Hi,
So, I have in the past few years gotten more interested in classic dress wear, etc. I am getting married in August and am currently in India, and have had a suit 130s wool made here, which I think will come out very nice. I am, however, lost when it comes to ties/pocket squares, belts, and to a certain extent, shoes.
I have been looking at shoes like Crockett & Jones which people on here seem to think highly of, and since I am in London when I return from India until June, I thought I could go to the factory store in Northampton. My question is, how much of a savings can I expect purchasing a pair of "seconds"at a place like the C&J factory store? For people that have purchased "seconds" from there, what price point am I looking at?
So, then, ties and belts. What are some good brands without insane price tags? I know very little about these 2 and would like some input, my suit for the wedding is chocolate brown pinstripe, but any general brand info is great too, where to get deals, etc.
Thanks!
Ben
