    The Hong Kong Tailors Thread

    @klp2332, was the full break of the trousers deliberate? How open was the tailor to your suggestions? Are functional underarm sweat patches a staple amongst Hong Kong tailors? The suits I commissioned in Hong Kong tend to be quarter-lined, so I don't recall ever seeing such a feature. This is...

    The Hong Kong Tailors Thread

    @schumanfu, the $100 question I have is this - how much did you actually pay for your suit at Senszio?

    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

    @jet-stream, how are the J Rendenbach leather soles holding up? I haven't worn my double monks in conditions more strenuous than the carpeted floor at work, so my soles are still pristine.

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    My point really is that the Original Briefcase is suitable for everyday business use. I agree that the Original Briefcase can hold the items you mentioned (and probably more) and make a fashion statement at the same time. This is of course unique only to me but the Original Briefcase is not...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    I have the Original Briefcase and a Zippered Tote Bag (and a few more). Of the two, I would say the Zippered Tote Bag is more practical - you can easily cram stuff into it, even bulky objects like shoes or clothes. You can stuff the Original Briefcase but that isn't what it is really intended...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Does anyone have a Filson in black which has been through a bit of the weather? Tan ages pretty well and I am wondering how a black version would look. I am thinking of buying a Filson medium field bag in black. Grateful for comments.

    Briefcase Appreciation thread

    Here are photos taken today of the Flap Over J Style Briefcase. I placed an order with Pickett on 10 May 2013 and received the same on 22 May 2013 (sadly after the payment of the not inconsiderable taxes and brokerage fees). There do not seem to be any reviews of this particular model so the...

    Interesting eBay Lawsuit

    Of course none of this will have any impact on American contract law in the least. I might be wrong but I think the case has persuasive value no matter the jurisdiction from which it originates. Depending on how desperate I am, I am willing to use any case, be it from India or even China.

    high collar/slim fit dress shirt

    Is it possible to have a single button for the high collar without the collar collapsing? I am a bit too lazy to button up one additional button.

    Hong Kong Suit & Shirt Tailors Recommendation

    I bought 7 jantzen shirts when I was there and I am pleased by their quality in view of the price. Here's a recommendation. Do get Ricky to measure you up. He's more experienced than the hired helpers that stand around.

    Suits by Jantzen

    I am reviving this old thread. Does anyone have any idea what's the latest price of a suit by Jantzen? I searched the forums and the the most recent price of a suit (in Jun 2006) was 4,500 Hong Kong Dollars and that included 3 shirts too. All help appreciated.

    Working cuff buttons

    While we are at this topic, is there a rule regarding leaving the last button (ie the button closest to the end of the sleeve) undone? Come to think of it, working cuff buttons might accomodate huge watches.

    Briefcase Appreciation thread

    What do you guys think about this briefcase? I am thinking of getting it. I like the idea of having two pockets on the side of the briefcase for putting personal effects.
