Any golfers in the thread?

Does Topgolf count?

Sorry I had Formosa make the Summer tweed jacket. Some fit issues that need adjusting hence me taking off work for the day.

I wanted to know if you’ve tried on the carrera?

Not yet. Thought I'd visit NYC after the holidays. I missed that Formosa was coming this month.

EDIT: If you don't mind my asking, what is Formosa's price for a CMT sport coat?

I was raised in Augusta, where I was legally obligated to play. I don't get out as often as I'd like now, though.

I pm’ed you, have you ever lived in Stuttgart?

I pm’ed you, have you ever lived in Stuttgart?

Thanks and yes. Lived there for three years and have visited several times since then. Neat town. Stuttgart was pretty much flattened in WWII, unlike Munich, so it's not quite as scenic bit still a very worthwhile visit.

I laughed watching the first Avengers movie with the Stuttgart scenes that were filmed in Cleveland.

My company asked if I wanted it. Not sure what’s there but it’ll give me easy access to the rest of Europe.

They have a major airport that has direct to US flights, on the major DB lines, and on several Autobahn routes. 2 hours to Strasbourg, the Black Forest and Garmisch-Partenkirchen (skiing!!!). I was a history major so Germany was like Disneyland for me. Easy train ride to Paris, Prague, etc.

Stuttgart also has a major University and excellent cultural stuff (museums, opera, soccer, concerts). Anyway, 25 years in the Army and Stuttgart was my fav assignment.

Has anyone ever been to Sky Valet shoes at Citycenter? https://www.skyvaletshoes.com/

It's preferable to going up to New York to a Crockett and Jones store.

I bought C&J Chelsea boots and two sets of Harvard loafers, one in brown cordovan and the other in suede. He also carries John Lobb, Alden, RM Williams, and some other brands. Well worth a visit. He can also order anything that's not in the store at the moment.

One of the green suiters I worked with in the past totally dismissed it so I never gave it any consideration until now. I've been doing some research on the city and can honestly say it looks beautiful.

Obviously a troglodytic knuckle-dragger, that green suiter.

I've always wanted to try topgold but can't get behind the price when I can just buy buckets of beers at a driving range.
