says "You'll recapture that fun childhood feeling of running barefoot" and in my experience it's absolutely true. But be sure to take a reasonable amount of time to build up your foot and calf strength if you're new to running in them. And remember that a reasonable...

    Is this a wedding tie?

    That's a basketweave. If the blue were black it would be close enough. Thanks Will. I love your blog, by the way. Have you seen this thread discussing wedding ties? I have, thanks. But I did not see an unambiguous statement in that thread as to whether a blue and silver woven tie like the...

    Trial Dressing Choices

    When I'm in a court that doesn't require robes, I usually wear a dark suit with black shoes, white shirt, solid or repp tie, and a white linen TV fold square. But most of the time I wear this:

    New shirts - How is the fit?

    I am also not a fan of Maxwells. I think you can do better at Winners (and infinitely better at Mytailor, who like Maxwell comes to Toronto twice a year). I like Salgado (I'm wearing one today) for MTM, but they're 3 for $185 each. Is Ridolfi competitive with that?

    Clothing as Class and Cultural Signifiers

    Here's Bozzer in better dressed days (number 8): http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/200...on_600x539.jpg I think I saw this band open for the Specials.

    New shirts - How is the fit?

    Looks very nice, and like the others I think it's a great fabric. I think it could come in at the waist and across the shoulders (from what I can tell on my rubbish monitor it looks like the seam is a bit far down your deltoid). Of course it may shrink, as you've said. Who made it? Oh yeah...

    Is this a wedding tie?

    If not, would it be a wedding tie if the blue were black? How about navy? Thanks.
