Dear All, I'm a longtime lurker. Since my weight keeps me from fitting into some very beautiful vintage suits, the only options are to buy suits from High-Quality Reproduction Stores. I've tried to establish contact with Matt Deckard, but I seemed to have peeved. My Top current choices are...

Dear All, I was born in 1996 in Hong Kong, just before the handover. Recently, another veteran of the namesake battle has died. The government and most of the population refuse to commemorate and much less remember liberation day or what's happened. Our military history, alongside anything pre...

Dear all, Despite being born in 1996, I have never met a real life World War 2 veteran except for my Communist grandmother of whom I don't have much affection for. The National WW2 Museum has travel tours but I don't know which one to pick. I'm kicking myself for not being on the 75th...

I will do it again. I just hope my past (garbled) messages have not made me look like a troll

I don't know how to contact him properly. I probably said something stupid. If anybody could introduce me, I'd love it.

Nobody can reproduce vintage summer cloth, or even recreate vintage all round cloth. However, I do want a suit with an action back and is cut to give me enough maneuverability without being boxy. I'm a fat guy, and I still have a lot of weight to lose, but I really want to know: are there any...

I don't mean to be a noob, but where do you find this awesome stuff in 44-46?

I guess i was wrong, summer wools do work. I guess I'm going to buy one, anybody no where to get a quality one.

Somebody mentioned Fresco wool, and linked something very good. TO me, Fresco seems all well and good. But, i dont have enough experience to judge. I would stick with seersucker or a very good quality linen.

I love the very artistic and realistic adviretizing. It makes me want to fork out some cash for an MTM suit by Palm Beach. Better yet, Oxxford.

Damn, that was a great find. I am very jealous BC i couldn't imagine finding that gold in my area. I hope you did buy it.

Hello its me again, (please dont hate me) I have recently came across the Houndstooth kid's Etsy Haberdashery and had seen a 60 dollar straw hat. And i was wondering, "in the summer, the suit rules are different, What are they?" A lot of people (Askmen, GQ, Esquire) misinform people about...

Anybody have anything else too add?

Does anybody here think Savile Row is a good option.

Hey, Could you link me to some other thread about how BB and JPress history, if not, do you mind explaining it? Secondly, where do you think i could get vintage clothing for a 5'8, size 42-44 long/ short? Is it always Ebay or Etsy?
