    London Sales Winter 2012

    What was the outcome with the London sales in the end? I'm coming up later in the week and am looking for shoes. Any good deals down Jermyn Street or have I left it too late?

    All leather heel?

    Wouldn't an all leather heel wear down quicker than a rubber one? Plus being lethal in the rain of course.......

    Jermyn Street - Sat 10th Sept - The art of being British

    12 noon to 5pm next Saturday (10th September) will be the annual Jermyn Street "art of being British" event. I received an email yesterday about this so thought I would pass it on as I wasn't aware of it and hadn't read on the internet it was happening again this year.

    PSA: Sunspel up to 70% off

    Thanks for posting this........ my sunspel delivery arrived today and I am just seeing how much more I could have saved :cloud: Really nice quality and made in England which is good. I brought 2 t-shirts at half price so can't really complain.

    bespoke novice, experiences with Graham Browne or Choppin & Lodge?

    The GB suit that appeared on here the other day was the first questionable thing I've seen from them. I think it you look at the suits they have made for Guy Hills and the Simon Crompeton give a better impression of what they can make.

    bespoke novice, experiences with Graham Browne or Choppin & Lodge?

    Graham Browne have made a few jackets for me and I would say do it. I've read more positives than negatives about their work. I would recommend going for a fairly conservative jacket which won't date and don't try and direct the tailors. They are experts and it's best to let them get on with...

    WW Chan lining alterations?

    A suit lining with naked ladies on? Where can I get this from?!

    Cleverley bepoke shoes for a 3 year old...

    Of course, certainly a talking point! Probably an interesting exercise for the shoemaker to make a shoe that small and keep the detail.

    Fit Pic of New ModernTailor Shirt - Opinions Wanted

    I'd be happy with that. Have you laundered and pressed it yet as it looks like it could do with an iron.

    Cleverley bepoke shoes for a 3 year old...

    I read this post on the leather soul website with disbelief. A nice idea but surely by the time the shoe has been made the 3 year old would have grown out of them? http://www.leathersoulhawaii.com/201...ages/#comments

    Bespoke Shoe - Measuring Advice

    I've had a thought. Lodger shoes in London have a electronic foot scanner where they scan your feet and it gives out all the various measurements. If you live near London I am sure they would scan your feet for a small fee.

    Bespoke Shoe - Measuring Advice

    Interesting question. I think there is more to the art than just taking a few measurements. When I had my feet measured the shoemaker spent a good 20-30 minutes taking various measurements, noting where the joints were and noting other oddities on my strangely shaped feet. I'll admit that the...

    Timothy Everest or Thom Sweeney

    Am I right in thinking that the 2 guys who run Thom Sweeney used to work for Timothy Everest? There was a video interview on Tom Stubbs' blog with Thom Sweeney which sounded interesting which might be worth watching. £1K is quite a difference but Timothy Everest is well established and can...

    Marks and Spencer - fully canvassed £500 worth it? material?

    They have a selection of these at the Marble Arch M&S in London. They seem like nice suits. They do get heavily marked down during the sales so if you can hang on until the next sale you could grab a bargain.

    Saville Row Suit

    Not Ed Harris - what dashing tweed did Graham Browne make up for you? Just curious as there isn't much on the net about DT.

    WS Foster bespoke brown cap toe Oxford

    I note that Mr Eustace Tilley went for the square toe in the same model: http://www.styleforum.net/showthread.php?t=65183 J I was trying to decide between using Cleverley or Foster but when I saw Mr Tilley's shoes I knew I had to go with Fosters. I do like the square toe but my personal feeling...

    WS Foster bespoke brown cap toe Oxford

    I've recently placed an order with Foster & Sons for a pair of shoes called "the thomas". I decided on a rounded toe because it suits the style of the shoe more. Will probably go with a square-ish toe on future commissions though. A nice dilemma to have of couse.....

    Sanders Finsbury wholecut. Does anyone know anything about these shoes?

    I brought a pair of Sander Blackwalls the summer before last. They are holding up well with quite a lot of use. Quality wise they are probably similar to Loake. Not sure about the wholecut though as it's a more expensive shoe. Would prefer a darker brown myself. There is little information on...

    Patrick Grant Interview

    I get the feeling that perhaps Norton & Sons aren't making a great deal of money and that the rtw spin off could be lucrative for them. Plus Patrick Grant seems to fancy himself as a bit of a Tom Ford character...

    Trickers bespoke shoes

    Has anyone used the bespoke shoe service offered at the Jermyn Street shop? There doesn't seem to be much information on the net about this and I was curious if any members on here had used this service? From what I gather the first pair are about £1K and are made at the factory to your spec...
