Stiffness gone from shirt collar - any easy fixes?
Most of my shirts were purchased 4-5 years ago from a custom tailor who had them made up in Hong Kong. The interlining in the collars on my favourites have gone floppy from use and laundering.

Where to get durable replacement toggles for my duffle coat?

Trouble with a Hatter - Ethical Considerations
I find myself in a bit of a dilemma... I had a revered Ohio-based hatter re-block a very beaten brown trilby. The results were flawless with the exception of the placement of the bow of the ribbon hat band. The bow is placed an inch or so behind the centre of the side of the hat, to such an...- orangehaggis

At what point should one ask for a custom tailoring remake?
I'm a long time reader but a brand new SF member. I recently bought a custom three piece suit from a reputable custom tailoring firm here in Northeastern Ohio.
