Yesterday I witness what was suppose to be a beautiful thing: a wedding between a young gentleman and a young lady. The bride was gorgeous and the couple was as happy as I have seen anyone be.

BUT for the whole time a particular thought kept crossing my mind: "****! The groom's suit doesn't fit!"

Thanks style forum.

N00by noobs are nooby.

Some of the long-time members would rather focus on the bride's back-door or her breastessess.

didn't you hear?, it is the new rage. Allows you to change the canvas so a suit can keep its shape for virtualy a life time if you have access to a good cobbler

Yea, this exact same thing happened to me at a wedding last month. The suit was pulling way too much in the back and it was like damn why did the tailor let my boy step out like that.

Agree. Nothing like a good 360 degree welt on a hand padded collar.

One day I hope to wear fully canvased Tretorns, but I'm not that baller yet.
