Shah or anyone who knows, looking for a suggestion on a tripod for my s95.

One that can stand evenly on a tilt and you can properly adjust the legs accordingly.
And of course all the other requirements like waist height or taller etc.

: )

probably nobody else cares except if I catch gdl's attention, but I would like a pocket square. I feel this is too bright and high-contrast. and it's cotton/rayon. surely if I'm to have one (or two) they would be of more interesting fabrics and more universal color scheme.

​

edit: also would like to find a nice cravat

Maybe this? Looks quite nice and it's made of linen so your hands wouldn't have to touch cotton.

what about that pocket square -- it seems too loud. need more subtle. and please don't tell me to stuff my kufi into my chest pocket

It's kinda hard to suggest a pocket square without knowing what you'd wear it with. Just like it would be hard to recommend one tie. Our friends at Howard Yount have a number of nice patterned squares (gingham and such) if that's what you're looking for - I find those pretty versatile. If you're looking for one large print (a la Carre Hermes), the Drakes and Rubinacci can be nice in the right colorways. I have 3 or 4 of Drakes' mughal print square in brown, red, bottle green colors and love those. Maybe keep an eye on MC B&S to see if anything tickles your fancy ?

Yoox has more character than any other web shop, haha.

There's also Kent Wang. If you're ever in NYC you could try Paul Stuart, especially for the cravat/ascot part of the equation.

+1 for Kent Wang. Shah, I think a natural linen pocket square might suit you?

It's photos like this that make me want to throw all of my clothes in the garbage and go back to wearing Gap carpenter jeans and LL Bean OCBDs.

I swear I can see faces in the camo.

 

[gdl203]

Are the faces weeping ?

I realize that 98% of men probably may not find this look practical. Keep in mind, as always, one of the main purposes of this site is to inspire.

he looks like the remnants of an opening ceremony sample sale

I'm inspired by his irrepressible ebullience

looking for one of those Silent bags that's big and sack-like. Needed for a trip. I see one version on yoox but if anyone has any other suggestions of where to find, i'd appreciate it.
