    The "Organic" Trend - do you believe the hype?

    Most claims of orgainc foods in America are scams, especially those sold in chains. Since the term is relative, the degree to which something is all natural is also relative. The funny part is, this is mostly an American-centric issue. Stroll through the Pescaria in Venice where fish has...

    Dr Martens

    I just gave up a pair of blood red wingtips to a friend of mine. I had had them since the mid 90s, wore them all the time, and there was only the slightest hint of wear on the soles. They were good shoes.

    I realize they're brass, but have you seen 'em when they're new??? Man, Oh Man, they are shiny! Blue Blazer shiny.

    That may be the high fashion crowd where you're from, but not here in Boston.

    The Get of All Gets, Barbour International...

    It has the exact same shoulder/ sleeve as this one, and is in fact, this one: http://www.outdoorandcountry.co.uk/newproduct.aspx?ProductStyleID=110044&CategoryID=1662 I normally hate logos of any sort on my clothing, but this one doesn't bother me. I guess if it was good enough for Steve...

    The Get of All Gets, Barbour International...

    Belstaff has runway shows now, which is very surprising. They are made just outside of Venice though, which is nice. We have got to support that Venetian economy! ;) Although I would wear a Belstaff, though I lament the loss of the slant pocket as well; they have lost a bit of cache' to me...

    What color are the snaps on yours? Are they the shiny gold ones? Edward, Barbour seems much cheaper in the UK. They are such great items and do not have that high fashion cache', which I like. They are sensible, tough garment for active people.

    Thanks, My Friend! I'm not sure what the low end temp would be. I was toasty warm in the mid forties with a light sweater underneath. With a base layer of Capilene and fleece over, perhaps 20s??? For anything Biblically cold, the parka comes out! Thank you all, gentleman!

    The Get of All Gets, Barbour International...

    So, I have been longing for a Barbour International Jacket for years. After seeing so a few in Venice last week, I have really wanted one. I was just about to buy one from coatsandhats.com with the great exchange rate for $336, when I decided to hit the outlets on a whim hoping, probably...

    What do you use to shave?

    Two weeks ago, I was in Venice, and I picked up an Omega shave brush. What a perfect brush! Nice firm, but soft bristle and excellent craftsmanship. I'm still using Williams shave soap. I like witch hazel.

    Ideas Thread for where the Large FL Yearly GTG should be.

    Why sidetrack the discussion over a semantic argument? Bias or no, lots of people live in CA, so it's easy to have CA events. It's just a fact. If we want to have other events around the country, nothing is stopping us. In fact, we all do it all of the time. Get a bartender in attendance and...

    Restoring a Vintage Belstaff ?

    If you lived in the US, I would advise you to send it here: http://www.newenglandreproofers.com/ They would do the work perfectly. There must be someone in the UK that can do the same?
