    They have your money since 2017? That's shocking. It amounts to theft.

    The Definitive MANBAG Thread, Part II: 2014~

    So, I am lucky to be able to walk to work, about 2.5 km. Until now I would walk in in my work clothes (suited and booted) but these days I prefer to wear casuals on the way in and get changed in my office. I own some nice casual bags but none of them were quire the thing for when I had a bigger...

    Briefcase Appreciation thread

    Just to let people know (especially UK/EU) Henry Tomkins has a nice looking case going for a great price following a return by a client who seems to have changed their mind. He's looking for offers on a simple brown single gusset briefcase. I have one if his cases and the quality is great. He's...

    I'd be a big fan of Frank Clegg at that price point too, and in general. I have a black zip-top and tan english. Both double gusset. Great quality and I anticipate owning them for life. They're really outstanding value. I looked long and hard and could not find better in or around the price...

    I like brown leather brogues with jeans.

    Briefcase Appreciation thread

    I love them and truly admire the craftsmanship even though fir me personally they are not right for my look. I work in an extremely formal environment, which some might think would suit one of these well. However I find this style of case runs my look too close for comfort to a "costume". Just...

    @MenWithStyl3 I have the Palissy and like it a lot for a slimline case. I preferred it over the Linder on looks.

    Fit check on shirt/trousers

    @milktoast, that pic with the shoes helps massively. I think you are almost in the zone where it's down to your personal taste. They could be shortened slightly but you need to assess how you'll feel about them when you're sitting as well. Personally, I don't like anything 'pooling' down there...

    Fit check on shirt/trousers

    I generally find it hard/impossible to assess trouser length without seeing them worn with shoes because it's all about the break but that does look pretty good. I find the shirt fit good around your torso, certainly not too tight. I was about to say that unfortunately the arms are definitely...

    Help with the fit and colors of this suit

    Thanks Johnny it only took me 25 or so years of wearing ties (I suppose more like 18/20 for suits) or so to get those things right! I couldn't agree more with your comments on the shoes. Captain - we want invites to the wedding at this stage!

    Help with the fit and colors of this suit

    By button down I did indeed mean at the collar. I do appreciate and understand the look (with a tie) - I want to say it's kind of preppy? - and don't get me wrong it can look very sharp and clean cut but it's not for me, esoecially with a suit. I think it looks more suited for a sport coat and...

    Help with the fit and colors of this suit

    Don't sweat the grooms men's shirts too much. No need for exact matches. You'll be the one in the most important photographs of the day that's why you haveva think about how your look will work with the dress. The idea of an ivory or cream shirt is also something that can really elevate a tweed...

    I just saw your further posts and obviously huge congratulations are in order - best wishes and I hope you have a fantastic day and a wonderful life together. Turning back to your tie, I would absolutely urge you not to get bogged down in the idea of what would be "acceptable" for a groom as...

    Briefcase Appreciation thread

    Here are some snaps of my recently acquired "Full Monty" made by Henry Tomkins in black with gun metal fittings. I went with black as that's my general preference for a briefcase I will use in work (trial lawyer) going to and from consultations and the like based on my general work wardrobe...

    I like the way his waistcoat ties with the jacket - brings it all together. Good shirt and tie combo too especially with the non matching trousers.

    Hey look you didn't ask about your outfit so I actually edited my reply because what business is it of mine and you were not asking that question. But as you ask now, I meant to refer to the second button hole from the top on the waistcoat. Now I realise it probably has some function that I...
