    Barbour Border made where?

    Here is the proper home of Barbour: http://tinyurl.com/bmbhfer I used to work just along the road. I would occasionally visit the factory shop, as good bargains could sometimes be found - slight seconds, for example.

    Return of the 3 button Sportcoat happening alredy?

     Is there a reason that this suit does not fit the model? Is there a reason for all three buttons to be fastened? Is it a deliberate policy of the designers? I can not believe that any clothes designer could possibly think that this looks good. Or is it just me?

    Travelling to the UK - warm coat suggestions?

     I spent today watching a cricket match in County Durham, which is next door to Northumberland, and I can confirm that two coats, gloves, a hat, and long johns failed to keep the cold at bay.

    Need help with navy blazer for professional setting

    The jackets in the photographs that you have linked to look, to me, like orphan jackets from a suit. They do not look like a conventional blazer. Sadly, the distinction between blazer and odd jacket is now being lost. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blazer Odd jackets and blazers are both fine...

    Good quality perforated leather driving gloves

     No, I haven't used that particular site, but you can order from the manufacturer; their website wasn't working when I originally replied. I have used the manufacturer's site, and they are fine. http://www.dents.co.uk

    french cuffs: too showy for certain occasions?

     There does seem to be a UK/US split on this issue. In the UK, I very much doubt if anyone would give you a second glance if you were wearing double cuffs. Pocket squares and buttonholes might attract some unwanted attention, however.

    SB/DB 3-piece- looking for some inspiration on details

     Whilst I don't have any answers to your specific questions, I would like to raise one issue. If you are going to wear a three piece, of any configuration, please ensure that there is a good degree of overlap between your trousers and waistcoat. There should not be any hint of waistband or...
