I don't know about fit but the quality of CT cloth falls far below TP. Have you considered TM Lewin?

From the perspective of the MC forum, it's hard to imagine those shoes having much utility even when they were brand new and now they are worn out.

I would toss it. It looks too messy to clean up. Unless it has sentimental value, just get a new loafer.

That's what I was concerned with. The PINK shirts feel fantastic.

I'm not familiar with TM Lewin. Are they RTW or MTM?

OK, really dumb question: shirts that are listed as say 17/43 I know refer to the neck size in inches and centimeters. But they don't list the sleeve length? I am used to BB 17/35 and wonder how to make sure the shirt sleeves are not too long or too short.

Does Brooks Brothers usually have a 50% off sale during christmas? I've been waiting to get my first suit, and I think a fitzgerald would be nice, but at the retail price of $1000 I don't really want to get it

Does any place sell hangers for small jackets besides the Hanger Project? I'm a size 36, so most hangers are ridiculously oversized for my jackets. However, the Hanger Project is way too expensive for my budget. I don't need hangers that are nicer than the jackets I'm hanging on them :p

Thanks for your help!

I'm 173 cm tall, or 5' 8.1" ft. I really want this coat, but I am unsure if it fit's. As my measurement around my chest is 32 inches, but the sizing guide says the coat chest is 38 inches. How come? Since the sleeves seems to fit me. Can I use this coat?
