    The Official Drakes knock-off thread - look-alikes and the producers behind Drakes

    I recently purchased a pair of socks in 80% wool, 10% cashmere, and 10% silk from the Drakes London store. After a few wears and washes, they have quickly become my favourite pair of socks, being relatively thick, warm, and with comfortable ribbing that stays up. I'd like to pick up more, but...

    Zee's Leatherware & Shoe Co.

    I last visited in November 2022 to get a resole of a pair of boots made in 2011. On a side note, these boots have probably been worn once per week for the last ~12 years and are still going strong; with last year's resole, the uppers will probably last 12 more years. I can also confirm it's the...

    Lightweight raw denim jeans / high waisted & straight fit

    Hi all. I am new to raw denim. I have previously only worn washed and cheaper jeans. I will soon be traveling to Japan (Osaka and Kyoto) and would like to purchase one pair of jeans with the following details: - Type: Japanese raw denim - Weight: Lightweight (i.e. 12oz or lower) - Colour...

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    These look great! Both the colour of the frames and the lenses. The bright colour seems to exaggerate the cat-eye effect, compared to the Dealans in black for example, but it definitely works on you.

    The Hong Kong BaoTou Tailors and Fabric Shops for CMT Thread

    Seconding this question. Does anyone in HK make custom knitwear (round necks, polo necks, etc.)?

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    Thanks a lot. With the recent strength of the USD, this is a very compelling price. Separately, how does everyone think about the relative 'value' of JMM's acetate frames versus the metal frames? From my perspective, I see JMM's acetate offerings as being quite differentiated in terms of the...

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    This seems like a slightly less nice version of hickory, and the fade to clear on the temples isn't attractive either. Unfortunately I missed out on Taos hickory a while ago!

    Looks great, but the Plaza looks the best for your face. Where is that pink colour overshirt from, on the picture with Plaza?

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    Thanks all for the comments. Will see if I can try the Dark Havana colour and some of the other models suggested by DWW.

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    Cheers - yes, I wanted to get something complementary to the existing frames. I'm not 100% convinced by the colour, as it seems very similar to my skin tone. I did get to try some other JMMs in black or dark brown colours (I forget the model names but they are about as thick as these Ichikawas)...

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    Recently picked up the JMM Ichikawa in sand a few days ago. Need to get prescription lenses inserted. How does it fit on me? I also attached below a picture of my regular, more circle, frames.

    I don't know about this. But I did manage to buy one from an optical shop in NJ yesterday.

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    Anyone know where to get the Ichikawa in sand (preferred) or havana (less preferred)? Thanks.

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    Thanks. Probably not going to gamble on this, plus the END website doesn't have my preferred colour anyway.

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    Are the Zephirins on the END website confirmed to be the 44s? The support staff do not know the correct answer.

    Cocktails in Hong Kong

    I went to Lily's and thought it had good craft/classic cocktails, very limited menu though. The hidden cigar room is pretty cool. The ambience and crowd of Lily's is a lot better than its menu or cocktail preparation. It's a nice place to hang with friends and sip some Scotch after finishing...

    Cocktails in Hong Kong

    Most places in Hong Kong are pretty bad for cocktails (eg. I asked for an Old Fashioned the other day and I got 4 oz of Jack Daniels, crushed ice, lime cordial and sugar stirred into the drink). Thus I usually stick with bottled beer or neat scotch. Does anyone have any places to recommend for...

    Shirt/Tie combination?

    solid navy is your best bet for that shirt.

    Viccel.com socks

    Hi, I am from Hong Kong. I'd like to clarify: I want 5 100% cotton "winter weight" socks; does that mean 9.59 * 5 = USD 47.95 because shipping is free? Please confirm, as I want to place an order soon. Also, are these socks completely opaque? (Otherwise I'd rather get the merino.)
