I think it's fine. His tie collection is the one of the best I've seen. I'm not a fan of the way he tucks in his square, doesn't look very neat, crisp or flattering to the rest, but maybe that's not really the point here. I don't see how his first pics usually make sense as there is hardly any detail visible, except for the overall silhouette.

Cheers, F! It is a pleasure to wear. The trousers are rather ordinary but my hips are a ridiculously hard fit.

Bit of a rubbish photo. This is:
- 1B SB RAF blue birdseye suit by Steed
- Alumo lilac micro-check shirt by Sean O'Flynn
- Blue on white check tie by Drakes

Out of shot is a pair of black Edward Green punch-cap oxfords

PS got a little out of control in this picture. I tamed it afterwards.

Well done. Interesting pose though.

I hate my B-width (and two differing lengths) for all the obvious reasons when it comes to finding shoes, but I have to say, a number of you with normal width feet look like you're wearing Russet Potatoes.

Really? Because of the floating medallion?

Manton,

Figured you wouldn't like the shoes. I like floating medallions on monks.

I agree with you on bluchers and balmorals though.
