Philly is a men's clothing wasteland. Take note forum affiliates: If you ever opened a branch in Philly, you would have virtually no competition.

and no buyers. look what happened to deep sleep. or ubiq back in the day.

Shhhh. Don't tell them that. Seriously though, are there no well-dressed men in Philly? Whenever I see one I just assume he must do all his shopping online.

Yeah, I did, in size 12. That work for you? I'm not sure how well they'll work with my orthotics.

nah I'm a size 10 in sperrys. They really were a good price too. I'm really pissed that i didn't pick them up.

Size 12? You look to be about 5'8" in your photos. That's an impressive shoe size.

Orthopedics tend not to work out with topsiders. The low shoewall pretty much puts your feet outside of the shoe.

and what, have they sink tons of cash into a business that will ultimately fail? I'd rather not do that to people I trust/admire.

But think of the great going-out-of-business sales.

Nah, I'm actually about 6' or 6'1". Maybe my photos are just from odd angles?

Oh, that sucks. I was hoping I could rip out the stock insole in order to create a little extra room...

You might be too tall for size s boo...

Man, I really like the gray over dyed short sleeve oxford that context and blackbird are selling. I think I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I spent a weeks pay on a shirt.

Dear All,

Please read the previous couple pages before asking the same question someone else did (and Moda answered) again.

Moda is practicall the ONLY store in Pittsburgh that carries anything as far as I know.

Just ordered a BoO black XL shirt from Moda. Very helpful and great deal on the shirt. Call them if you are looking for BoO. I suspect they will be gone completely by the end of the day.

The (somewhat surprised) Moda sales person mentioned that "we have been getting tons of calls all day because someone posted us on the internet." I thought that was pretty funny. It is like a Viking raiding party that swoops in without warning, picks a store dry of its BoO sales shirts, then moves onto the next boutique.

So . . . where does the BoO raiding party attack next?
