Can anyone comment on the warmth on the F/W 09 BoO quilted shirt jacket?Originally Posted by dv3
Equivalent to a middle layer. Better than a sweater, worse than a coat.
For things like cotton and wool trousers and chinos, if my trust waist size is 33, should I be buying trousers that have a 33 inch waist measurement, or should I size up 1?Originally Posted by wagthesam
Depends on the brand. Shipley's trousers run larger than tagged in the waist, for example, but Apolis's utility trousers run slimmer than tagged.
Question: My little brother is old enough that he doesn't want to be dressed by our mother any more, and he wants some non sports trainers, something like Converse. The only catch is he has very broad feet so I am looking something similar but wider fitting, or can you get wide fitted converse? So wide fitting, similar style to converse, nothing expensive or rare, he is only a kid and they won't get treated well. Got to be available in the UK. Any help or suggestions much appreciated. If I don't get any help I will start a special flower thread, just warning you all.Originally Posted by youngscientist
Someone mentioned JPs--those are good. You can't go wrong with any number of classic canvas sneakers: Tretorn, Zuriick, PF Flyers, Spring Courts--these are all "similar to Converse."

I have a few dumb questions:
-Should you hang or fold "nicer" t-shirts (aka not undershirts/gym shirts)? If you should hang, what type of hangers are recommended? I know to avoid wire hangers, so would these work or are they too heavy?
-During one of my recent online shopping sprees, I d ordered a merino wool sweater without looking at washing instructions. Well, it says to either hand wash or dry clean. I'd prefer dry clean if possible (don't really have the time to hand wash), but I haven't used a dry cleaner before. How do I go about finding a "good" dry cleaner? A quick google search comes up with 3-4 places in my town, but I'm not sure which I should go to.
Thanks.

I fold my t shirts and sweaters, hang shirts and coats.

Does anyone know where to get a denim necktie? I saw one in once in a WAYWT pic.
