The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions
I just received this from suit supply. Needs a little pressing near the bottom. It's a Lazio fit in 38R. It's the best fitting off the rack suit I've ever tried and as you can tell, it needs work.I have a lot of anterior pelvic tilt, and I'm assuming weird shoulder slope. This is my best...- Yaniel

***The official Alden thread *** Share enthusiasm, reviews, sizing, advice, and photos.
I have walnut polish as well as chili edge dressing so I'll compare them both. Do you have any experience with Allen Edmonds Natural edge dressing? I have a pair of natty cxl PTBs that I need to do the edges on too and really don't want to add color any color to them, but just protect them.- Yaniel

Quick question for you guys. What edge dressing is recommended for the snuff suede ptb's? I don't have the model number right now, but they're the stock model that everyone is selling now. I Bought this particular pair from Epaulet last month. Thanks for the help!- Yaniel

Maybe I went to heavy. I brushed it the day after I sprayed them because the nap was completely flat. Rubbing my finger on the shoe, the color would not change at all. After a bit of brushing, the texture came back, but not as rich as when they were unsprayed.- Yaniel

The spray waterproofer "to waterproof & protect all types of leather" and on the back it lists suede http://www.allenedmonds.com/aeonline/producti_SF644_1_40000000001_-1 Is this the proper one?- Yaniel

I just bought some snuff suede PTB's from Epualet and sprayed them with AE waterproofer. They seem to have lost a lot of that rich texture they had before I sprayed them. I've brushed them for a while after they dried, but it's just not the same. Any advice?- Yaniel

Just received my first pair of Alden's. 9501 Bootmaker Edition from Shoe Mart in Natural CXL. The fit is perfect. I'm in complete love! Does anyone have some info on how to care for Natural CXL that won't affect the color much? Thanks- Yaniel

I've decided I want my first pair of Alden's, and I want them to be natural CXL. I love all the CXL boots, but I'm looking for bluchers for this purchase. Besides the PTB and the LWB on ShoeMart, which other options do I have, if any?- Yaniel

AE Strand - Wide gap in lacing, need advice on sizing.
I was amazed and a bit saddened that I had yet to experience the SF snark.

E. Zegna Suit Fit and Alteration Advice. Is it workable?
I just realized this isn't a Zegna suit... it's a saks suit with Zegna fabric. Never trust sales people.- Yaniel

If I want the heel to be more snug, then I'd need to go down in width to an E from the EEE?- Yaniel

AE Strand - Wide gap in lacing, need advice on sizing.
I received the 9.5EEE today, the gap still isn't sealed, but I'm happy with them. The fit is much better than before, even though I thought they felt fine before. I guess I didn't know how they're supposed to feel. I could probably go down to a 9EEE because I still have a good amount of space...- Yaniel

AE Strand - Wide gap in lacing, need advice on sizing.
Thanks for the advice everyone. My big toe, which extends the furthest on my foot sits just under the lowest part of the medallion, so I think the 9.5 will work. I also found them on Amazon and as a prime member I can get them shipped to me quickly in a 9.5EEE, plus they're $55 less. If that...- Yaniel

AE Strand - Wide gap in lacing, need advice on sizing.
I treated myself to my first pair of nice shoes as a graduation gift to myself. I picked up some AE Strands in 10D from Nordstrom and thought they were the right size because they were comfortable. I got home and started looking at pics online and realized I had a huge gap in my lacing compared...- Yaniel

AE Strand - wide gap in laces. Need advice on sizing.
I picked up some AE Strands as a graduation gift to myself today from Nordstrom. They feel comfortable, and not knowing any better I bought them. After looking at pictures online, I realized mine have an enormous gap in the lacing. They are a 10D. I have a lot of free space in the front and...- Yaniel
