    Sam's Tailor in Shanghai?

    If the Sam's in Shanghai is linked to Sam's in HK, then it is a lower level of quality and the items do not last like the WW Chan items. I would suggest you go to WW Chans if you can afford them -- they produce great products. I just placed another order with Chan when they were in London a few...

    Shotgun recommendations/secondhand issues.

    I shoot a lot of clay with a Beretta O/U and am really pleased with it. Buying a second hand gun is a cost effective way to go. One thing to remember is that while Berettas cost more than the cheap brands of shotguns, they hold their value better so it will be worth more when you want to sell it.

    What's your most expensive pair?

    I have several pairs of EG that were around 420 gbp on sale. I have looked at more expensive shoes and liked them, but struggled to feel comfortable paying the 600 - 900 GBP price

    What color horn buttons for navy jacket?

    I made a very similar jacket earlier this year and went for dark horn buttons (darker and less transparent than the buttons you pictured). I suggest you go with the darker buttons.

    Bookster trousers

    just received two pairs of trousers they made for me this week based on their MTM pattern (which I really like). really impressed with the fit, finish etc. I agree with the comments from other members that their natural style is fairly "tight fitting" (due to the thickness of the...

    Bookster - Customer Service issue

    I have only had positive experiences with Brookster. they are a family run business and may have been off on holiday for part of August. Ask for Michele and she should be able to sort out the situation for you.

    MOP blazer buttons

    I used smoke MOP buttons on a navy sport coat I had made last year and really liked them because they are unique but subtle. The white will stand out quite a bit more.

    great experience with Sam Hober

    I first learned of Sam Hober's ties and pocket squares on sf and decided to give them a try. Just received my first order and the workmanship is amazing. The service was also really impressive. Placed my second order today. I would highly recommend them. cheers a happy customer

    Experiences with GMAT Prep Course?

    My two cents on this is that you can get most of the benefit you would get from a course by buying a prep book and working through the book. probably a lot cheaper. This is what I did and it worked fine

    Sam's tailor in hong kong for custom suits

    I have had a suit, sport coat and a few shirts made at Sams. It is ok, but no where near Chan or the better bespoke options you can find in the US and Europe. To be fair, the price is much less as well. I would not go back and order more, but I have got some good use out of the items I had...

    Who would you choose any why ?, Thomas Mahon, W. Westmancott or Des Merrion

    Tom is in the middle of making me a suit now. I have not seen the finished product yet, but have been impressed with the interaction so far. He has a very good reputation. William sent an email to a friend of mine saying that his business had gone into administration (bankrupt) and he would not...
