    Can I tell if I'm wearing my trousers too high?

    They look a little high for me. I don't wear my trousers at the height of my first jacket button.

    Avoiding sweat patches

    I had a thread on here a long time ago, back when I had time to participate, about sweating. In the warm months I sweat a lot. I have been using Certain-Dri and it really helps to keep me from sweating. It does cause iritation. I had not been using it during the winter but now that it has warmed...

    Buttons on sleeve of overcoat

    Thanks for the replies. I have been using the address in my bookmarks and didn't know the forum was still up. The tailor told me there is not enough material to make functional buttons and since non-working buttons seem to bug me lately I decided not to add anything. It is only a knee-length...

    tag heuer carrera

    I am talking about Orvis, not Oris. They are in the $75-$200 range. I don't really know anything about them but have been told that they hold up well.

    I have been told that the Orvis watches are built well. They have a few that look somewhat like the carrera.

    Buttons on sleeve of overcoat

    I bought a black Ralph Lauren wool overcoat. It is more of a car coat/town coat I guess as it is not full length. This coat has no buttons on the sleeves. The full length coats had buttons on their sleeves. Is there a rule or something to where short coats don't get buttons. I need to take...

    Antiperspirant

    I use certain dri. If I use it regularly it causes burning, itching, and redness. Since it has turned cold I have not been using it but will probably start up again in the spring. I am still thinking of going ahead with the botox injections to stop the sweating if the irritation gets bad from...

    Collecting cuff links...

    I have been wanting to start collecting cufflinks. The trouble is all the ones I end up liking costs way more than I am willing to pay. My favorite pair I have right now are sterling silver fluer de lis' from Mignon Faget. I found a pair of tortoise shell and gold cufflinks at an antique...

    Restaurant Recommendations

    New Orleans. Arnauds is good, they have a selection of what I would consider to be traditional New Orleans food. My favorite place was Victor's in the Ritz Carlton. They have changed their menu and I don't really like it that much now. The French Quarter Bar in the Ritz Carlton is a fun...

    oxford shirts

    I have some blake shirts as well. The material is smoother, not like the material on a standard oxford. I can't think of a way to describe it right now. On a traditional oxford the material has more texture; tha blake shirts do not have much texture.

    Do *you* own any dockers?

    I have a lot of Polo Chinos. I wear them with a polo shirt when I don't have to dress nice but it is still acceptable to go eat or something. I can put on a Blazer and dress it up a bit if I need to. I can not stand to wear blue jeans/denim. I hate the way they feel and I'm not a cowboy and...

    oxford shirts

    Just about all of mine are ralph lauren yarmouth oxfords. I think that is what they are called. They aren't anything special, i like the way they feel. I've been wearing them forever it seems.

    Chan suits

    Does "Chan" have a website? I have seen pics of suits ordered from him but do no know who he is. From what I can tell you can have yourslef measured and they will make a suit to fit. Is this accurate? I have heard good things about this place http://www.hkbroadwaycustomtailor.com/mailorder.htm...

    What shirt to wear

    Thanks for the replies. I have this Pink-Coral shirt that I wear pretty often b/c I like the way it works with different colors. I think I'll pick up a more pastel or lighter pink shirt and see which I like best. I'm not gay, not that there's anything wrong with that, but some of my simple...

    What shirt to wear

    I am the type that if I am wearing a sports jacket or suit I always wear a tie. I've decided to go tie-less to an event I will be attending. I will be wearing a navy Ralph Lauren SB two-button suit, it has faint pinstripes. I will be wearing cordovan shoes and belt. Since I have decided not to...

    Supplement to assist with weight loss?

    I know it isn't "on topic" but has anyone tried that colon cleaner stuff that removes plaque that lines your system. I recall seeing the "product" produced from its use and it was quite impressive. lol
