    Romano Martegani Repair

    Can someone tell me a good place to get my Romano Martegani chukka boot soles replaced? I'm near LA. I've used B. Nelson for goodyear soles, but not sure if they can do blake rapid, which I believe these are. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    NWT Ralph Lauren Straight Fit Laundered Chino 33-32

    I bought these but they're just too slim for me. Brand new with tags. Don't be fooled by the name, I''d call these slim fit, not straight-fit. Nice pants. $40 shipped CONUS.

    Paris in late August, early September

    My wife, 2-year old daughter and I will be visiting friends in Provence at the end of August, beginning of September, and we'll be staying in Paris for a few days before we head down there. I know there are plenty on this site that either live in Paris or have spent substantial time there, so...

    Armani Collezioni shirt...fused cuffs?

    So I bought an Armani Collezioni shirt at Saks a few months ago and just realized the cuffs are fused. I'm getting those dreaded bubbles forming. Mind you, I don't dry this in the dryer, only hang-dry. For $315 (retail) you'd think they'd make a better shirt. The only reason I bought the...

    Real or Fake (Sorry, SFW)

    Can someone tell me if this shirt is actually made by Ralph Lauren Purple Label? Here are the reasons I believe this is fake: 1) Plastic buttons 2) Fused collar, cuffs and placket 3) Poor stitching 4) Poor buttonhole quality 5) Feels like poly/cotton blend Pics: Attachment 44840 Attachment...

    MNF - Packers @ Vikings

    Amongst all the ass-kissing of Brett Favre by the commentators, and all the "analysis" of the game, one thing I haven't heard them comment on is how he would have done had he been playing for Green Bay instead of Minnesota. I can assure you he would have had at least 2 picks if he had...

    Resoling Florsheim Shell Longwings w/ Joh. Redenbach

    I'm preparing to have a pair of Florshiem Imperial longwings resoled by B. Nelson and noticed on their order form that one option is to use Joh. Redenbach soles. This costs an extra $30. Is it worth it and can anyone explain to me what's so special about these soles? I noticed lefty just had a...

    Converting eyelets to speed lacers?

    I have a pair of Red Wing GT 9011's that I love, but I hate having to undo the laces at the top. I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to have the eyelets of a boot converted to speed lacers. Has anyone ever heard of this?

    Unimpressed with Canali on Bob Costas

    Does anyone else think the suits that Costas has been wearing during the Olympics look like crap? They're supposedly Canali, but to me it looks like he's wearing a CK suit that's a size too big.

    Johnathan Behr Suit

    I've finally gotten my finished suit from Johnathan Behr in Pasadena (CA not TX). Some of you may have heard about him from LARON's posts about him. I'm very pleased with the suit he made for me. Please excuse the picture as I had to rely on my kitchen bartop as a tripod. Attachment 7884 The...

    Borrelli shirt cuffs

    I got my first Borrelli shirt the other day and I've found that the cuffs (double cuffed, that is) are rather tight around my wrists. By the way, I have very skinny wrists. I don't wear double cuffed shirts very often, but the others I do have don't tend to be as tight. I have a brooks brothers...

    Your advice on a tie for my wedding.

    I know this topic has been discussed ad nauseam, but I'd like the opinions of the kind souls here on the forum. I will be wearing a grey single breasted suit for my wedding with a white shirt and silver tie. I have the suit (Johnathan Behr bespoke) and shirt (white Borrelli, spread collar), but...

    Single breasted peak lapel suit.

    My wedding day is approaching, and I will most probably have a suit made by Johnathan Behr, a tailor here in Southern California. Because the wedding will take place around 3PM, I did not want to wear a tuxedo. Also, because it will be a less formal event, I did not plan on wearing the...

    What do you think of this 3-button vest?

    I was wondering what you gentlemen thought of this tuxedo vest. As I have found out, it's nearly impossible to find a 3-button tuxedo vest these days. Almost all are of the 6-button-abomination style. I found one online for $50 dollars (in wool) and I was wondering what your opinion was...
