    "24 films in five years"--very impressive. Who works that much now? Just Samuel L. Jackson, I think.

    an interesting letter I received from Land's End

    It's disappointing when a situation can't be resolved to your satisfaction, but is it in everyone's best interest to try to punish a merchant for that disappointment by using their overly generous and fairly unique return policy against them? It's a bit like the insurance industry--if everyone...

    Building New Suit Wardrobe - Need advice please!

    Brooks Brothers has BrooksEase separates available, which could help if you're having trouble with sizes. Jacket and trousers together usually go for around $600, but I think they'll be having a 40% off sale in June which will bring the price down considerably. Hopefully others can confirm this.

    Help me spend my suit $$

    Good luck with your expedition. I've been thinking a lot about those Chan suits. Hmm, maybe even a trip to HK. And if you really need help spending your suit $$, my address is . . . Which reminds me of an old Louie Anderson joke: Down-on-his-luck guy: Hey buddy, can you help me out with a...

    Ed13 and Chuck, FYI, when I signed up for the mailing list the confirmation message ended up in my Bulk Mail (spam) folder, so those waiting for these messages should check their spam folders in addition to their in-boxes.

    I believe Montecristo is suggesting you're the Georgia O'Keefe of tie makers.

    Proper fit for a shoe?

    How about for dress shoes? I'm breaking in a pair I recently bought in my size, but that have about an inch of room at the top. I've got a dime-sized hole on the top of one foot (yes, I mean a hole in my foot ), and both feet are getting pinched on top just behind the cap. Just about broken-in...

    Brooks Brothers ties

    Hello, What do you guys think about Brooks Brothers ties? I just bought a bunch (under their 20% off sale for $250+ purchased, plus another 30% off for each second tie, for a cost of around $40 per tie), but notice that they are 4" wide. I like the ties, both for their design and because they...

    Brooks suits options - need advice

    So after spending probably way too much time thinking about this, I ended up with pleats and double-vented. This is BB, but the 1818 is supposed to be "slightly shaped through the chest" so hopefully that's semi-congruous. I dunno.

    (Another) What can I wear with these shoes?

    "I happen to have my merlot pair of Ashtons on at this very moment." Do they still make those? Maybe they're just not listed on the website.

    Brooks suits options - need advice

    Horace, Thanks for your response. I'm not sure about the pleats, but will try to find out. This is some sort of special order with a 120s wool (I think the 1818 is usually 110s). Edit: Just called the rep there, who thinks they're reverse pleats. He said we might be able to do forward, but it...

    Brooks suits options - need advice

    Hello, I'm ordering some Brooks suits in the 1818 line, and need some help deciding which options to go with, namely 1) center vs. side vents and 2) pocket style. I think I'm most interested in opinions on the vent question. I am going with two-button coats, and pleated pants. Actually, I'm sort...
