    RM Williams Boots 9.5D (AU 8.5G)

    Selling a pair of RM Williams chukka boots. Used, but in nice shape. Marked size 8.5G. I'd say they fit about like a US 9.5D. I wear a 10D AE PA and these fit a bit on the snug/short side. Not sure the details of the style or leather. Plain calf as far as I can tell. Fully lined. The leather is...

    Sierra Designs 60/40 Parka Size Small

    Sierra Designs 60/40 parka. Size small. I'd say it fits like a 38 or maybe a slim 40S (see measurements below). I take a 40 or 41R and I can rock it, just a bit snug. Mostly the sleeves are too short for me. Great fit, much better than the Woolrich, IMO. Getting ready to move, trying to shift a...

    BBBF BB0 University/Bengal Stripe Button Down

    Brooks Brothers Black Fleece button down. Size BB0. I took a flyer on this and it doesn't fit me. Used, but in nice shape. Nothing crazy, just a great, staple shirt for a smaller guy than me. Price includes USPS priority shipping to CONUS. Measurements: Shoulder: 16 in Back length (boc)...

    Where do you wear your pants.. like where do you put the waist?

    A decent pair of pants on the true waist can also add some shape to your butt. Besides, a long torso stacked on short legs (29's shorted to who knows what) looks just as silly as any imagined short torso. If you look like the Penguin then accept as much as no pants witchery will change that...

    The official THRIFT STORE tips and best practices thread

    I've also had success making a slurry with color safe bleach (powder), rubbing that into a stain, and then washing as normal. Managed to remove a pretty hard set stain on the placket of shirt. The slurry is abrasive, so you can work the stain a bit with your fingers to get the scrubbing action.

    Trafalgar

    I have a made in US Trafalgar belt that compares favorably to made in US Coach. Very nice I'd say, holding up very well.

    Can anyone suggest where to get a reasonably affordable (say, <~$60 USD) glove in the style here: http://bp3.blogger.com/_qjpwnPW4c1o/...lglovesweb.jpg Most interested in the natural color and the detailing on the back of the hand (that seems to be the hardest element to find). The reverse...

    The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

    Goodwill in Rockville MD (off of Montrose Rd) must have gotten a whole pile of stuff from the same guy. Couple of Brioni odd jackets, Canali jacket, Oxxford tux, Oxxford suit or two, some Brioni shirts, some Paul Frederick shirts, a Borrelli shirt, tons of AEs in 12.5 AAA, a pair of patent...

    stranger compliments

    (we're talkin gs-14s and 15s). Even those at the top of the GS scale are not sartorial or financial ballers, I'm surprised they even wear suits vs. polo/slacks. I try to always wear a suit when I fly for work. On a weekend, that almost always draws a compliment and has even kicked off a few...

    Sweater vest - Do or don't ?

    I went to high school with a shirt/tie/slacks dress code. There were a few guys who rocked the sweater vest sometimes. It looked fine. I guess it stood out since I still remember, but not in a bad way. I agree with several posters who suggest that it's very much &quot;image&quot; based at the...

    Tailor in the reston virginia area?

    Scot, you may be asking for something that doesn't exist. The reason that Field's comes up all the time is because you're talking to a limited number of people (those on this Forum in the NoVA/DC/MD area) and asking for a very specific thing (a tailor who does quality work [90-95% as good as...

    Tailor in the reston virginia area?

    Yeah, the guy on the third floor (Mr. Sun's isnt it?) of Tyson's II is so-so in my opinion. Great turnaround time, reasonable price, decent job on some hems/waists, but he did a pretty lazy job (IMO) on the lining of several jackets (had them let out a bit to fit my gut). And he is not...

    Where Should I Buy A Rolex?

    I am no lawyer either, and the area seems a bit gray, but I think that falls into the MSRP/price fixing/price maintenance bucket and runs afoul of anti-trust laws (in the U.S.)

    FS/FT: Church's custom grade, 10 G [E]

    10 G if I read the stamping correctly, which is Church's 'wide' width (as opposed to 'normal/medium') I picked these up here a few weeks back, intending to have them resoled, but they just keep getting pushed to the back burner. So, I'm turning them loose if there's interest. I wear a 10D AE...

    Is this Kiton tie too "fancy" for a young professional?

    Is the world of investment banking that sensitive and acute (I'm really asking)? As a young guy in consulting, I think two things when I see someone well put together (that is, considering more than just the tie): 1) They care 2) They're capable of doing something about it There is really no...

    Can you comment on the fit of the Church's? I wear a 10D AE PA, I'm wondering how they might compare?
