So this is how you and DerekS got together! :)


Lawlz, but not quite.

Feeling the lower legs are somewhat voluminous, anyone care to share their opinion?

Lil bit. A less sleek shoe would help that out I think.

As Stitchy said - a little bit, but not necessarily to the point where sartorial surgery would be necessary, IMHO.


Been a while. Unusual-for-Coxy forebearance: solid shirt, tie, pents etc. Only the jacket is FU (well, maybe the square too).

Maybe one day I will achieve restrained, soporific Nirvana. But apparently today is not that day.


Soporific Nirvana is not in your personality - don't change your style just to curry favor with the local mindset.

Jacket was a DB that Frank at Ercoles cut into a SB...not bad to my untrained eye....nitpickers have at it...


Goodness, I didnt know that was possible, but on reflection, why not? Looks like a good job. If I may pry, was it very expensive?

First day of the 3-day conference.

Sorry for the crappy pic - I'll try to make a better one tomorrow

If anyone can pull off a six-button sleeve, it's gotta be Chocsosa because of his height. Still, while I appreciate the proportionality, why six buttons?

my arm length is 39.5..most RTW suit sleeves coming in at 37-37.5 inches in my size.. so when I lengthen the sleeves (which I always have to do), the buttons end up being too high up..this one had faux button holes already there so I could not move the buttons.. so I had two extra ones put in so it would even out..all my RTW suits that came with unfinished sleevs have 3-4 button cuffs in comparison..

Makes perfect sense. Splendid fit, sir, as always.
