    Grenson Aviator Boot - Where to Find?

    Check out this shop: http://stores.shop.ebay.com/ELITE-FORUM. It is a UK seller - in fact, I recommend looking through UK eBay.

    Ted Baker shirt

    I've got one - poplin french cuff. Construction is decent, the fabric is ok - pretty stiff but for the same reason, not see through at all, which matters to me. Big pluses are the fantastic shape of the collar and the fit. Nice and slim, almost perfect for me. Shoulder seam is spot on for neck...

    General Bike Thread (Desiderata, Questions, Pics)

    Yeah, that looks like a great recumbent... for me to poop on. /Triumph rimshot I'll be out riding in a charity event today, all done up in matching kit, bike, helmet - loads of spandex - capped off with freshly shorn legs. Can't wait.

    Man Capris - what is your opinion of them?

    But... but... I've seen male models wear them on the runway. Ergo.

    Forgive me all, for I have sinned.

    I sometimes leave the house without pausing to admire myself in the mirror. It makes me feel naked and devil-may-care.

    Suggestions for canvas and leather duffle bag

    Orvis Battenkill ftw. Durable as all hell, looks great too. Take it to the Ritz, take it camping. And... $198. http://www.orvis.com/store/productch...subcat_id=6449

    RLBL Suit - Cuff or Not?

    That comment is the exact opposite of the truth. Cuffing the trousers of a lounge suit emerged at the turn of the last century as a semi-casual alternative to the formality of plain bottoms. That's why the trousers of a formal suit, whether morning wear, dinner jacket suit, or white tie, are...

    I need ONE White Dress Shirt.

    OP clearly indicated the shirt would be worn with suits as well as more casually with blazers and vests. Even you French cuff lemmings have to agree that the versatility required calls for a barrel cuff. FC is ideal with a suit, but not useable at all with sweaters or vests. Barrel cuffs are...

    Brooks Brothers Men's Shirts Sale - 2 for $99

    The worst thing is that the sleeves seem to shrink, and you have to get them tailored to fit. The last BB non-iron shirt I bought required 4" of material taken off both sides. Did you buy traditional or slim fit? I buy slims, but must have the sides taken as well (7"-8" suit drop). Strangely...

    I bought a Valentino from eHab, and the cut and fabric are terrific, especially for the price. Quality - who knows? I only tried it on for 5 mins. Unfortunately, the trousers are too slim for me (cyclist thigh syndrome) so it must be returned. But highly recommended for the dough.

    Good Outlet Malls

    Native North Carolinian here - three Polo outlets/factory stores I am aware of, at Tanger Shoppes in Blowing Rock NC and Gaffney SC, and Concord Mills in Concord NC. None are great. Plenty of "polos", Lauren by RL suits, classic fit dress and sport shirts (read=huge), and the...

    Ralph Lauren Presales Code Contest

    My wife got into a bad car accident, and was left in a coma for weeks. She was unresponsive and showed no brain activity. I dutifully visited her daily in the hospital, but after a couple months began to lose hope. Then one day I received a frantic call from a nurse asking me to hightail it back...

    Joseph Abboud shoes?

    They seem to have a higher grade line of shoes now, supposedly handmade in Italy. Look like Blake or Blake/Rapid construction. Any info on the maker or quality of these? Here is an example: http://www.6pm.com/n/p/p/7343879/c/60.html http://www.amazon.com/Joseph-Abboud-.../dp/B000QGTPRW

    I have a jean...(The Ultimate Jean Thread For Beginners) - ask questions here.

    Is that you don't like the "break-in process" because the jeans are stiff? If that's the case you could go with either jean you mentioned and simply wash them in woolite and/or cold water to remove as much starch as you can and just wear. Otherwise... I think you have your terminology confused...

    I have a jean...(The Ultimate Jean Thread For Beginners) - ask questions here.

    Real SF n00b here (transplant from AAAC) - Can you guys recommend a dark non-raw selvage pair of denim? I like the straight, semi-slim fit of APC Rescues, Nudie Average Joes, etc. but prefer not to undergo the break-in process. What can I say, I am impatient . Also, would prefer that they stay...

    Thoughts on Hickey (hickeystyle.com)

    ^Agree on the fairly modern cut, and I just bought mine a week ago so it is from this season. I'm a pretty standard 41R, I got the 42R, and the fit is terrific: somewhat slim, with good sleeve length, jacket length, shoulders, etc. For my money, its a perfectly useable business suit with modern...
