Thanks for the suggestion James. Given my pattern of wearing through the toes, I should probably have toe taps installed on shoes before I begin wearing them?

Can anyone recommend any shirts (other than T.M. Lewin) that have a very wide spread collar and are under $100? I'm most interested in collar (not quality, etc.). Like these: one and two.

Thank you.

where can i get some dress pants with side tabs?

ddb007 · Aug 5, 2010

I'm looking at some Loake shoes and am wondering about fit. I'd like to get it right so I don't have to send them back to England if they're the wrong size. I wear an 11D in Magnanni, and am a 10.5 in a few other brands like Kenneth Cole New York. Does Loake run a bit big or small? I'm thinking a 10F UK. Any insight into how Loake fits would be much appreciated.

Some custom suit makers can do it. I use Beckett & Robb out of Salt Lake City. They do orders for people out of state. Side tabs are standard on their trousers.

I'd prefer something a little more traditional, maybe with a baroque cap. I'd get a pair in brown and black, don't wanna spend more than $300 for the 2 pairs. Any ideas?
Bump, anybody?

I want a short rainboot. Would you recommend this (AE Malvern), or something else? http://www.allenedmonds.com/aeonline...ategory=120552 I plan to wear them with the single-breasted Burberry raincoat BTW.

I haven't tried this service (since I have toe plates put in when I order the shoes) so I have no personal experience with them. But they are highly recommended by SFers.

Price is very reasonable as well.

Anyone have suggestions for toe plates in DC?
