    Most Versatile Shoe Color - Burgundy vs. Brown?

    I've never seen navy sheep but I have no problem with navy wool.

    an interesting letter I received from Land's End

    From their web site... Guaranteed. Period. The world is full of guarantees, no two alike. As a rule, the more words they contain, the more their protection is limited. The Lands' End guarantee has always been an unconditional one. It reads: "If you are not completely satisfied with any item you...

    Just Ordered This!

    A contrarian view... Sean Connery as James Bond in Thunderball, worn with matching trousers.

    TM LEWIN shirts for £12

    I'm sure it's a problem with their web site. Just about everything that is marked "Was X, Now X" is 12 pounds. That includes their cufflinks which were 10 pounds and are now marked down to 12. Let's see how much of this they honor.

    Help With Colors

    I think red is the last color that you'd want to wear. I had a girlfriend with coloring similar to yours and she avoided wearing red at all costs. Just as wearing green brings attention to my greenish eyes, wearing red brings attention to your red freckles My first thoughts for you would be...

    Letterman and Leno -Sleeves too darn long!

    I can visualize a photo in the next Flusser book showing an Italian dandy with a tightly fitting cuff on his bicep and a watch placed just so over that cuff.

    Suitings by season

    Is there any relation between weight and terms like "Super 100's", "Super 120's", etc.?

    Jantzen Update #2343249324

    I placed an order yesterday for 11 shirts, all in the same style but different fabrics. I tried to keep it simple. My fingers are crossed. I would have thought that the just-expired moritorium on foreign orders, whether fully-enforced or not, would have allowed them to catch up. I'd be happy to...

    Wallet for my girlfriend

    That doesn't surprise me. While many Argentine leather goods are dreck, as could probably be said of those from other leather-producing nations, the products at the top end are as good as anything in the world. I've spent a fair amount of time there, having returned most recently two weeks ago...

    name of that japanese place in Time Warner

    There's a long thread on egullet.org about that place.

    Bag for Work

    I own several briefcases. Rugged hardware, textured or matte leather, extra straps, being thick, and being soft-sided are all things that will make a briefcase more casual. On the other hand, a shiny thin attache case in fine leather can make you look like a Swiss banker as long as you're...

    wear from bag strap?

    I'm all for ditching the laptop bag too. My friends and I call them nerd packs. They're barely passable with casualwear and awful with dressy clothes. If you like carrying a messenger bag when you're dressed casually, you can put the laptop in there. If you're worried about protection, you can...

    White Belt

    It was a streetwear look a year or two ago. It might have played out. I don't know. I saw more women do it than men. I think the idea is to be sure you don't wear them with white shoes.

    What's dobby?

    The first time I've ever seen that term was last night when I was browsing the Jantzen web site and found this page with swatches of dobby fabric. It looks to be any fabric with a textured weave. Someone else might have a better definition.

    Pants rise?

    I think plain-front trousers can be worn with a slightly lower rise than pleated-front trousers, all things being equal. LA Guy: Thanks for your recommendations.

    Getting rid of warts?

    I had a wart on my hand several years ago. I picked up some drops at the drugstore. If I remember correctly, you'd put a drop on the wart regularly and the wart would dry out. The wart came back several months later and I did the same thing. It hasn't come back since and I have no scar.

    Pants rise?

    If someone wanted less of a rise in something in quality comparable to that pair of Incotex, what would the options be? I'm rarely impressed by the quality of most designer labels.

    Pants rise?

    This photos have a greenish cast to them. Notice how the carpet also has a green tint? I took one of the photos into Photoshop and corrected for the green cast. I bet that carpet is grey not green-grey. The trousers turned into a classic khaki/tan color. Since I don't know for sure that the...

    Acne

    I didn't have acne on the lower part of my neck so the benzoyl peroxide never came in contact with my shirts. You do need to be careful because it will bleach.
