    Recommendation for carry-on luggage

    I have the same Tumi 22" roll-aboard mentioned in post #20, and I have had a mixed experience. The quality of construction and style is very high, but it falls forward when I don't hold the handle, even without anything in the front pocket. If I do put even a modest load in front, it...

    I Just Bought a... (Wine, Spirit, or Beer)

    I'm going to pick a bottle or two of the Bouchard 2005 Chardonnay. Do you have any experience with this one? I tasted through the 2005 and 2006 Bouchard lineups at the Domaine last year. I was generally impressed at all levels, and find Bouchard to be a particular value - along with Boillot -...

    Sure, no worries. This fabric is $125 to $130 per shirt at MyTailor.com. I did an initial order of 4 shirts.

    Please Critique Fit of MyTailor.com Shirt

    Thanks Threadbearer. This is Thomas Mason Silverline, in one of the classic stripe patterns. The pattern did not come across very well in the pics, but I'm happy with it. The fabric itself seems a bit "light or thin" and not quite as soft a hand as I might have hoped. I plan on going with Twill...

    Please Critique Fit of MyTailor.com Shirt

    I thought about the arm hole dimensions. With my "full figure" I'm more comfortable with a bit of room here. I've tired on Borrelli, Kiton, Barba and some other Neapolitan brands and find that the cuts are a bit too snug for me. FreeFinancial's question about collar height is a good one. I'm...

    Please Critique Fit of MyTailor.com Shirt

    Thanks. Yes, I'm going to evaluate the sleeves when I wear it to work for a full day. They may indeed need to be a bit longer. And I will move the buttons to tighten up the cuffs a bit.

    Please Critique Fit of MyTailor.com Shirt

    Yes, I did notice the sweat mark. I always wear an undershirt when at work or out of the house. But did not put one on for the pics as I did not want that to distort the structure. I live in Miami Beach and its hot down here.....

    Please Critique Fit of MyTailor.com Shirt

    I would appreciate suggestions on potential alterations to the fit of this shirt from MyTailor.com. I was measured in person by Mr. Sam. This is the second shirt in the initial series. The first shirt was generally too big, and they will recut it when we have settled on final measurements...
