    Different Suit Fabrics

    The biggest drawback to polyester as a suit material is its lack of breathability. This quality makes it feel far less comfortable than natural fibers that can absorb and release moisture. The plus side is...no wrinkles! If you want to buy a blended material it would be better if the...

    My neck is five inches long!

    Howdy! Being an insomniac and all I figured I better get in a little late night posting. The other day I posted on Stanleyvanburens thread and complimented him in a fashion that some of the other posters took exception to. I said "not to sound mean" in regard to Stan's build as compared...

    Can You Top It?

    Be sure to take a look over at the suits forum and check the stanleyvanburen thread. The second picture he posted is a 3 stripe element combo that looks great! Not quite the hypnotic effect conveyed by the first picture in this thread, though. I was surprised to see 3 stripe elements work so...

    4IH knot, straight collar.

    Wow, that second photo is a great combination! I like green a lot and its actually pretty darn hard to combine with a lot of other colors. Also, the all stripes motif really works! I didn't like the first shirt just because of the interaction of the stripes with the other elements, and I...

    I agree most statements are positive here, mine included! Perhaps you are looking too hard for some sort of implied insult out of my positive statement. Cheers! MS

    4IH knot, straight collar.

    To quote the Baron "The suggestion is that the implied body jealousy of our more corpulent members precludes them giving realistic critique. Hmmm, a bit of a stretch, that one." Actually, nothing of the sort was said or implied. What I was getting at is that since Stanley actually posts many...

    4IH knot, straight collar.

    Actually, I think you can't lose! You always dress great, and not to sound mean about some of the other loungers, but I'm sure a lot of them would kill to have the dimension of their chest exceed that of their waist. Opinions are one thing, but having a decent frame to display it on is...

    4IH knot, straight collar.

    Thats a great jacket! Personally I would like the tie better with one of the huge knots (Windsor?) that you usually sport. The tie is a nice match with the jacket but I would like a less busy shirt. It's still a very nice outfit though! MS

    That I do! The space age has a lot of its roots here in NM and I dug it a lot as a kid.

    Gordo! The dude in the above photo in the loud shirt is none other than Gordon Cooper. The astronauts all favored bold, bright prints. Gordo's ashes were just shot into space aboard a small commercial rocket from Las Cruces NM. Mick Doohan (Scotty from Star Trek) also took the ride. Their...

    You sayin these guys aren't classic? After all that bad rappin I thought I'd better get a photo posted up. Never tried it before but here goes. [/IMG]

    regards short sleeves with tie "The short sleeved dress shirt doesn't exist. The short sleeved shirt does. I think they look fine tucked into pants during the summer or in hot climes, but I will never willingly wear one with a tie." You would never have cut the mustard at NASA in the 60s buddy!
