How to see 100 posts in a thread
Hello, I'm sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong place. I tried posting in the "New Forum Support" forum, but it seems that it's locked? I don't know. How do I change my settings so that I can see more than 10 posts at a time in a thread? I'm trying to enjoy the new forum software, but this...- Makoto Chan

Looking for good cotton fabric
Perhaps there is not such a big difference between "good" and "bad" cotton fabric for suiting as there is for wool, but can anyone suggest a place to ask for samples/order fabric for the tailor? I want to order a cotton suit or two from Peter Lee in Hong Kong next year. I could just ask for his...- Makoto Chan

A button inside the trouser leg, at the ankle, for cycling
Hey guys, When I hop onto a bicycle in my chinos, I have to watch that they don't flap over the chain and get an ugly grease mark. I'm aware that some people buy little velcro straps to wrap around their ankles to solve this problem. I don't like them. I was thinking that another solution...- Makoto Chan

Mid grey suit in Harrison's Fine Classics, 3rd bespoke commission, details....
I've had two suits (navy, in worsted and fresco) and a jacket (a navy blazer) made by Lee Baron in the last year or so, and the next one will be a wool coat for the colder half of the year.

How does this blazer fit? Video attached
Hi SF, I ordered this blazer from Brooks Brothers, and am not sure about the fit. You can see it on the BB website here. It's a Milano fit, 3 buttons, single vent, 36R. Please tell me what you think! Good or bad? Keep it or sell it? Should I make alterations? When I first tried it on, I thought...- Makoto Chan

Buying a blazer for the spring and summer
Hi SF, I have already proportioned most of my clothing budget through the first half of the year (I'm saving for trip to nearby HK for a bespoke suit or two). But, with warm weather approaching, I'm thinking about buying a light blazer. My two other jackets are somewhat heavy and quite nice, but...- Makoto Chan

" The vamps look like they are hanging on for dear life"
Hello SF, In this thread about some cheap shoes, BlueHorseShoe said "The vamps look like they are hanging on for dear life." Here are the pictures: What is that supposed to mean? The vamp is the front area of the shoe, right? So... basically I just don't get it. Like, the vamp is too flat? I'm...- Makoto Chan

The Little Shop Around the Corner, 1940 movie with style
This movie was recently recommended here. You've Got Mail (with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan) is based on the story, but in this movie all of the characters work in the same little shop in (of all places) Budapest. This move is seriously fantastic and there's a lot to say about it, but I thought the...- Makoto Chan

Jackets for beginners - first this, then what?
Uploaded with ImageShack.us Hey Styleforum, I own only one "nice" jacket - it's wool and navy and you can see the picture - and I love it and it goes with everything. But I need to own another. What would you recommend for a second jacket? I'm a teacher. My school doesn't require suits (though...- Makoto Chan
