    With extra material, can a tailor add size to suit pants thigh/crotch area?

    Gents, So I ordered a made-to-measure suit and it's 90% perfect except the upper thigh/crotch area is just a bit too tight to the point where I have to suck in just a bit to button the trousers and can't really squat. So this raises my question: If I ask the company to send me a few feet of...

    Cutaway Spread with no tie?

    Hello Gents, As the title states, have any of you had any experience wearing a cutaway spread collar with no tie? --- Does it work? I'm less concerned about the aesthetics and more so having it work with under a blazer. IE fitting properly within the jacket collar. Any help would be...

    Help me zone in on the right boot.

    Gents, Hope everyone is doing well. --- Long story short, I'm looking for a vintage-esque boot that may be akin to the pictures below. -- Looks like Redford has some kind of motorcyle boot on or maybe even a cowboy boot. David Crosby seems to have some kind of hybrid boot as well. I'm looking...

    Camel Coat Ideas

    Comrade, Can't say I wouldn't mind it! ----Muslinski, Thank You for the reccomendation but that looks a bit darker than what I had in mind. I came across this from J Crew: http://www.jcrew.com/mens_category/outerwear/topcoats/PRDOVR~05660/05660.jsp?color_name=saddle Looks pretty...

    Camel Coat Ideas

    Good Evening Boys, So I'm looking for a camel coat this winter.----- However, I'm a bit picky and frustrated in finding any jackets that fit the criteria I'm looking for, so I was hoping somebody out there might be able to steer me in the right direction. I'm open to a pea coat or slightly...

    Anybody have experience with Eames Lounge Replicas from Ebay?

    Hey guys, So yeah basically I'm looking for an Eames Lounge replica, within the 500-600 price range.... and clearly understand the nature of buying a replica and the risk that comes along with it. Just as others have stated, I can't justify spending thousands on a chair so I've found this on...

    Magnanni/ To Boot alternatives?

    Gentleman, I'm looking for a pair of dress oxfords with a modern, sleek, profile. I'm looking for something akin to a Magnanni or a To Boot New York kind of look. But the kicker is, these shoes are slightly out of my price range. I'm looking to spend about in the $300 range and I understand...

    Trouser Finish/Leg Opening

    OK thanks guys... but more specifically: What can I convey to the tailor in terms of specifications and dimensions? How can I quantify this? Meaning, is there a specific dimension that I can bring to my tailor for bringing in the lower leg taper or even possibly a circumfrence of the leg hole...

    Trouser Finish/Leg Opening

    Hello Gents, So in my quest for uncovering the secret to perfect fitting trousers, I've come to a bit of a roadblock. I've found dress pants that are tapered through the leg and undoubtedly "slim", but I'm having some issues with the finish and leg opening on my pants. So regarding this, I...

    Less "Douchey" alternative to the Boat Shoe?

    Thanks for all the responses, gentleman. Much appreciated. I'm kind of digging these: http://shop.vans.com/catalog/Vans/en_US/style/sfo.html?categoryId=65121&colorCode=SFO7ES Or just might spring and finally get the pair of allen edmonds suede neumoks I've always lusted over.... or probably...

    Who makes the best slim fit pants in this price range?

    Cotton trousers with a bit of a sheen and light fabric might do the trick, however, I'm also thinking all the way to the spectrum of wool pants as well. A truly slim fit similiar to Bonobos would be in order, and I'm leaning towards their slimmest cut of the slim straight. My price range would...

    Less "Douchey" alternative to the Boat Shoe?

    Thanks for the responses guys... and yes I knew that was coming regarding sneakers haha.. I moreso meant running shoes/nikes with jeans.. I'm actually warming up to a pair of vans slip-ons. Anyway.. I think these are some good responses. I have a pair of nubuck oxfords and suede bucs, which I...

    Less "Douchey" alternative to the Boat Shoe?

    Hey Stylers, So I live in a pretty urban area and I've just taken to riding a ten speed road bike around town. I'm not necessarily a racer, but more of a float around with friends or admiring the local female population over beers etc. kind of rider. Long story short, I find it too difficult...

    Who makes the best slim fit pants in this price range?

    Hey Stylers, So I'm going to be springing on a bunch of new gear for a new position at a bank this week. Business casual.. but I like to be more on the dressy side. Anyway, I'm pretty dead set on picking up a couple of pairs or Bonobos' "Weekday Warriors" seen here...

    Versatile Alternatives to Aldo

    I really like what Loake has to offer. It seems more versatile to me than Alllen Edmonds. I love AE shoes, I really do. It just seems like the majority of what they have sort of varies in shape and 90 % of what they have are wingtip/stitced kind of style. Loake is pretty much what I was looking...

    Versatile Alternatives to Aldo

    Hey Gents, So I know how most of you feel about Aldo around here.. and that's totally fine with me, but I'd prefer some objectivity here and not another bash fest. Anyways, having said that, I just want to premise this by saying that I actually admire the style of some of their shoes. They...

    Need some Chelsea boot opinions.

    Hey everyone, first post on the forums.. so I apologize about the sloppy picture presentation. Anyways, so I've really been digging the chelsea boot look and just sprung on a pair from Banana Republic. For some reason, they run extremely big, I'm talking full size up. I usually wear a 10.5 or 11...
