    Dark Denim, White Contrast Stitching: Cool or No?

    I found a pair of dark denim jeans that fit me great. The thing is, they've got this white contrast stitching that really stands out. I'm not sure if I like it or not. It certainly stands out, I know that. Anyone have a similar pair or thoughts on this matter? PS: I have no idea why, but the...

    Double Breasted Trench Coat: In Fashion?

    I was poking around today at a vintage store and found a black double breasted trench coat with belt. It was $15 so I decided to splurge and bought it. It fits me very well in terms of sleeve length and shoulders. Are these things still in style? I guess I could possibly exchange it, although...

    The Fate of Returned Clothing??

    What happens to returned merchandise? I am concerned about this because I heard a rumor (true or not I don't know) that some retailers simply destroy all returned merchandise. I heard this happens at some clothing stores, some bike stores, even electronics retailers. This seems like an enormous...

    American Apparel: Zero Tolerance/No Return Policy

    Heads up: American Apparel has a NO RETURN policy on any and all purchases effective immediately. I think there MAY be some leeway if the items are clearly defective, although this is at the store's/manager's discretion. Be absolutely certain you want something, you will not get a refund under...

    Shirt/Tie/Top Button Open: OK For Work?

    I've seen this look a few times in the fashion mags. A button down shirt with just the top button open and a tie. Can I rock that at work? Or will it look too try hard? Or is that just a "going out" look? PS: I saw this look on the Oct issue of GQ magazine: Josh Hartnett it says on the cover.

    Altering Neck Size on Shirts

    Is it possible to get up to two additional inches in neck size on a button down shirt through an alteration? I like my shirts fitted and so I often buy them in size small. However, the neck size is typically 14 or 14.5" in small shirts. I'd like to keep the fit of a small shirt across the chest...

    Silly Question

    Is it possible to lengthen jeans? As in, taking jeans with a 29" inseam and getting them to a 30" or 31"? I know it's possible to get an inch or so extra from my suit pants to go from a 30 to 31, so is this possible with the length of jeans? Anyone had this done? What were your results? Adamm

    Nike No More

    I didn't know Nike manufactured Chucks and now I'm feeling slightly miffed. As you already know, Nike pays its workers 50 cents an hour, and refuses to recognize efforts to improve working conditions in its factories. Nike is also the manufacturer of the beloved Chuck Taylors. However, you can...

    Quality At The Low End?

    Are there any low end merchandisers that offer quality? I remember 8 or 9 years ago, The Gap was a very reliable source of basics at a reasonable cost. Their prices have skyrocketed, and the quality is abysmal. Additionally, the cuts seem designed only for men who weigh 200+, regardless of...

    Cranberry Vodka + Khaki Blazer = Sh1t!

    Some bozo runs by me last night at a club and knocks half my drink onto my khaki blazer. There are red spots on the right side of my blazer now (not that dark mind you). Boo hoo. Will a simple cold wash take care of it? Or do I need to take more elaborate measures? Is it safe to Shout it out...

    Straight Leg: One Pair; Low Rise: One Pair

    1. I'm looking for a nice pair of dark wash straight leg jeans. Not the skinny rocker style jeans. I'm willing to spend up to one hundred dollars, prefer to spend less. What brands do you recommend for the best quality and fit in that price range? 2. Also, I'm considering getting a pair of low...

    I found some nice slim fit hoodies with interesting graphics, interesting distress work that I bought for an insanely low price. I'm thinking about layering this over a plain long sleeve tee or graphics tee. The question is, what to wear OVER the hoodie? Two layers is not going to be enough...
