So, does Tyrwhitt run small?


It depends on the model - they use different manufacturers (the better one's are generally Loake or occasionally Barker). If it's the Loake Kempton clone they're pretty generous.

This pair here look very similar. They look quite similar to the Kempton.

Could i get to elaborate on "generous" that can kind of go both ways

Indeed, this may be the problem. So, what type of shoe would you wear with a casual (cotton, unstructured) suit to dress it down a bit?

Brogue oxfords or any kind or blucher would work well.

Opening Ceremony fits the bill, please note on this site that the VAT is included and if you are in the US the price is -20% and there is a 15% off on shoes sale going on right now

Bought a green batiste BoO shirt off eBay recently. Fits awesome, but comes with black PLASTIC buttons. Is this legit? I thought BoO shirts all had mother-of-pearl buttons...

Some of their shirts had black buttons, but I'm pretty sure they weren't plastic. Horn maybe?

Anyone have experience with this?
