Don't you live in DC, Oldog? I would think your shoes would get downright nasty come summer in that swamp, with no socks. I grew up there and I used to utterly destroy loafers over the summer sockless.

Why do you even bother posting anymore, Voxy? Your stuff is so perfect it looks like it was painted on you. It is always flawless....especially the fit. I guess you are like the daily litmus test...the gold standard for fit. "This is how your clothes are supposed to fit, now aspire to it peons."

My suit today is an homage to the hardy, industrious, and resourceful people of your mountain land.

Spray tan for the ankles; Botox for the sweat glands. A small price to pay for style.
