    Help me decide please... CXL FQHH vs. tumbled CXL FQHH

    I'm in the process of getting my first Aero (via Carrie at TB). I have the fit jacket, I have the samples. My wife likes the tumbled CXL FQHH. I like the non-tumbled variant best... at least based on the samples. I'm assuming that break in would be easier with the tumbled, since it comes a...

    Taylor Stitch x Golden Bear Moto Jacket

    Hello gents. It's been a while. I hope you're all doing well. I've owned only one leather jacket in my life, and it was a poor excuse for one from a department store. I'm looking into purchasing a "real" leather jacket, and this Moto Jacket from Taylor Stitch has caught my eye. I'm really a...

    WTB - 1 Yard of 1.25" or 1.5" Dark Vintage Ribbon

    Hello all, I have a Failsworth fedora with a felt band that matches the body. I'd like to change it out for some contrasting grosgrain. So, I'm seeking about 1 yard (I believe that will be enough for one hat band?) of vintage grosgrain in a 1.25 or 1.5" width in either black, dark brown...

    Ian McKellen's hat from upcoming 'Mr. Holmes'

    I love this hat. Would this be considered a homburg with the curled, wide-ribbon-bound brim?

    New to Sport Coats

    Hello gents! I'm hoping you can provide some guidance for me. Lately I've come to realize that my wardrobe is lacking a key item - a sport coat. Until fairly recently I wouldn't have had need of one, as I used to dress like a typical college kid. This year I've been making an effort to dress...

    Dressing for HOT weather?

    Hello all, In the past several days my neck of the woods has been around 95 degrees and humid - highly uncomfortable weather if not for the modern miracle known as air conditioning. This got me thinking, how does one dress well, but also dress in such a way as to not succumb to the weather...

    WTB: Akubra Hampton

    Greetings! I have an Akubra Stylemaster, which is a favorite, but I'm not sure that I really look good in a wider brim. So, I'm looking for a Hampton, which has the narrower brim. My ideal find would be Thyme Green in color. Size 59 please! Let me know if you have one you'd be interested...

    Handgun owners - Your advice/opinions please

    Good day, I'm looking into purchasing a handgun for defense and perhaps concealed carry. The hardest part is going to be convincing my wife to go along with this idea. She has the all-too-common gut reaction that guns are horrible things which pose a greater liability than benefit. So, my...

    Boat Shoes

    Good day all, I'm looking into acquiring a pair of boat shoes for the coming summer. I want a good quality shoe that will last. I think I've narrowed it down to two possibilities, but would like to hear your input on them before I make a decision. Option 1: Allen Edmonds Eastport -...

    Overcoat on a budget?

    Greetings! I'm looking for an overcoat, and was hoping that I could appeal to you all for some suggestions. I'm on a budget, so I'd like to not spend more than $300 if possible. I'm looking for: Chesterfield style (single breasted) Gray or charcoal in color Three-quarter length...
