The Salvation Army. Or, if I'm confident I'd get/keep the job, I'd choose the Goodwill.

I don't know; I was being facetious. I was somewhat poking the popularity of the thrift-store chat (such places are where the SF 1337 hang out).

While we are talking shoes I thought id try giving you guys a 24 hour head start on our new loafers.

We are working with an Australian designer called Andy Tom who has created us an exclusive pair of driving shoes in camo-suede. These are made in Italy using the finest quality suede and completely handmade. I put them next to a pair of my Tod's and the quality is pretty much identical although ours also have arch support with camo detailing.

Price = $199 until Midnight Monday 15th October and shipping is free. First in best dressed and sizing is EU39 through to EU45. PM me to secure a pair.






the detailing is great. looks on par with my tods, i must admit.

thanks mate and thanks to all the pre-orders. Sorry for those that missed out on sizing (Ill note that most of you guys are size 44 lol). Those that have already paid will have them sent in the morning.

They are now live on our site. I will share the plain colours etc later in the week.

Cheers
Rob

Ok guys, in really desperate, is there ANY online site that offers shipping to Australia for the RL Denim and Supply military chinos?


I saw at the RL warehouse store at Homebush there was a huge amount of RL Denim and Supply product. There was also common sized Polo suits (38, 40, 42) and quite a few Purple Label pants. All 70% off

If you guys could go back in time, with all your years of experience, to when you got your first serious job, where would you buy your first suit?

Knowing that you aren't super rich (you haven't even started your first job), but you have years of SF experience and knowledge on what looks good and what doesn't what would you do?


Probably Herringbone depending on your body type.

In all honesty, just buy something you think looks good for less than $500 and wear it for a while. Or thrift something, which may well look better. Don't bother about what this forum says until you form your own sense of style which takes a while. After you've worked for six months or so, take a step up and buy something nicer using what you've learnt. Maybe you won't give a **** anymore after you see the way everyone else dresses, maybe you still will in which case you'll have a much better idea of what you want.

I need some suggestions on a warmer weather hooded coat that also looks decent when worn over a suit or sportscoat. The duffle coats that served me well over the colder months are just too heavy.

Right now, I'm looking at just getting a hood for my Barbour Beaufort and using that. At this point, that seems to be the most cost-effective solution.

Thoughts?

In other satorial news, I'm picking up my altered Benjamin and P Johnson suits today!

If cost-effective wasn't what you were going for I'd look at something like this Mackintosh @ Epaulet

Sweet mate. Couldn't wear them in Canberra, but still sweet.


Considering the current state of play in Canberra I think they would be perfect for a stroll around the capitol hill bunker.:D
