    Help me improve my MTM suit fit

    A few months ago, I got my firt 3-piece suit from a MTM outfit. The process was pretty difficult. Granted, the MTM maker was satisfactory in general: nice fabrics, nice detailing, affordable price. The sellers were not very knowledgeable or helpful, though, and I had to have quite a few changes...

    Restaurant recommandations in LA and SF

    A friend of mine is going on a 3-week vacation in the US starting next week. He'll be touring California, Nevada and several other places. I know he will stop in LA and SF, and I was wondering what kind of restaurant recommandations the collective wisdom of the forum can come up with.

    Suit care

    I have recently dramatically improved the quality and number of my suits. I also have a new job which involves wearing a suit much more often. I'd also like to improve my suit-care habits... I know the basics: brush the suit as often as possible, don't wear it two days in a row, but let it...

    I am considering buying a nice leather jacket these days. Baron Boutique has a nice one (they sell it as a "movie replica" from Minority Report), fourth one down on this page. Has anybody tried it? I am a little wary of the quality of the leather, the fit, the finishing... What's the general...

    Good books on working-out principles

    In the past few years I have tried to take my body more seriously. That included a diet to depart from my skinny self (went from 151 lbs to 200 in a few years, for 6"4) and, in the last 2-3 years, a semi-regular work-out at the gym. I have picked up quite a lot from trainers and various...

    White tie

    I have recently been invited to a friend's wedding in a few months' time. I expect most guests to be wearing a suit during the day and a DJ at night, but my friend will be wearing a bespoke white tie at night (and possibly a morning suit during the day). Now, this could be just the excuse I...

    Cufflinks on eBay

    I know we have specialists here who know how to find a perfect pair of cufflinks. As a novice myself, I thought I would re-start a thread to compare our finds. I have recently lost almost all my cuffkinks in a burglary and am rebuilding a collection. I picked up 3 pairs in Murano glass (from a...
