    On eBay I see a lot of trousers that have a rise of 12''. This is obviously a change up from modern pants I've worn with a rise of 9'', but I'm curious as to what measurement will be required to have results such as these. Perhaps 12'' is enough?

    The chase for a suit; should I even bother?

    Hello all. I found this forum upon my quest for vintage 1930-50's clothing, as this era of menswear really appeals to me. Fedoras, expressive shoes, swing ties, you name it.
