I need some slim fit Chino's and can't seem to find anything good. I have a pair of straight leg chino's from Banana Republic that are kind of slim, but I can't seem to find any good slim fit chinos. Anyone have suggestions? (I've read the entire thread on the topic, and came away with nothing)


Rugby, Unis, J. Crew, Sid Mashburn...just depends on how much you want to spend.

Baron Wells also has slim fit (no kidding: the top block is the slimmest I've seen). I have two pairs as well as tried the above.

Some cheap chinos? Wear a 28x32 around there.
$30-40.

Looking for a good casual belt that can be dressed up. Something along the lines of a D-Ring or braided leather.

Thanks.

Can anyone suggest a white oxford (can't be see through when worn without an under shirt) that is slim fitting and can be worn tucked in and tucked out without looking long and droopy length wise. Budget is in the $150-180 range


Try WvG or Epaulet. WvG might be too short to tuck if you're tall though. Epaulet has 14day returns for SF members so no risk.

I've been searching around for winter outerwear that's warm as well as a good deal water-resistant/windproof and was wondering if people knew of labels that were made in the US, Canada, or Europe?

I know of Mackage, Krane, and Canada Goose. Also looking at "technical stuff" so I know Bogner (too expensive) and Westcomb. Thanks.

Barbour and if you want crazy tech outerwear try Norona.

Thanks Woog.

Can someone recommend a spread collar, navy gingham shirt size 14 collar?
I can't find a good brand that carries 14" collars.

Cheers, gents.

Any recs for a short-ish sleek mac coat that would hit upper-mid thigh on a short dude (5'6")? :eek: preferably mid-range price, material doesn't matter too much

I'm in serious need of brown leather casual shoes. Brogues, captoes, whatever. I'll be wearing them with button downs and APC Petit Standards.

What brands should I look at for a price of around $200 USD? I looked at some Cole Haans but couldn't find anything I liked. The Nike integration they are doing seems tacky.

Hi, I'm doing the same shopping as you are. Right now, I'm really liking the Aldo Mr. B Adamis in cognac. Check it out, but I've been trying to see how others feel about it on here. My budget is around your price range too.
