Pick out the shoes and colors you'd be open to and ring up the Galleria and Port stores before they are picked over. Where in Brookfield are you from? East or Central? MUHS myself. I...

    Allen edmonds tent sale

    Classic- Although the shoes most discounted are factory seconds, from what I understand, the reason for the seconds designation is cosmetic, even so, it is very difficult to distinguish them from first quality. I have had very good luck with the shoes I purchased at the tent sales and at the...

    Sunglasses

    I have had good luck with Persols. Â The prospect of even higher lense quality has piqued my interest in Maui Jim. I have purchased several pair of Persols from www.go-optic.com, the prices and service are good. Teo

    Sock question

    mistahlee- Yes, I occasionally use sock garters, especially when wearing my tuxedo, those formal silk socks do not stay up well on their own. Have you seen any sock garters that are made with leather? Teo

    Peccary gloves

    I recently purchased a pair of peccary suede gloves in Florence; being very happy with them, I searched for an ecommerce site that sells them. Â The Italian retailer I found has the exact gloves @ $107, I haven't accounted for refund of VAT or shipping charge. This is certainly less than Paul...

    Building an interview/business wardrobe

    E- Concerning the shoes for an interview, remember conservative is the key word, lace ups would make more sense for an interview.  You are not making a fashion statement in an interview, better to err on the side understated good taste; although I can appreciate your interest in monk straps...

    E- For shoes, go to the Allen Edmonds tent sale on 4th of July weekend. I score deals every year, I've heard that some CEO's fly in to town for the sale. Spend all day going to each store as they have tents at each location in the parking lot with unique models and sizes. They will be at the...
