MTM in Toronto area recommendation ?
Suits are holding up. Will have to get some pics taken once the wife is back in town. The suits look great when standing or walking around. I think the pants are a bit billowy compared to other suits I have - just not tapered enough for my liking. The jacket fits and looks great, but because...- Church's Goer

Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures
I've seen the tan duffel (in its various sizes) make the following film/tv appearances: - Drive - large duffel - Old School - medium duffel - Battlestar Galactica - small duffel. I don't care if you call me lame, or tell me I need vindication for my choices in life; I like spotting my...- Church's Goer

Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures
Got a small duffle (tan) a while ago. Really like it and it's great for booting about town, travelling as well as carrying my gym gear etc. I often take it with me to work (full suit) and although it looks much better than my $30 nylon Puma bag, it still doesn't quite go. Perhaps the bag...- Church's Goer

MTM in Toronto area recommendation ?
Guess it depends on what is considered fashion forward. I'm pretty conservative in my dress. I had him go with both hacked pockets and a ticket pocket. My goal was to get a couple of durable suits that can be worn year round in Toronto's climate. His tailor made the measurements and...- Church's Goer

MTM in Toronto area recommendation ?
I recently went through this process. I scoured the forums here and went to numerous different tailors. I'm a bigger guy with a 12 inch drop (difference between your chest and waist dimension). There are no RTW houses that will fit me since my arms barely fit into normal jackets). I have...- Church's Goer

Random health and exercise thoughts
I've always found taking a week off of OP and doing some heavier than normal arnold presses helps me get past a rut. Done right, you use a tonne of muscle groups during the standing OP, so focusing on using as much of your core and keeping your shoulder blades nice and tight may help. Worse...- Church's Goer

Random health and exercise thoughts
To the first part - just give up on RTW. You'll spend more on alterations than will be worthwhile. I have almost exactly the same specs (slightly larger drop) and its not even worth the time any more. To the second, that's not true. The seated calf raise has been shown to be the most effective...- Church's Goer

Random health and exercise thoughts
Any of you guys able to chime in on this? Looking for some advice regarding what suit designers/brands are more forgiving for muscular guys. Trying to find a go-to RTW brand to keep an eye on for sales. So far I haven't had much luck. http://www.styleforum.net/showthread.php?t=254820 Oh, and...- Church's Goer

Lululemon Athletica - Their workout clothes any good?
I've owned 2 shirts for nearly 10 years, and a couple of more items for slightly less time. The first two are still my favourite workout shirts. The wife has tonnes of clothing from them - extremely comfortable and resilient. Great fit (I hate clingy clothes) and each has proven resilient to...- Church's Goer

Laptop for Bschool
I confronted a similar issue when I went to Bschool. Ended up buying a Macbook but ended up giving it to my wife and buying an x300 (predecessor to x1 I believe). The Mac version of Excel would not allow me to do simple statistical analyses like regressions because of the coding - was pretty...- Church's Goer

Best RTW Fit for Big Guys
I have a 10-12 inch drop. 44-46 chest and 34 waist. I have recently tried numerous brands, from Hugo Boss, Canali, Armani, and the BB Regent and Fitzgerald lines (I figured the Milano would not fit since it is BB's slimmest cut - but to be honest I didn't try the Madison). The closest fit I have...- Church's Goer

Northampton Report
Definitely worth the trip north. Only costs about $60-100 to take the train north from London and you make up the savings on one shoe purchase. I will be hitting up the Church's in early September. Saw that Herring has a pair of Black Tenby's on their site in my size on clearance for ~320 quid...- Church's Goer

Best RTW Fit for Big Guys
Hey Gents, I have a bit of a problem finding RTW suits to fit me due to my dimensions. I have usually gone the MTM route before, but it would be nice to go into a store or online to take advantage of sales and know which lines or which designers might fit my (or anyone else's) dimensions. I'm...- Church's Goer

Thanks for the info. I might have to see them in person to make my final choice, but I agree that the canvas one looks solid after a number of years. Who knows what the nylon one looks like after some wear and tear.- Church's Goer

I'm looking for a small duffle to use for the gym, carry-on luggage, and overnighters. Getting tired of carrying around a cheesy sports bag on my way to work in a suit. Does anybody have any insight into the differences between the small canvas duffle bag #220 and the nylon Passage Expedition...- Church's Goer

health for building body?
Maybe it's just me, but there's a bit of a difference between "most whey protein products contain artificial ingredients" and "whey protein is artificial." I'm not disputing that whey protein isn't natural. However the point is that natural whey isn't readily available outside of farms and I'm...- Church's Goer

health for building body?
There's nothing "artificial" about whey protein, wtf is wrong with you people? It's just a protein that's filtered and isolated from milk, it's entirely naturally occurring. Almost all protein powders on the market contain preservatives, other chemical ingredients and sucralose. Not to mention...- Church's Goer

What's your favorite cocktail?
Belvedere Intense, with ice. If it's cold enough, no ice necessary (this is preferable). Pair it with a red bull for those 0-->1000 nights. Summer...mojitos all the way. Ideally no syrup involved, but there are times when beggars can't be choosers. Two oft ordered beers at the moment: Innis...- Church's Goer
