I would say that here, the most relevant would probably be A) Obsessive Compulsive Behavioral Disorder, with C) Operational Capabilities Benchmark Demonstration (also known as WAYWT) being a close second.

for anyone who has ordered online from the UK, and lives in the US, have you been charged a duty / customs charge / tax etc?

I am thinking about ordering something online from either Oki-ni or Lanudry Room and just want to make sure i am not going to be charged some random tax in addition to the price of what I am ordering since I will be having it shipped overseas.

Thanks for all of the Help!

Also is there a noticeable difference in quality between MMM 10 and Jil Sander?

I haven't tried sport coats on from either brand so I can't say for sure. That said, when it comes to the shirts I own, the Jil Sanders is significantly slimmer than the MMM in the same size. I actually go up to a 50 in Jil and Raf, but wear a 38/48 in MMM.

Here's Uniqlo's contact information.

I have heard of people getting charged when getting stuff from Oki-ni. Don't know if its a consistent thing or not though.

Are you by any chance a company computer guy?

Thanks that helps. The pictures of shirts echo what you said, but the blazers are the opposite. I ordered the MMM 10 blazer yesterday, so hopefully it works out, if not there is always a tailor.

Which one did you pick up?

Black Cherry · Sep 18, 2008

So I'm looking for a decent if disposable shirt, either button-down or dress, in the burnt sienna/orange color. The slimmer/fitted the better, other specifics aren't important. Preferably under 50 dollars. Trying to coordinate with girlfriend's dress for a fall wedding. Any suggestions?

No, just a lot of experience in talking with small children.

How soon? If it's not too soon a demand like this kinda screams Jantzen. Or ebay.

I have solid color dress shirts for $19 in rust color. Its probably too cheap for my SF customers who scoff at such products, but if your interested PM me

are grosgrain belts (like desert boots) an item that should normally be limited to summer use?
