    Baller Alert: 38R Kiton 100% Cashmere Black Classic Tuxedo - BNWOT

    Price is now ridiculously low for this! Originally $5295. Purchased for a deal, hoping to shorten the jacket length. Tailor let me know pockets would be too low after that alteration. Suffice it to say I'm taking a loss. Have not listed on eBay yet. Please forgive amateurish photos. This...

    Brogue Boot--Must it have........

    I am interested in a pair of pebble grain brogue boots. The pair with Danite rubber soles are out of the question for other reasons. I've found a solid pair that come with leather soles instead, but I need opinions. In keeping with good taste and usability, are rubber soles more "right" for...

    TM Lewin Isn't Cutting It Anymore..... Help

    Determined to build my wardrobe this year, I'm interested in purchasing maybe 15+ shirts. I have a few TM Lewins that I was happy with, but feel I've outgrown (sartorially, not physically). The fabric options are extremely limited and I'm not fond of the collars anymore; however, I've been on...

    Waistcoat Fabric Question

    I purchased a navy single-breasted peak-lapel suit for my wedding in December. It took a while to find the suit, but now that that's out of the way...... I want to turn my attention to getting the double-breasted waistcoat. The selection, from what I've seen during my research on here, is...

    Been Looking for Months, Please Point Me to the Peaks

    I've been looking for a solid navy peak lapel single breasted fully canvassed suit for my wedding in December. I've been searching all over for something in my price range for MONTHS and am starting to feel I won't find anything under $600. Solid gray notch lapels are everywhere! I've been...

    Since I'm the "Suit" Guy

    Since I'm the suit guy, I'm helping my friend source his wedding attire. He's getting married/reception in the afternoon and is on a definite budget. Talked him into the following so far: navy suit (Benjamin Sartorial), black captoes (Allen Edmonds), white poplin spread collar (TM Lewin) = $750...

    Hold Em Up--Suspender Button Advise Needed

    This is my first double-breasted suit. A heavier weight charcoal pin stripe I purchased off ebay. It was apparently made bespoke for someone, close to my size, by a New York tailor (Sanitate). It's been to my alterations tailor with the following things done: 1) shortened sleeves from the...

    BB OCBD, simple question though...

    Is it the Original Polo or the Supima Oxford that is getting all the great reviews. Going to go to the BB Father's Day sale tomorrow and I want to choose the right one.... Thanks in advance....

    Allen Edmonds instep question

    I've searched the forums and can't find anything on this: I don't particularly have a high instep (I actually think it's quite low). However, when I wear either of my two pairs of oxfords, the tongue seems to jab my instep causing discomfort after maybe 4 hours of wear. The shoes fit great...

    Armholes and their restrictions

    I just flipped through and stopped on "You'll Never Get Rich" with Fred Astaire. As he's regarded as a well-dressed man, I was definitely paying attention to his suit, and it got me wondering.... He was wearing a 6button DB (using bottom button only), and of course he was dancing. While...

    Question About Chukkas

    I've searched the forum for the answer to why and haven't found an answer. The question is: What is the advantage/preference of having an unlined chukka? I am definitely wanting to buy my first suede chukkas and I'd like to know before I make a decision. As of now I'm leaning in the Loake...

    Color Advice (Hat)

    I'm still a noob, but I'd much rather ask in this forum than FedoraLounge. Considering I actually follow some tips from the Carol Jackson book I purchased about a year ago. Considering I'm a "Winter" -- suits in gray and navy, pale shirts, and true colors. I don't know what color fedora to get...

    Lapel Hole--When to and what to....

    I see commentators on TV often wearing a pin in their lapel hole. I VERY rarely, almost never, see someone with a flower in his lapel hole. My question is sort of a basic Lapel Hole 101 all encompassing-type of question: Is there a certain occasion to wear something? Is there a certain occasion...

    Is this a no-no?

    If when wearing a collar shirt under a wool/cashmere vneck, are barrel-cuff shirts the only acceptable way to go? French cuffs seem a little out of place under a vneck. Does anyone routinely wear a vneck over double cuffs?

    Cuff Link Question

    To the guys that may have over 20 cuff links or so, how do you store them. I have about 5 pair and I just throw them in a box, but then I have to scrounge around and find the match. Any display boxes? Any clever tips? Thanks in advance...

    An Introduction to Color

    Been lurking and posting sparringly, and I love the forum. Informative, positive, and inspirational. Since introduced to the forum, I've learned so much, but I find myself second-guessing color choices often--especially for the basic suit colors. For example, I was just looking online at...

    What Makes a "Good" Tie Knot?

    From a guy that only has tied 4-in-hand and half-windsor, I've seen a few comments on the forum such as "that tie knot sucks" and "great tie knot." However, the two looked similar to me. What makes a tie knot a sweet one? Is it mostly personal preference or are there some obvious "damn that...
