Gents, I'm selling a Herringbone sports jacket (unaltered, size 42) I bought a few years back. It's a shade lighter than the navy they use in their core suiting range. It also has navy elbow patches. My body shape has changed quite a bit since then so it doesn't get a lot of wear nowadays.

Admins, apologies if I should've posted this in buying/selling, however I thought it probably made more sense to let the Australian members know.

PM me for photos if you're interested and we can discuss pricing etc.

Gerry. I hope you are not using those mirror toes to look up women's skirts?

Haha!! Seeing as we work in the same building Gerry, I should bring over some of my shoes and you could have something to do during lunchtimes.

too good Gerry, too good.

Thanks, Sliq! I think thebrownman did a better job with his Hallams a few pages back though. Always room to improve

fxh, my friend's father always told her never to trust a man in patent leather shoes for that exact reason. At this point, they're only good for examining the underside of my desk.

I could give you a fish or I could teach you to fish ...

They have a few OTCs, maker unknown. In boring colours, $40 each and not on sale...

Gerry your photos always seem to have a pinkish hue. Any idea what is going on there?

Yep, the issue is that I'm using a 10 year old digital camera that needs to be replaced but I can't justify a new one just yet.

I have read an article from a dry cleaner on the Forvm that stated to never hang higher-end suits in the shower to remove creasing and whatnot, as it nullifies the ironwork done to a garment during it's construction, and has the potential to burst seams.

That was Jeffrey D who also runs a very interesting blog, examines the inside construction of suits and explains technical details. I think he's a tailor who works for high end mtm and rtw operations.

So here is a question: If you were only allowed to wear Oxford Cloth shirts for the rest of time, how big of a problem would that be?
