Quick question:

Do you guys think MTM suit is worthy?

i enjoy wearing tailored garments, they fit!

except the two of my favorites: A Timeless & L.H.S., any recommendations?

Took a shot as a separate thread, but no replies.

Hello hello! First question for you fine gents out there. Recently got 2 beautiful Ascot Chang ties (along with various others) as a hand-me-down from my dad (never worn). His office used to be suit-n-tie every day but no more, so doesn't need quite the same size closet he had. I like the mix of physical pattern in the design of these two, but the colors are complex enough I'd love to know what shirts you think these would go with.

In case the colors are too washed out to see.. Both have alternating fabric patterns (flat and houndstooth, almost)

The left one has broad grey/silver and yellow stripes along with thinner orange pinstripes.Yellow and grey is more straight forward than the other tie (which is really bugging me) but I've never really worn orange of any kind so just wondering.

The right one is white along with stripes of pink, white, and dark dark maroon/red stripes. This one really throws me because white is one color (for ties) I'm not familiar with. It'd be too washed out by a white shirt, right? Light blue (since it goes with each color individually)?

Thanks in advance for the advice!

Any suggestions for good shoes to wear out during the fall-- during the daytime and at bars? I was looking into a new pair of loafers but worried those would be better as a spring/summer shoes.

Thanks!

Suede shoes are great for fall. Wingtip boots, or wingtips come to mind for the fall.

Any ideas on some good slacks/dress pants for work in the $80 price range? Would love something with a nice slim cut. I really like this fit, but I can't swallow a $175 price tag at this point. http://www.bonobos.com/po-8837-feb-fashion-wool-pants-brown-houndstooth

Does anyone know how high the rise (or measurement) is on Charles Tyrwhitt moleskin trousers? I have contacted them twice but have had no concrete answer yet.

Would an OCBD with contrasting cuff lining (i.e., only shows when sleeves are rolled) be stupid? Thinking blue OCBD with blue gingham. I'm having trouble finding photos of something like this, which might been it's a bad idea.

Don't do it.

Is suede/nubuck really fit for winter use? I've always heard that they can't take water and moisture, but I see all these people ordering RM Williams boots and alikes in suede - beacuse of the approaching winter. Do these people all live in a dry but rather cold climate, or have I gotten it all wrong?

Oxxford Gibbons. Is this considered a full or slim cut?

I mean I wouldn't slosh around in the snow with it, but it is a cozy material for fall.winter for sure. Especially in darker colors.

Ok, thanks alot!

Looking to buy my first 100% wool trousers. Where should I look? Howard Yount is all out of sizes, with what seems like poor customer service in not answering questions in the Howard Yount thread or through email. Panta is too expensive for me.

Looking for something in the $100 something range.
