    Treating Musty Moldy Leather. What works for you?

    I thought I smelled a conspiracy, but I just checked and the seller I bought from doesn't appear to be a large seller it anything, so it isn't like he's just flipping a whole bunch of Meermins that were mishandled. I actually left the shoes in my garage more out of laziness than anything else...

    Deodorant melted onto my boots; please help

    Also just read that there are two distinct lines of Saphir. Any guidance on which line to pick?

    Deodorant melted onto my boots; please help

    Figured that might be the way to go. I've never used a product that aggressive, so I'm not exactly sure how to go about returning them to the proper form after stripping. I assume it's gonna be a bit more than the normal old Lexol conditioner. Any particular products you'd recommend at that point?

    Vintage Dress shoe appreciation, tips, maintenance and advice

    I'm pretty into nukes; this strategy speaks to me.

    Deodorant melted onto my boots; please help

    So, let's just get this out of the way; I'm an idiot. Earlier this summer I tossed my J. Crew Kenton Pacer boots into a bag along with a stick of deodorant, and left the bag in my trunk. Predictably, the sun did its thing and next thing you know I was pulling out some deodorant-conditioned...

    Vintage Dress shoe appreciation, tips, maintenance and advice

    Just wanted to stop by and say thanks for updating us and listing out your process. I have a pair of nearly unused Meermins I just got off eBay that have this smell, and I think I'm going to assault them using your method.

    Treating Musty Moldy Leather. What works for you?

    I know this thread is just about older than time itself, but I'm just kinda wondering if anyone has any updated thoughts on removing that musty smell from shoes. I happen to have run across this issue having just acquired some almost-unworn Meermin shoes from ebay. I haven't tried anything...

    The Definitive Guide to Slim Fit Shirts

    Can anyone post the actual measurements (shoulder, chest and waist) of a current (2013) Brooks Brothers Extra Slim Fit dress shirt bought from a Brooks Brother mainline store (brick & mortar, or online)? According to their website, they a green tag that looks like this: (I pulled that...

    Slim Shorts

    Seems like this was never really resolved too well. Please beware that the brands I'm to mention are not paragons of high quality goods. I know that ASOS has some slim fit shorts. I believe they go on pretty decent sales now and then (don't pay full price). The GAP lived in shorts are...

    The Definitive Guide to Slim Fit Shirts

     Apparently if you email J Crew customer support, they will give you exact measurements for any piece you want. Never tried it, but that's what I've heard.

    The Definitive Guide to Slim Fit Shirts

    Sure are! TM Lewin Fully Fitted shirts are slimmer than both and typically come in below the $50 price point. I've seen them dip as low as $30 a piece when buying around 4 or 5 depending on the sale. Quality is similar to CT in my experience. I've never tried BB mainline (the 346 stuff seems...

    Banana Republic Friends & Family (50% off) - Code Request Thread

    There was a practically identical thread posted in another forum that convinced a BR manager to stop lurking and post an offer (he literally said he was a long time lurker and that he signed up specifically to jump in on that thread and offer his codes). That might not happen here, but then...

    Banana Republic Friends & Family (50% off) - Code Request Thread

    Listen, if you don't agree with this thread and think it's damaging or wrong, go ahead and report it and let the mods decide, but please don't keep posting to ridicule me. This thread is potentially a helpful one. If you want to troll, please take it elsewhere.

    Banana Republic Friends & Family (50% off) - Code Request Thread

    Believe it or not, some employees have codes and are willing to offer them to others on forums like this; I figured I'd start a thread for that purpose. I don't see a need for negativity, so please don't bring it here.

    Banana Republic Friends & Family (50% off) - Code Request Thread

    The Banana Republic Friends & Family event is right around the corner (next weekend IIRC): Banana Republic employees are allotted a certain amount of F&F coupon codes to distribute as they choose; all they'll need to do is enter your email into the system and it'll send you one of said codes...

    The Definitive Guide to Slim Fit Shirts

    If I'm being honest, I haven't checked prices very recently, I'm just going from recollection. The reason I mentioned those options (there are more) is because even if everything is pretty darn close on the TML, CT, Pink, whatever, something is always still a little bit off. If a shop is...

    The Definitive Guide to Slim Fit Shirts

    At $75 a piece, I might start looking towards MTM stuff... if time isn't a factor and you have a shirt that fits perfectly, most places will duplicate said shirt if you send it to them. Places like Modern Tailor, My Tailor, Ratio, etc come to mind. You may end up paying slightly more, but the...

     I must have just missed it on your website. Can you copy/paste the US shipping/return info for those of us in the States?

     Safe to assume you don't ship to the US?

    Brooks Brothers - Made to Measure Vs Off the Rack

    I was in a BB 346 store not that long ago looking at suits and the attendant mentioned that they have a MTM program. I know for a fact that there aren't any non outlet (346) stores in the area so she was obviously indicating that they offer it at that store (I assume for 346 suits). I didn't...
