The Ultimate Toronto Thread

[suitforcourt]

Hey guys, small PSA. Stopped by Harry's Outlet, and although there weren't a tonne of great deals, there was a pair of Chuch's Sahara's in Navy Suede (gummy sole) for $169 in 7UK.

Note: They have three pairs at the store. BUT, two of the pairs have colour mismatches (one shoe is navy, the other one gray). I found one pair at the back wall that was coloured perfectly. If you can grab it, it's a good deal.

Those are sweet prices. Not my size, and suede is too hard to take care of. Hopefully someone grabs them.

I started a Toronto housing market thread for those considering a housing change or the economics of housing in the city more generally:
http://www.styleforum.net/threads/toronto-housing-market-thread.541561/

Homeowners, come post your advice and worries about the bubble bursting.

Renters, come post about getting priced out.

Property developers and real estate agents...have some scotch and celebrate in your vicuna pyjamas, I guess?

I will be in Toronto and will try to join on Thursday

any sales at Leatherfoot coming up? My friend is getting married and I'm helping him get some footwear for the big day.

Took a Black Label suit to Xavier for a jacket shortening and a tempering/heming of the pants. Excited for the results, hopefully it all turns out well.

I was going to post this. I went to the previous one in Winter 2016. Picked up a beautiful Matchless leather jacket as well as a Drake's tie and Ordean trunks.

Thanks for the heads up. Any ideas on pricing? Btw, I know everyone knows about and loves Drakes but I really like Altea ties as well.

 

[clarksdb]

IIRC Drake's tie $70, OB $100. Bring cash .

 

[burgerkong]

Ties went up to $75 this year FWIW.

If anyone wants to proxy a Drakes for me PM me.

Looking for a Navy, Mid, or Light blue neat print, or burgundy option.

I'll see what they have.

Is that $75 + tax, or 75 all in?

 

[clarksdb]

I think plus tax but you can pay cash...

Anyone that goes today or tomorrow please let us know on the pieces and selection.

I probably won't get to go until Saturday morning.
