    Will orthopedic inserts prevent you from wearing great shoes?

    My feet are a wreck from decades of marathon running. I wear orthotics in all my shoes with no problems (Alden, Santoni, Martegani, RM Williams, Lucchese). Ask for running or cycling shoe orthotics. They will be low profile, and you can actually wear them in your running or cycling shoes. Bonus!

    Whoa. Looks like a robe.

    I am also in West TX and have had the same experience as you. I pretty much only buy suits & jackets when I travel nowadays.

    Bike Riders Help

    Rain suit or some kind of downhill pants from a mountain bike shop are a good option. They are sized to fit over other clothing, and have adjustable ankle closures, etc. Just because it ain't rainin when you leave home doesn't mean it won't be when you leave work . . . .

    Dress me like a Dean

    Many excellent replies! The job will indeed entail meeting with the faculty, community leaders, the occasional legislative delegation, president, regents etc., as well as students, postdocs and so on. I will also need to be ready to meet with the press on short notice - significant...

    Dress me like a Dean

    Or perhaps, as a snooty academic, I should say "Dress me as a Dean would dress". I'm about to take a job as a research dean at a medical school in the southwestern US. It's a pretty casual place (high desert, lots of folks in cowboy boots, etc). It will be my first obligate full-time...

    How do you wear an ID badge with a suit?

    Requirement to wear an ID badge is ubiquitous in my field (healthcare). For you other badge slaves out there, how do you wear it day after day without ruining your coat? On your lapel? Pocket? Around your neck on a lanyard? Belt loop? Any slick tailor tips (like maybe a loop behind the...

    Thanksgiving Dress Code

    Jeans, boots, chambray shirt and a big apron. Slinging hash in a soup kitchen in Galveston today. Far less tedious than sitting around staring at my extended family. Poor Galveston. Still quite a mess down there.

    Casual Shoes for Rainy/Snowy Weather?

    If you're from Texas, you should be wearing ropers or Blundstones . . . Anything in shell cordovan would be appropriate (eg., Alden), or maybe some duck shoes from LL Bean if you're really committed to the boatie style.

    "Masked Black Tie" Masquerade Ball

    LOL. If that snorkel really goes into an armpit it would make for a long night if I have to dance much. The O2 mask might have some merit though.

    "Masked Black Tie" Masquerade Ball

    Soooo . . . . I have to go to a benefit for a community foundation, honoring a couple of surgeons, and this is the dress. How should one approach it? Black tie, obviously. But the rest? Dispense with the mask altogether? Stick a Lone Ranger mask in a pocket just in case other people are...

    Which nightclub outfit should I wear to the disco? A, B or C?

    Given the petroleum products involved, only the very rich could afford these garments at today's crude prices.

    2" Cuffs

    I think they are great with a heavier cloth and little if any break. They are less forgiving of pants cut too long.

    RMW Comfort Craftsman - a few questions

    I bought a pair of Comfort Craftsman (chestnut) in the NYC store on Thursday. I went in intending to buy the regular Craftsman, but after trying both on and talking to the guy there, I went with the CC. The CCs are MUCH more comfortable, and the visual difference a foot away from the mirror is...

    Ron Rider's Boots - Soon to be Available (PICS)

    Two thoughts: 1) Many of Ron's boots are going to be made in shell cordovan, which many people prefer to calfskin for wet conditions due to its durability 2) I believe if you check his blog he's offering a dainite sole-type option - getting away from the leather sole will help somewhat. And if...

    Ron Rider's Boots - Soon to be Available (PICS)

    Im hesitant to put that nice of leather in wet conditions. Put a cap like a sole-tech or a topy on there and you should be in good shape for wet weather.
