45rpm F/W 09
I own the dark brown belt; quality is excellent. It's my go-to belt so I wear it all the time. What you can't tell by looking at the picture is that the belt holes are cut in the shape of tiny whales; I thought it was kind of a neat little detail, and the price is definitely right.- Admiral Kelvinator

T-shirts under collared shirts - is it ever OK?
Wearing a button-down without an undershirt is like going commando in a pair of dress pants, just don't do it folks. Seriously though, if I wear a shirt with the second button undone, I'd much rather have a white shirt peeking through than chest-hair. And if I'm wearing a white shirt, an...- Admiral Kelvinator

Renamed: Labels that should get more love SS09 - First up: Nice Collective, Krane
I don't know if it ever gets outside of Japan, but a line that I recently discovered is "Backlash" by Isamu Katayama. I had never heard of him, but apparently he's quite famous in the Tokyo fashion scene. his stuff is rocker/motorcycle inspired with just enough extra flair to make it interesting...- Admiral Kelvinator

Introducing RJB - Real Japan Blues
I stopped by the RJB store in Daikanyama, Tokyo today to score a red kasuri shirt. Unfortunately, they were out of my size but man, those shirts are AMAZING; very soft and the snaps have a slight pearlescent sheen. The store itself is very, very cool: a "Kramer shirt" paradise, and I mean that...- Admiral Kelvinator

Any idea where I can find normal sized shoes in Tokyo?
I've been in Tokyo a week now gawking at denim etc. and while it is a fantastic city, I'm really regretting not bringing a pair of comfortable walking shoes. The only pair of boots that I brought are starting to come apart at the seams and my feet are killing me! However, most of the Tokyo shoe...- Admiral Kelvinator

Shop The Finest
Stopped by STF today; this place is quite a find. The warehouse is located behind an unmarked metal gate (3013 main st.) and I had to call Ian to let me in. Once inside, the place was in an uproar of organized chaos: jackets, suits, and shoes (Santoni and Sator mostly) were piled up all around...- Admiral Kelvinator

Brioni pure VICUNA blazer! thoughts/advice?
lol...everyone is soooo jealous that this jacket is in my wardrobe, not theirs... While this may explain some of the hatred you are experiencing on SF, you're not doing yourself any favors by consistently adopting this kind of attitude, in addition to shouting VICUNA in your title. You may be a...- Admiral Kelvinator

Flannels and Western shirts
I'm beyond smitten with Iron Heart's flannel from this most recent "season". Did anyone here pick up Iron Heart's new super heavy weight flannel? I wanted to jump on a blue one, but by the time I got around to it they were all gone- Admiral Kelvinator

It saddens me that SF now regularly draws the same trolls that SuFu does. If people have fun with it, it's not a successful troll.- Admiral Kelvinator

Best fitting jeans
That's funny, I think Ed Hardy isn't flashy enough! I always have to bedazzle them a bit. I concur; that's why I'm always careful to rock my Red Monkeys when I go clubbing. Ladies love my geishas...- Admiral Kelvinator

Flannels and Western shirts
While I agree that nice western and flannel shirts can be readily found in thrift stores everywhere, if the OP is really dead set on Japanese repro brands, then 45rpm has some very, very nice flannel shirts this time of year. I have a lightweight Pure Blue Japan flannel shirt from BiG that I love.- Admiral Kelvinator

Holy Grail Items
Dark red suede motorcycle jacket. I also have dreams about a red leather jacket with a cafe racer collar; not in suede though. Holy Grail? Probably a Vicuña overcoat... *sigh*- Admiral Kelvinator

Apolis x Styleforum x Context heavy military shirt: the launch
Hmm, I'm sort of thinking I should have jumped on a medium now instead of a large. Anyone out there in the same, but opposite, boat? ...just in case... I am looking to exchange my medium for a large instead. Please check your PMs. The medium fit is a little too short on me (especially in the...- Admiral Kelvinator

Warm winter coats
if you like Navy inspired cuts, you could try to find a duffle/toggle coat. These are very warm and can often be found fairly cheap. I got mine from Brooks Bros. for around $500.- Admiral Kelvinator

lengthening a Kiton with working buttonholes?
Neverthless, you have failed to mention whether or not any pattern exists. If the cloth has a pattern, you must match the patern on the sleeve to the pattern on the chest/back when changing sleeve length from the armscye. ___ yes it is a blue jacket with red and white windowpane. I hadn't...- Admiral Kelvinator

Thoughts on BB "Suiting Essentials"?
I think some people here perceive Brooks Bros. as rather staid and stuffy i.e. a very "safe" choice to buy a suit from. However, Black Fleece (co-designed by Thom Browne) is very fashion forward (often times too much so.) I agree that Brooks has been really turning itself around lately, I love...- Admiral Kelvinator

lengthening a Kiton with working buttonholes?
Another option is to lengthen the sleeve from shoulder. This is an intriguing idea. Has anyone else done this successfully? Is it possible to add an inch from the shoulder? I'm really glad I asked before making an irreversible mistake.- Admiral Kelvinator

lengthening a Kiton with working buttonholes?
I picked up a Kiton cashmere sportcoat from a consignment shop today that fits beautifully everywhere except that the left sleeve needs to be lengthened by about 1 inch. Normally this would not be a problem, but this jacket has working buttonholes. Now, when I asked my local tailor if it would...- Admiral Kelvinator

Self Edge SF/NY/LA/PDX/MX - Japanese Denim & Leather, Top Notch Basics, Very Nice Jewelry + Eyewear, & More
I have a bit of a quandary on my hands, my f310s just arrived today from SelfEdge in a size 32, and even pre-soak I cannot close the top button. I wear a 32 in PBJ and the SFX5EP and a 31 in Samurai 5000s (which have stretched out considerably). My question is this. Given I cannot do them up...- Admiral Kelvinator
