    sport coats: how often do you wear the same one

    In the summer when I tend to wear blazers a lot, I'll sometimes wear the same one for a few consecutive days, especially when traveling. I rotate suits but am not as concerned about rotating blazers or sportcoats. I tend to have the same policy. I will rarely wear the same suit without rotation...

    Best way to carry few notes and credit cards?

    For fellow australians (And I suppose anyone willing to pay for shipping?) www.dosh.com.au, they come in 3card and 6 card designs Great for notes and cards, not so much for coins. and unfortunately we get way too many coins here. (at least I do) Still nice though. (Heres a tip, don't get...

    anyone prefer pre-owned suits?

    Like this one with hole, would $49 USD a competible price? I am not much of a used suit buyer myself. I would say it would greatly improve your chances (at least with the people you want to sell to) if you had the suits fixed. I am sure there are plenty of tailors in Hong Kong who would fix...

    Do you think this is a stylish watch? Danish Design

    +1. It's essentially a riff on, or a rip-off of, the "Swiss rail watch", or Mondaine watch: http://www.mondaine.com/mondaine-wat...splay_family/4 Yeah, I have to agree. It isn't exactly original. I suppose though if you had a clean cut modernist thing it would work for you though.

    John Lobb: 'We've turned our faces against machines'

    Extraordinary stuff. I am rather in the mood for buying some, rather costly handmade shoes now though. One day perhaps, when finances would permit such a purchase.

    Tuxedo (NYC) - 30 days, up to $3,000, and a plea for help.

    I guess a few posters disagree with my suggestions against satin lapels, but I am firm in my convictions/ these acts of agression will not stand, man! Grosgrain ribbed silk lapels are anything BUT dull, and are the height of elegance. Do not be swayed by the shiny satin if you have the choice...

    PERSONALITY traits to be correlated with the type of shoes a man wears?

    I don't have pictures of all my shoes in archive... Now that would be commitment. You never know when archive pictures of all your shoes might come in handy Out of curiousity what are thoughts on these shoes which have rediculously accented toes? ie; come to an insane point or curve up or...

    Kenneth Cole Slim Collection Suit opinions

    I am not familiar with afore mentioned brand at all but in my experience most of the cheeper off the shelf stuff is of comparable quality. At least around here. if you need a cheep suit fast though and that one fits I guess that is the right one. You can always sell sell it on ebay or...

    Whats with celebrities at red carpet events and long pants?

    Most of those guys don't look like they know what they are doing. Case in point :P Also his species is just trying to greet the human race. No need to be judgemental :P well... a little need.

    Need your opinion on a boot i just got. Wrinkles in leather. what caused this?

    A similar thing happened to me recently although it was wrinkled over the whole shoe. It didn't actually look too bad so I have been wearing them for a few weeks and I have kinda got used to them. I don't think it is anything other than visual but if you wanted a smooth leather shoe I would...

    Glen plaid BlazerSuit - Your thoughts

    I am envisiging something that is very "Landed Gentry" if that makes any sense. A blazer out of it might be okay although a whole suit might be a little much. Just my opinion though.

    Pics of some good 3-button roll 3 button suits/coats

    I probably don't know what I am talking about style wise either. But I was always under the impression that while the 3 button 3 piece has been around for a while recently the fashion world has trended towards 2 buttons for some time.

    My shirts are killing me; alterations possible?

    Well I will accept that, I probably should stop skim reading, or at least learn to skim read better. As far as I know, armholes are a pretty complex alteration. I have heard of people going from smaller arm holes to larger ones by picking the entire shirt up by the shoulders thus making the...

    Whats with celebrities at red carpet events and long pants?

    Maybe they did but then they decided to wear their pants lower. I mean I saw one guy there who wasn't wearing a belt with his gray suit, I mean even if you don't need one it is a pretty important accessory imo. Most of those guys don't look like they know what they are doing.

    lounge suit? Pls enlighten

    I was always under the impression that a lounge suit is slightly more casual than that. For example a white shirt, open collar (no tie) with a matching jacket and trousers probably a lighter colour for semi-formal occasions. Although. I would say if it is a wedding darker suit with a tie...
