Yeah that’s just a good suit to wear because it’s fun to dress well. I would buy that to wear for fun more than as a work outfit.
@lordsuperb always likes posts that end up costing me serious money! :bigstar:

Deer hunters have been slacking? I hit a deer straight on last night. The only good thing is that this deer didn't come thru our windshield. Scarry to see the crack though. Back to the shop.

My wife went to the ER but should be okay. We were going about 40 mph. The thing had antlers so it could have been worse. I hit it right on its side and it actually ran off without leaving any contact info. We have a description of him but he may be long gone.

I got a call from a deer this morning saying he needed a lawyer asap. Wonder if there's a connection...

Ask him for a fat retainer from his shank.

Your honor Mr. Deer was on anti-depression medication and he attempted suicide at my cost. He saw me from half a mile away and waited until the LAST moment before jumping in front of my car.

I've found the deer! (If you don't get this then you don't get this. But if you get this then you'll find it funny).

Okay, just ordered the Dugdale tobacco linen suit from NMWA. Have been looking for one for a few years now and this one checks all the blocks. I think, like @hpreston , I've bought more during the lock-down than I ever did before. Really liking the SF10 discount as well of course.

Great suit!

Is this your first Carrara piece? Pics please, after you receive it.

First ever Carrara. Had hoped to venture north to try them on in person but that idea is so 2021...

Heading to Geoffrey Lewis tomorrow to pick up my last #menswear purchases. Hoping they were able to let the calf out successfully on the Anglo-Italian linen pants. Taking that smashing purple Kiton cashmere s/c in as well. Need to get it worked on now ahead of the inevitable Fall Covid crash.

Ugh. Bartender...!

If you wait maybe a day or two, you can likely drop off the linen suit in one trip.... No Man shipping from NY is retty quick.
