    What material is this jacket made of, and when is it ideal to wear it?

    What material is this jacket made of? And what occasion(s) would be ideal to wear this kind of jacket? Aluminum, with a gold anodized coating. Don't wear this jacket unless you are the guy in the photo.

    Disappointed with Brooks Bros.

    He was introducing himself. I know this because I'm a normal person who has experienced an introduction before. Thanks BeachBoy. No offense taken. I just mentioned some of my background so that you all don't think I am just blowing smoke here. Maybe my intro sounded egotistical, but all of it...

    Southwick MTM Advice Needed

    Southwick has always been a nice #4 make soft shoulder garment. They are best known for their manufacturing of the Brooks Bros 346 clothing, although I don't know if they still do...I doubt it. Southwick probably is associated with the Spencer Hayes Group of great old brands that have sold out...

    Is Jos A Bank even a real store? JAB is a real store...they just don't have real prices. You are a fool to pay more than 50% off of their so-called "retail" prices. At those prices you have some pretty good value for ready-to-wear clothing. At least you don't come out with that Ceasar Romero...

    Disappointed with Brooks Bros.

    Wow, you guys talk about Brook Bros like it was the axis of the mens clothing world. There isn't as much difference in goods between JA Banks and BB as you might wish. The old Brooks Bros?...that was something different. Nobody made an oxford shirt like they did. Southwick / Grieco Bros. - made...

    Mens Wearhouse CEO to Step Down

    I'll sell my stock options, I guarantee it. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-0...e-new-ceo.html When I was in retail, a co-worker at this very high-end store used to comment when he saw a guy dressed like this, that he must have shopped at "the Ceasar Romero Outlet Store". .....I thought it...

    Polo university club suits

    How do you rate Polo university club suits? Worth picking up for 50$? How old are they? Thanks for the input. What others have posted here is correct. Perhaps I can add a few details since I was employed as a sales person in the New York showrom of Polo University (Club) for nine years. Polo U...
