    Oliver Peoples?

    I've worn their products in the past. In general, good quality and nice styles. My experience is the same. Very comfortable and good quality.

    Abu Dhabi Airport

    Should have flown through Dubai. DXB Airport is impressive. This is a picture of terminal 1. They just opened the new terminal 3 dedicated to Emirates Airlines. It is nice, but I prefer Heathrow terminal 5 with the exception of the horrific security lines at the transfer section.

    Lobb or Cleverley

    Those need shoe trees like humans need to breathe oxygen. Rest assured that the shoes from both Cleverley and G & G now have trees from their respective makers to keep them company.

    Lobb or Cleverley

    With respect to the VAT, Cleverley will provide you with a rebate form that you take the airport when you leave the EU. You get it stamped by customs and then send back to them. At Heathrow Terminal 3, this took me all of three minutes. Get it stamped and the post box is several meters away...

    Lobb or Cleverley

    Jupiter, would you mind sharing with us your bespoke experiences through James Taylor and G&G...and how did they compare to Cleverley? My first bespoke experience was with James Taylor. I had a pair of shoes made and my motivation to use them was that they are specialists in problem feet. The...

    Lobb or Cleverley

    Hello, I have not tried Lobb, but have used Cleverley, James Taylor, and G & G. I have similar issues with flat feet and have used Cleverley. They put in arch supports for me and I cannot recommend Cleverley enough. The shoes fit like gloves and are light. The supports do not pinch or feel odd...

    Great show. It looks like there may be a new series taking place post-World War Two. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz...peacetime.html

    Falke Socks

    Agreed. That is a useless "canned answer" response. In the USA the [most common] sized hose stating "10" is a median size. Usually referring to a shoe size fit of 8 to 9. and it goes up or down from there. High end brands that are sized may even have a 9.5 sock which will fit a 6.0 to 7.5 shoe...

    Bespoke Shoes: First Order

    Both pairs have rubber pieces on the heel. This is stop slippage and has worked out well. I do have trees for the Cleverleys, and the G & G trees were not ready when I picked up the shoes in London last month. I was happy to wait, as I was more interested in trying out my new shoes. The...

    Great sartorial TV - Jeeves and Wooster

    We should not forget about the fantastic cars! One thing I really liked was Bertie's pocket watch that he wears in his breast pocket with the t-bar (I think it is called) through the hole in the lapel. Very classy. I recently saw a gentleman with this passing through Piccadilly and it was...

    Bespoke Shoes: First Order

    I would have to agree with Medwards. This year I ordered a first pair from both Cleverley and G & G and have recently picked them up. Both pairs are unique and fit well. The shoes from Cleverley are like slippers. They are extremely light and are very form fitting to my foot. The pair from G...

    London bespoke: Cleverley or Foster

    I was wandering around London and looked up and there was Cleverley. The store was fantastic. I had a lovely chat with the lastmasker and ended up ordering a pair of bespoke suede oxford. Come the fall both pairs should be finished so it will be interesting to compare them.
