    Proper Cloth - Official Affiliate Thread

    Thanks for the feedback novaeagle and AriG! Good to know I'm on the right track, will look at the sleeves and cuffs for my next order. A few comments: - I've been using the "full" armhole as opposed to the "tailored". I don't like it to be too tight in that area so thought that would be the...

     Thanks for the feedback - had thought a closer look might be better but appears I was wrong :) Here are some (hopefully) better shots!

    Proper Cloth - Official Affiliate Thread

    Was hoping to get some feedback on my Proper Cloth shirt from some of the fine folks on this thread. Feels like I'm pretty close to where I want it to be, but it doesn't quite look clean around the underarm / where the arm connects to the torso, and wondering if there's a way to improve on that...

    Good tailor in Vancouver?

    Thanks for the replies guys, I totally agree it was kind of a silly line of thought. I tend to be a very reserved person so even though I as fairly sure the shoulders were off, I felt I needed that extra bit of validation or confirmation to have he confidence to have that chat with the sales...

    Good tailor in Vancouver?

    Hey guys, had a recent MTM jacket made, and although I am not the most knowledgable person on proper fit, the shoulders look a little big to me. Although I've posted in the Tailor's Thread here with some pics and asked whether I am correct, I'd love to actually talk to someone face to face and...

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    Greetings tailors! Recently received a MTM Samuelsohn jacket in a Harris Tweed fabric, and I'm not sure I like the results, at least in terms of shoulders. I feel like they look too big, although I am not an expert in such matters and really would like a second, knowledgeable opinion. Apologies...

    Ask A Question, Get An Answer... - Post All Quick Questions Here (Classic menswear)

    Don't know if this is a quick question or not but here goes... Recently received an order of a new tweed jacket, in the Samuelsohn Ashton cut. My initial impressions are the shoulders are too big (pics probably going to be posted in the tailor help thread later). I have previous Samuelsohn...

    Official Filson Thread - Clothing/Bags Etc

    Looking to pick up an original briefcase but really being torn back and forth on the color. I had originally wanted the green tweed version but have decided to go with a normal one instead, flipping between green and brown. My usual wardrobe is casual, the most formal is be looking to match...

    Ask a Question, Get an Answer - ask all quick questions here

    Having a buddy of mine from Japan bring me over some stuff while he visits home next week, and I've been eyeing this 45rpm shirt. Trouble is I can't seem to decide on the color. Was originally leaning towards brown and think it matches my complexion pretty well, but the grey was a fav or a...

    ***The official LVC thread***

    I've got some pre-washed LVC 47s from what I think is 2008, would the fit on these be similar to what the same size in raw would fit like? I'm a little unsure because I had tried on another pair of 47 pre-wash 2 sizes larger than the one I bought and they still wouldn't button up.

    Japanese Denim

    Studio d'Artisan, Pure blue Japan, and momotaro have their shops in Harajuku. Skull jeans harajuku closed but they might still have a store somowhere. Skull Jeans should still have a shop in Meguro, that's the only Tokyo one on their site now.

    The Uniqlo Thread

    ugggh what happened to their huge selections or am I on the wrong country site? before the summer hit they had like 30 pairs of pants...now it's like 10, if that. I noticed today it defaults to "New Arrivals", when I selected the option for "Everything" the selection was better. How "slim"...

    Clarks Desert Boots

    Just wanted to confirm, are these boots unisex? I saw a place in Canada selling them and they have a branch near me, however the website lists sizes up from 8 in the mens section, while the women's section lists from size 6 up. Clarks website seems to list Of course I'm a size 6... but not...

    Some quick questions on denim tops: - Seen a lot of good denim shirts from the more well-known Japanese brands, what are some recommendations for stuff that's easier to find in North America? And is there anything in raw denim available or should I just jump on the J-brands for that (some of...

    Fixing tearing of buttonholes in jeans

    I don't wear them tight at all, I size up not down... :/ The d'artisans are actually quite baggy, and I weigh like 130 so this is pretty odd...

    Fixing tearing of buttonholes in jeans

    Figured this wasn't a "quick" one so thought I'd start a new thread. Noticed the buttonholes on my Eternal 811s are starting to tear and fray a bit, which was a problem for my D'Artisans (medium) and my 45RPMs as well. Only the fly for the 811s but the waist one is an issue on the other two as...

    ***The Official Cardigan Thread***

    For the cardigan-unitiated as myself, a few questions: I'm looking for a non-chunky cardigan similar to what is seen on J-Crew as of now (like this for example), but being a little short (5'3") a lot of what I've seen is a bit big on me. Been searching on Rakuten and uniqlo to start, any...

    (Old) Ask a Question, Get an Answer - please ask all quick questions here

    Hey guys, I am thinking of pulling the trigger on some Eternal 811 one-wash jeans tomorrow and had a quick question. The guy at the shop said there wouldn't be much shrinkage in the waist (maybe a bit in the length), and also that they wouldn't stretch. The size 31 I tried was a bit tight but...

    Wallet chains?

    Well, the GF finally sent me my Xmas present last week, which was a nice new long wallet. Being a little paranoid about it being easily stolen, I'd like to pick up a chain, but not really sure where to start searching for one. I was hoping it'd come with one, but I'm sure a matching one was...

    Japanese wallets (that aren't Red Moon)?

    Hey guys, Been a while since I've been on this forum, good to be back cause I need an injection of advice. Anyhow, for my first thread back, I need to add some things to my XMas list for my GF, who happens to be in Japan right now. I'm pretty picky about clothes as sizing is an issue for me...
