I think it's great - particularly as MTM inspiration.

Also, this is a beast:

I got their catalog in the mail. I'm tailoring and outerwear sated but there is some really nice stuff here.

It’s always interesting what menswear things get noticed out in the wider world… but several of my non-menswear-pilled friends sent this to me today, so I guess this is gaining traction!

I think lots of Styleforum folks follow Vox on Twitter. His feed is funny as well.

Random post, I tried some of the Olderbest stuff, sometimes too authentic Chinese repo brand (ie a bit cosplay) don’t think their length measurements is correct in general though (others are fine but length is a bit longer than measured which is a plus)

Given change on de minimis is going to kick in soon, maybe I should get a few more in the mean time

This is a bit cosplay but hard to find alternative similar to this these day actually (something RL used to do but don’t really see it these days)

Half Norfolk Brown Tweed Jacket

This jacket originates from the classic sports coat worn by the British aristocrats during riding and hunting in the second half of the 19th century "Half Norfolk Jacket". This Half Norfolk Jacket is made of 480g brown tweed (100% wool), and with hand-woven cowhide buttons. The lining and sleeve...

I saw this. I it was okay, but not really earth shattering. It would be great to hear from folks who think otherwise. What am I missing?

Yeah, but if I'm not mistaken that's Kamoshita san, so it doesn't count.

Speaking of DB, popped into SuitSupply and saw this interesting piece:

Made with a E. Thomas wool/cashmere mix.

I've typically stayed away from their tailoring, but this is a pretty nice piece (if the trousers had higher-rise double forward pleats, would be an insta kop).

Also, the SA said their MTM turnaround is 2-3 weeks, which seems ludicrously fast.

I may be heading to a work conference late October in Miami. Dreading this but work requires. It’ll be for 5 days. Any good blogs or the like for packing light and for the heat and humidity? I’ve never been, and I want to pack light. I imagine I’ll still be dressed fine given office attire has become so casual. Likely to be morning sessions and evening wine and dine type settings.
