    NEW Paul Stuart "Stuart Ltd" Hand Tailored Sport Coat by OXXFORD CLOTHES Sz 38R 38

    Hello, I don’t particularly know much about it but it was/is the high end hand tailored line. The standard Paul Stuart garments made by Samuelsohn are very nice but these LTD ones are more of a fully handmade garment with hand sewn buttonholes etc. They would use different makers. I don’t think...

    Are Brooks Brothers 1818 Makers and Merchant Suits Half Canvass or Fused?

    My experience has been they are half-canvassed, having owned a handful of both US and Italian made versions.

    Are these shoes shell cordovan?

    I found the listing on ebay, could tell those are listing photos. Hope I’m not bearing bad news to you if you bought them, but they aren’t shell. Allen Edmonds has used a burgundy corrected grain leather that easily fools people in photos (Especially if still new and haven’t creased yet). This...

    In search for the right Burgundy tassel loafers

    The first thing that came to mind was Carmina’s rubi shade of shell cordovan. The shell tassel loafer of theirs does not have a split toe. Interesting because the photo of them on their website looks more brown, but all the non-stock photos I’ve seen people take makes the color seem more like...

    In Search of Loafer from Italy

    I have a few pairs of Ferragamo Tramezza and always find Ferragamo in general to be about 1 width small. My shoes are EE which I think is more like a E. My pairs are close to 10 years old so maybe not even sound advice today. Nothing wrong with Ferragamo but I would be more intrigued to look at...

    Who made this Vacca suit?

    Would need to post the size/content label to help determine.

    Which era is this vintage Brooks Brothers label from?

    Yes that's the union label. You can narrow down an age range based on that label. Googling some of the words on the label there should lead to some sites with guides. Brooks Brothers was excellent quality during this time, which often accounts for older guys complaining about the label's...

    Which era is this vintage Brooks Brothers label from?

    I have a made to order suit dated 1964 with that label. I think this label was also used earlier than that. If you have the garment in hand and can check the pockets for a union label that may help.

    Questions About Recently Purchased Testoni Shoes

    Someone please feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the stitching inside the shoe indicates blake construction.

    Advice please: mould on leather shoe soles

    I had this happen to a few pairs during current times when many of us are wearing dress shoes less often. I used a Clorox wipe to gently wipe it away, not applying too much pressure in case it may remove the edge dressing color, etc. and being careful not to touch the uppers with the wipe. Also...

    The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread Part III (Sept 2018-)

    I remember when these first came out Kanye was photographed wearing them, so they had a really good resale value for Vans. Nice thing about Vans is that they usually clean up very well. A bit of elbow grease with an old toothbrush and you can get all the dirt off the rubber.

    Help me find this tie please

    Going to take a guess it's Tom Ford as I have a similar one. Those lapels look like they could be Tom Ford. Perhaps the whole outfit is.

    Can you tell if these are Goodyear or Blake Rapid Stitched?

    My understanding has always been Tramezza = Goodyear, Lavorazione Originale = Blake but maybe it is not safe to make that broad statement. In the few pairs I have, that does hold true. Closely inspect the shoes and try to find the seam where the welt and sole meet. Here is a photo of 2 pairs of...
