    A few beginner suit questions

    Hello folks...need to buy a suit for my wedding and I am in dire need of help. I am very tall and slim (6'5" 170 lbs), 29 yrs old. I am trying to find an excellent looking slim fitting suit. I have a suit I got about 10 years ago at Men's Wearhouse, but it is WAY to boxy and big for me, and I...

    Women's style - blouse for a busty woman?

    Jantzen does ladies' shirts, fyi. Thanks, I'll look into that...any other suggestions? To everyone else: sorry, you'll have to jack off to pics of someone else's gf.

    Women's style - blouse for a busty woman?

    I thought maybe you guys would have some ideas. My girlfriend is quite well endowed (34 E), but fairly slim around the waist. She owns no blouses, since it's been impossible for her to find a button down shirt that fits through the chest but is tailored in the waist. Shirts that fit her chest...

    Jeans to balance out the bottom for a skinny guy?

    I'm tall and skinny. My girlfriend says I need a slight flare to the bottom of my jeans (like a boot cut) to balance that out. I agree it looks much better when I have jeans that do this. The problem is, all that fabric usually just ends up flapping around my ankles. I think it's because I have...

    The Lanky Man's Redemption

    As a tall and lanky man (6'4" 165lbs) living in the USA and in possession of a budding consciousness of fashion, I've been positivel terrorized by the clothing of the mainstream. I've probably spent thousands of dollars on jeans that were too baggy and dress shirts with sleeves too short and...

    Outdoorwear / coat questions (tall, thin)

    I'm 6'4" 175 lbs, i.e. quite tall and wiry (I prefer that to "skinny" since I have some muscle definition, lol). Finally found a car-coat that's well fitting, from Banana Republic. It's Medium-Tall, and I would need to have the sleeves extended about 1" (can they do that on wool coats?), but...

    Winter coats for the tall and skinny?

    Can you suggest a place? A few years ago I ordered some MTM shirts from a place recommended on this forum (forget the name) and they didn't end up fitting well, leading me to be skeptical.

    Winter coats for the tall and skinny?

    What kind of extra tailoring would you say I'd need? Let the sleeves longer and take the waist in? How do I know what kind of tailoring to get? Aren't there any slim fit topcoats?

    The Definitive Guide to Slim Fit Shirts

    Hey - any leads on common US department stores that stock some of these brands and would have tall/slim sizes in stock? I've had so many shirt buying disasters that I feel the need to try it on before I buy. I've tried to find shirts in Nordstrom before, but they usually just stock the XL type...

    Winter coats for the tall and skinny?

    After wearing my North Face jacket all of last year, I am really thinking I need to buy something more "adult" for this winter. However being 6'4" and 165 lbs, I find most coats are way too capacious and not long enough in the arms. Any suggestions on a winter jacket that may...

    casual footwear for fall/winter

    So I've looked at boots, and I want to avoid them. I'd rather get something kind of like my Tigers, which can be worn comfortably in summer as well. Like Tigers, but a little heavier with more of an ankle...ideas?

    casual footwear for fall/winter

    Well, I guess I will consider them! Any suggestions?

    casual footwear for fall/winter

    I should note I live in the pacific northwest, so it rarely gets below 40. Boots may not be entirely comfortable/appropriate.... thanks

    casual footwear for fall/winter

    I have some Onitsuka Tigers, in white with blue stripes, but they don't seem especially appropriate for jeans with sweaters or long sleeved shirts. Any suggestions? Casual...comfortable...relatively cheap...preferably an earth tone instead of white. Help me out!

    Best Henley?

    Good question...let me add on...anyone know of Henleys sold in a medium-tall size (or medium with equivalently long arms)?

    Essential beachwear?

    I'm going to be in Hawaii for a week. I've never been to a tropical place before, and the only swimsuit I have is the lycra one I use for triathlons. What, in your mind, is essential beachwear for a tropical vacation? I'm thinking: White Linen Pants, like this...

    Alcohol/Exercise buffer period?

    If you want to gain weight, don't worry about having a glass of wine or two. Just eat like a ******* pig. You won't gain muscle without gaining some fat too, but with your metabolism it should be easy to cut the fat afterward. Just beware...for skinny guys, diet is 90% of the issue, what you...

    Best electric razor?

    I am tired of shaving with a blade. The cuts, the bumps, ugh. I want to move to electric, or at least have the option to use electric once in a while. I want to know the BEST electric razor that money can buy.
