Stefano Bemer tassel loafers
Majestic pair of Stefano Bemer split-toe tassels. They are either a MTO or bespoke pair, being marked "Per il sig David Laws" and the date 24-9-98, which would make them almost exactly 15 years old. They are however in pristine condition, clearly having received all the care such a pair deserves...- Gosroth

Help me cut this budget (Short version)
TL;DR version: I have 145k yen. Getting MTO suits on a time-limited 50-70% sale. The stuff I want totals 177k. What do I skip? (Assume my wardrobe is totally void of well-fitting tailored clothing. As it's MTO, all details can be changed around). 1. Standard conservative navy business...- Gosroth

MTOing a "teachers suit".
Strolling around the tailors Shinkuku station (there are at least 5-6 of them with easy walking distance from each other) last night I found something rather rare for Tokyo MTO tailors (who mainly carter to the conservative business dress salarymen crowd); a mid-weight domestic-made wool in a darker tan/mustard color...- Gosroth

Determining correct shoe size from a too big shoe?
So as many others I jumped on the Meermin bandwagon and ordered two pairs of shoes. I was advised to pick size UK9 based on my feet measurements (27.3mm x 10.0 mm), but it turns out that there is something about the shoe that just swallows my feet and they are decidedly too big. I'm in the...- Gosroth

A cautionary tale of using the Mac method on brogues with a shoddy brush
(Pictures are reconstruction of events). In trying to breathe some life into my much loved and well-worn Campanile shell brogues (age: 12 years) I decided to give the Mac method (http://theagatineeyelet.wordpress.com/2010/10/05/the-mac-method/) a try. I whipped out what is perhaps not...- Gosroth

Tall & super-slim: Ebay vs MTM vs retail in Japan
Greetings good people. My worry is the same as many others, finding suits and tailored clothing that fit my build (183 cm @ 56 kg). As everyone probably knows, 34 (44 EU) is one of the rarest sizes around, in particular on the second-hand market. Still, once in a blue moon the stars align and...- Gosroth
