    Hello all I've been lurking for a while here. I'm currently fascinated by the camp shirts and depression-era work shirts J Crew has been selling. I also have a current fascination with knit ties. My question is: Would it be terribly wrong to wear a tie with a shirt that was designed for...

    Cleaning suede shoes

    I have a pair of suede/leather saddle shoes and salad dressing spilled all over the front end of one shoe (the suede part). The formerly tan color has turned into a dark, oily brown/black. Is there any way to remove this stain? I took it to a local shoe repair shop, and the guy said that the...

    Fair Isle sweaters

    Nice shirt I like the shirt, too. It looks period with the long, drapy collar. Where'd you get it? Kostya

    Proper shirt collars

    I love these collars! Can you, perchance, get some side view pics (laid flat) of the one on the left and the right as well as the middle one? I like the measuring tape in the picture, too--it gives the tailor an idea of the size. Thanks, Kostya.

    Proper shirt collars

    Nice website and concept, but it seems a little sparse on information and options. No contact e-mail. I really need to find out how long the points on the collar should be. 3"? 3 1/2"? Kostya

    Proper shirt collars

    Thanks, guys, for responding. Senator Jack, Which collar style did you choose for your shirts from mytailor.com? What I'd really like to see are some measurements of the collars off some period shirts if anyone's got some. This would help tremendously. Kostya

    Proper shirt collars
