^ imo, whichever jacket you like the most, i wear my brown jacket with black shoes, fwiw!

Thanks for the advice.

@tonio028 Also wouldn’t worry too much about shoe color with the jacket. Black horse is really classic for a double rider I’d think. Can say the tan suede is really nice. 40 sounds likely. I have 52 in Eidos and 42 in James Grose.

Going through the closet the other day, forgot I have a black leather band collar jacket so decided to follow in your footsteps and go tan suede. Hoping the 40 works out.

Do you look like a young Marlon Brando? If so, go for black leather. If not, go for tan suede.

No, more like a middle aged Springsteen, so I opted for tan suede :smarmy:

tan suede is dope, go for it my man

I went for it, tan suede. Besides @FrankCowperwood , @willy cheesesteak , and @conceptual 4est fits way back in the thread, this other one I came across from Loftman sealed the deal (combined with the fact that I remembered I have a vintage black leather in the closet already):

Escaped the sale (for now anyway) with minimal damage... picked up 2 pocket squares (Drake's & Christian Kimber).

Don't sleep on the CK pocket squares, already own the 'Melbourne' otherwise I would have picked that one up too
+1. I would vote for a restock of the Duomo and Torquay (linen) ones. Duomo is the only one I don't have, and I want a second Torquay to frame and hang.

The Eidos Grey/Blue suit is fantastic. Really, really happy with this one. I'll try to snap a picture tomorrow.

If you are looking for a great shade for a flannel suit, step on up. It is more conservative in person in my opinion.

Greg was correct, with a black tie and a white shirt, will look ace.

Made my order. Buttero, Bigi, Fujito, GRP, Naissance. I love me some NMWA.

Buttero: Black Canalone. It is exactly as shown and described on the site and yet it is somehow better in person. I took my normal Buttero size (one down from Vass, same as CP) and they fit well, though possibly slightly roomier.

Bigi: Rust Panama silk tie. There is more depth of color than expected. It has a bit of a color shift when viewed from an angle. This gives it a bit of an iridescent look. Surprising, but not bad.

Fujito: Border stripe sweater. I like it a lot. It has quickly found a home under my Niche shirt jackets, particularly the heavier weight army green one.

Black GRP and ivory Naissance hats: Chicago is cold and my hat army needed more strength. I already had a blue GRP and gray Naissance hat, so I knew what I was getting. These are great winter hats.
