    The Avengers! No, it's not a clothes question...

    Gentlemen, I need your assistance in a matter of utmost urgency. In the link below, the closing theme for season 6 w/ Tara King, a deck of playing cards is used w/ what seems a stylized rabbit silhouette on the back (the back is best seen at approx 1:37+). Does anyone know the manufacturer? A...

    Spectator - which to get?

    Gentlemen - Thank you for your responses and advice. I appreciate the arguments for both sides tend to agree more with the notion that the top pair is more traditional and versatile. So, the top pair is OTW!

    Spectator - which to get?

    Gentlemen - I have a serious dilemma. I have the opportunity to acquire either of the Spectators below and am having a difficult time deciding which to get. Both have a very light cream / almost white suede to compliment the brown leather. Both are from the 1930's-50's. The top pair is Florsheim...

    hmm black suede wingtip ox, this has somehow never occurred to me to want, but now I want one. this looks great, almost blue. Saw a pic of Cary Grant wearing one once and thought it was a nice change from regular calf.

    Tweed in Progress #2

    I don't think the jackets are too short. The photos are obviously taken from higher than the subject (note the floor) which might give the appearance of foreshortening. These jackets are making me reconsider my prohibition against solidish tweeds. I especially like the grey herringbone. What's...

    Tweed in Progress #2

    The OP would appear to have a shortish and somewhat barrel-chested torso, which would account for the proportions of the jackets--they're his proportions. Sadly, what I am is what I am... After 20 yrs in the USMC, I retired w/ a 46" chest, 33, waist and am only 5'8". However, your comment put...

    Tweed in Progress #2

    Which tailor shop is that? And the length is likely fine. Yes, Will Field in Georgetown, DC. I think what may be skewing the perspective of some is that the jackets all have several pins where Will was taking in fabric, etc. Also, the sleeves will be rotated just a bit on 2 of the jackets. I...

    Tweeds in progress.

    That's a very interesting green. Is the color true in the photo? Whose cloth? Color is mostly true - got it from Will at ASW. Very good price too...
