    Abraham William boot socks worked for me on a pair of shoes that were slightly too large all around.

    Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

    When I bought my first pair of EGs (Chelsea DOAK, 82 last) from Saks circa 2018 they came with shoe trees included in the box. They appear to fit the last of the shoe. Recently bought a second pair directly from EG and no shoe trees were included this time.

    RLPL Suit Worth It? Other Options at Similar Price Point?

    I have a fair amount of RLPL in my closet and consider them to be top tier as well. They also fit me almost perfect OTR. If you are looking to try some other options, I've also settled over the years on Kiton, Brioni, and Zegna Couture and have been pleased with all of them.

    ٭٭٭ No Man Walks Alone - Official Affiliate Thread ٭٭٭ (a.k.a. I shouldn't have slept on it)

    Thanks for checking. I realize I misspoke, they actually weren't on sale proper, it was just a 10% discount for the SF10 code I found on here.

    ٭٭٭ No Man Walks Alone - Official Affiliate Thread ٭٭٭ (a.k.a. I shouldn't have slept on it)

    Thanks for your reply. Yes, I bought items when they were on regular sale. Now all of the items are on 'final sale' but they weren't when I placed my order in early January. They only just arrived so that may have something to do with it, not sure. The website says within 30 days since purchase...

    www.shopthefinest.com - affiliate thread

    Don't know how I never noticed this thread before! Brief review: I placed two orders recently for some Kiton pants and shirts and the service was first rate. They even caught an inadvertent sizing error I made on a pair of pants in my first order, and contacted me right afterwards to confirm...

    ٭٭٭ No Man Walks Alone - Official Affiliate Thread ٭٭٭ (a.k.a. I shouldn't have slept on it)

    I'm trying to initiate a return for the first time using your Happy Returns option. When I select the item to return, no matter which reason I select in the pop up, it only gives me an option to "Exchange for something similar". There is no option to return for a refund. How do I initiate a return?

    Official Sales Alert thread - sales, coupon and discount codes

    I see the link in the app to the 30% off sale but when I click it shows nothing on sale. When I try the website no sale shows up at all. Do we need a code to access? I'm a subscriber but didn't get any e-mail invite.

    Help me choose an Oxford shoe

    I got my Chelsea on the 82 in DOAK. When I compared with the John Lobb City II, I preferred the look and the leather on the EG, it seemed superior to my eye and touch, but it could have been due just to the individual samples I saw since there is variety in the skins used.

    Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

    Do EGs ordered direct from them online still come with shoe trees? Wondering as I see an option to add a pair when I checkout.

    Sock Expert, I'm back

    Quick update. After wearing the socks again, they fully regained their former shape.

    Sock Expert, I'm back

    Thanks for the feedback. The shrinkage was actually just the right amount. I suspect the shape change is due to the cashmere blend as none of my other socks reacted that way after a hand wash but they do fit better now so no harm.

    Sock Expert, I'm back

    thanks I will try cold with the other pair

    Sock Expert, I'm back

    I used approximately room temperature water (neither warm nor cold). Would cold water be preferable in this case?

    Sock Expert, I'm back

    Thanks for the informative explanation. They appear about an inch longer than my foot so I probably need to go with the 10-11.5 size I suspect as the 12-14 size is a bit large.

    Sock Expert, I'm back

    I've put them on and they stretch to the same shape on the calf, they just look a bit scrunched up as in the pic when off. When I hand washed some of their 100% Merino Wool socks in the past they came out looking the same afterwards shape wise so I wonder if it has something to do with the 30%...

    Sock Expert, I'm back

    So I hand washed the pair that are 70% Merino wool and 30% cashmere using Eucalan's No Rinse Delicate Wash. They shrank a bit and fit better now but also seemed to lose some of their shape. Does this look like the expected outcome for hand washing socks? Left is unwashed, right is washed.

    Sock Expert, I'm back

    They are from William Abraham and come in ranges for shoe sizes 10-11.5 and 12-14. I'm a shoe size 12 so I went with the latter but wondering if I should size down instead. Does it make a difference if it's Fil D'Écosse Cotton? I noticed another vendor states that their Fil D'Écosse Cotton...
