    Thrifted Suit - Jacket fit advice

    Last week I stumbled upon this double-breasted pinstripe suit and bought it on a whim. Made to measure by a Hong Kong tailor for a Mr. Robert Hill, (he left a stack of his business cards in a pocket), and it came with two pairs of trousers. Anyway, given that the sleeves would need to be...

    Brooks Brothers "Seersucker Inspired" ?

    I'm looking for a seersucker suit, and am in Europe so have to source one from the USA. Today I called the BB Factory Store in Boston and asked if they'd anything in stock in my size. (My sister in law lives not too far away so could pick up something and mail to me.) The SA I as talking to...

    Seersucker suit in Labor Day sales

    Bidding on a seersucker suit on eBay, I was distracted for the vital last 10 minutes of the auction and lost it, despite my high bid. Are there likely to be any good deals on a seersucker suit in the Labor Day sales? Going to a wedding in Malaysia in November where it will be hot and humid. Do...

    Henley Regatta Style

    The 175th Henley Royal Regatta has just ended, when the world's rowers and their admirers come to loiter on the banks of the Thames, dressed in their finest. Due to family commitments, I didn't get to spend as much time there as I'd have liked, but here are a few photos from Friday morning...

    Double Monks like you've never seen them before

    Idly looking throught the ebay listings of sausages234 this morning, (well known for Northampton shoes), I spotted a pair of Barker double monks, and something in the thumbnail photo just didn't look right. Had to click through to make sure I wasn't seeing things. As the description says... I...

    J.D. Ricks or J.D. Fisk. Quality?

    My sister-in-law, recently back from a trip to Chicago, has just sent me an e-mail saying, that while there she bought me a pair of "J.D. Ricks brown suede boots". Now, try as I might, I can't find anything on Google about J.D. Ricks shoes or boots. Anyone heard of them? Thinking there might be...

    Saddle Shoes - Bass or J&M

    I'm looking to buy a pair of bone/navy saddle shoes, but am in Europe where saddle shoes are thin on the ground. My wife will be in the US next month though so she can pick up a pair for me. I had thought of the Bass Buchanon, but have just seen the Johnston & Murphy Brennan, which is currently...

    Herring Shakespeare II Burgundy

    Has anyone here got a pair of Herring Shakespeare II Double Monks in Burgundy. If so, could you please post a photo or two, maybe out in bright sunlight. I like the look of them, but the photos on the Herring website look so dark.

    Suitsupply - Do they have sales?

    This mainly for people in the UK. Or London I guess, since that's where the 3 shops are. Anyway, Suitsupply. Do they have summer and post-Christmas sales as other retailers do? And, if so, what kind of reductions have they? Thanks

    Stockists of Guabello fabrics

    I had a thread on a related subject a few months ago. Trying to buy a metre or two of fabric to match a suit I bought in early summer. I've found from the suit manufacturer that the fabric is from an Italian company caled Guabello, and I have the code number. Does anyone know if there is a...

    Clark's Shoes width fittings

    Going to buy some shoes from the Herring Shoes website, but am not quite sure whether to go for an F or G fitting. I have two pairs of Clark's (designed by Oliver Sweeney), and they are 8G. Checking Clark's website yesterday I see that G is their standard width and H their wider one. Can...

    Matching material from suit manufacturer

    Just bought a blue chalk stripe suit from Suitsupply. Similar to this one, but not so dark, more a royal blue. Anyway, I'd love a waistcoat to match, but they don't do one. Even though they have a tailoring service, it seems this fabric is not available for their MTM suits. At least that's what...
