    Does anyone here use the Valextra Premier briefcase? I'm looking for a modern briefcase to carry a laptop, legal pad, and possibly a small redwell of documents. I like this design very much, but want to hear whether folks who own it like it before I pull the trigger and have one made up...

    Minimalist Stereo Rec.

    I know nothing about audio equipment. Nothing. I have had something that played music in probably 10 years. So take pity and help me identify something I can place on a shelf in my office that will play music I like (either streaming or from a CD). Here are the requirements: 1. My highest...

    Aubercy Shoes - My Best Paris Experience

    I've never made a post like this before, but my experience in Paris earlier this month at Aubercy requires one now. My first day in Paris I stopped by the Aubercy shop to look around. The shoes were stunning. So much so that my wife was only a little bored. I had a brilliant time walking...

    Casual Shoes for Summertime in Paris

    As the title suggests, I'm spending some time in Paris this summer. Typically, I'm either dressed up (think Edward Green cap toes) or dressed very down (think new balance sneakers). I'd like to pick up a couple of pairs of shoes I could wear walking through Paris during the day that will be...

    Jodphur Boot Help

    I'm in the maket and simply can't find something that is both (1) in stock and (2) well-made. I am trying to keep this purchase under $800, if possible. Everyone appears to be out of the Crocket & Jones boot. Anybody have any suggestions of where I can find something decent without waiting...

    I have been looking for a dark blue and white Prince of Whales check (or similar) tie with a yellow overcheck for quite some time, but can't find one. Is there some way to have one made up? If so, does anyone have an idea where I might find such a fabric? Thanks very much

    Slim Fit Raincoat to Wear Over a Suit

    I am in NYC and it is raining. It makes me realize that I have nothing to wear during the spring, summer, and fall when it is raining out. What I need is something I can wear over a suit or sportcoat without overheating. The catch is that it has to be slim fitting. I take a 36R in Phineas Cole...
