    Wooden Soled Shoes?

    I was at a Nordstrom a few years ago and remember seeing shoes that I believe had a wooden sole. This intrigues me, and I was wondering if anyone knew of any brands that made shoes with wooden soles (something like an oxford).

    Spending a week in Palm Beach, any good thrift stores?

    I'm going on spring break in Palm Beach this next week and was wondering if there were any good thrift stores in that area? I really need a new pair of shoes, but can't afford anything new. I figure I can find something nice in such a high money area.

    Can I shrink and soften a linen shirt?

    I just bought a linen shirt from Saks on sale, but it's slightly bigger than I'd like (size doesn't get smaller than a small) and isn't as soft as other linen. What's the best way to soften the fabric? and is it possible to shrink the shirt in the wash? I'll get it tailored if need be, but...

    Anyone happy with itailor.com?

    I searched on here and found that some people have ordered shirts from itailor.com, but was wondering if anyone could really vouch for their quality, and really had any pictures of the shirts you've ordered. I'd love it if I could order such a custom shirt for so little. Most other bespoke...

    Driving Gloves

    For starters, I recently acquired a 1989 Xj6. A car filled with luxury, and in these colder months, I can't help but want some driving gloves. Nothing too expensive. I was wondering of a place where I can find some nice fitted gloves. I actually found a pair at Sears of all places, but they...

    Going without socks

    So, I've gotten a new pair of boat shoes, and they really look best without socks. I'd really like to wear them without socks, but how does one go about dealing with foot sweat? I really don't want to damage my shoes, and I don't want anyone to smell my sweaty feet. (If it matters, I am going...

    Which undershirt shows least?

    I'm about to buy some new undershirts. I know that it's generally not good for the undershirt to be showing, but I almost always wear my shirts with two buttons unbuttoned. Will an undershirt with a v-neck be hidden, or will it still show? Is it best for a crew neck undershirt to show rather...

    Ironing Pleats

    How are side pleats and center pleats on a shirt supposed to be ironed? I've always ironed my pleats all the way down to the shirt's end. Is that the right way? Is their a wrong way? How do you iron the pleats on the sleeve? All the way up to the shoulders?

    My new Oliver Peoples

    I just went to a huge outlet mall outside of Miami, and whilst perusing the sunglasses in OFF 5TH, I found a super pair of authentic Oliver Peoples Corsair Sunglasses, black on black. Normally retailing at $400, I picked them up for $25. Yes, they are real. They have the water spot on the lens...

    Armani vs. Ralph Lauren vs. others

    I recently came into some extra money to use to spend on some clothing. I'd really like a nice dress shirt or polo (whatever is available that I like), by a "good" brand. Within the next two weeks I am going outlet shopping, and I was wondering if Armani is worth it? I don't believe...

    Ralph Lauren Polo Sizes

    Right, so I have four RL polos that I purchased at four different occasions, all labeled a medium in size, and I bought them all at Macys from august 07 to now. Is it strange that they are progressively smaller, in the length, sleeves, and chest? I want to buy some off RL.com, but I want to...

    The Acceptibality of Dress Shirts with Shorts

    Right, well, seeing as I live in Florida it is too hot most of the year to wear long pants and a long sleeve shirt on most days, so I simply wear my long sleeve shirts, mostly dress, when I go out with my RL Gellar cargo shorts, and my Sperry Top-Sider boat shoes. I never tuck my shirt in, and...

    A good casual shoe

    What is a good casual shoe to wear when you go out to lunch during the day, a quick run to the store for groceries. Something preferably leather, something that still looks casual enough to go to the mall in, but something that can still be called formal when compared to a tennis shoe or...
