    I just took a chance on an Oxxford Suit

    Oxxford do make really great suits. The quality is so good, and they have that old world hand made look, not unlike suits from the golden era. You could have reweaver fix the damage in the center seam of the coat or the tailor can take the back seam in its a little large in the body...

    Hungarian Vass Shoes

    Tom, I managed to try all these shoes on before purchasing with the exception of The Sanders shoes. In the case of the sanders shoes, they are a little narrow or actually have quite a shallow instep and this causes the throat to not close as narrowly as a like. My plan now is to try the...

    Ron Bennett menswear

    I live in Brisbane and from time-to-time visit the Ron Bennett clothing stores. I found an unlined school stripe Gian Franco Ferre tie once. For $30.00 I think it was a good buy. Their sportscoats are quite nice, particularly on sale. I enjoyed the article, I am quite partial to Ivy League...

    from the sartorialist...

    I find most italian suit manufacturers make often higher armholes than their American counterparts. A few items items in my wardrobe, Corneliani, and Zegna seem to high armholes. I think high armholes, as well as allowing greater mobility when wearing a jacket, flatter the wearer's body and...

    I have purchased the holy of holies....

    Re-weaving where I live is $45.00 per hole (small one at that). If there is only one or too holes I think its worth the money, but anymore, it just doesnt make sense. Unless you want to restore it over a period of five years, but then you best make sure you wear it afterward.

    two jackets/blazers won...

    The first jacket is defnitely 70s judging from the lapel width and back vent. if you want you can sew the vent shut and get the lapels cut down in the width. As the lapel doesnt have a buttonhole in the lapel you can cut it down.

    First Vintage Suit

    What a great looking suit. The waist supression is beautiful. The pants far too short, and sleeves probably also an inch too short. I think you'll have to sell this one.

    English-style blazer

    I agree. I believe in functional grammar before trad grammar. As long as the concepts are understood, thats all that matters. Neyus
