    The quality of a suit

    Many companies talk about quality these days though don't define what they mean. Whether it be a certain lining or a outer fabric or a construction detail, it is mentioned though they say nothing of what they mean by quality and because o the misinformation touted by salesman about higher...

    Bad hats.

    I've mentioned many times before of my bad hat experiences with hats... you can search the forum for those stories. What are yours? Sagging shrinking wearing holes in the felt. My favorite hats are the ones that can take the elements and a regular beating. That means they don't sag in the...

    From the Wall Street Journal

    Menswear: what's inside your suit? Monday, November 13, 2006 By Ray A. Smith, The Wall Street Journal The men's floor at Barneys New York has racks of suits in a wide range of prices, colors and cuts. But many have one thing in common: The now-ubiquitous labels that promote the quality...

    Custom Stingy brim pics

    I don't have one myself and I just can't pull off the look. I've tried though it doesn't look good at all with my face. I always reach for the wider brims and taller crowns (It's the Indiana Jones fan in me). Who hwere has had a custom stingy brim?

    Beautiful but one flaw

    We need to get out there and educate some of these vintage dealers who punch price tags through the crown or brim of felt hats. I keep seeing it over and over again... beautiful hat, though when you turn it around someone had tagged the darn thing like you put a tracking tag on a gator.

    Eating pets

    So I was talking to a friend the other day (I'll let him mention his name if he likes) and he told me how he possily thwarted a cat eating. Here's my question. I'm not against eating Horses... wouldn't eat a cat or a dog, though I'm not against banning people from doing such things. Some...

    What has quality and style today

    I cary this daily and it looks cool and holds up to the stress of a dancer on the run. Cannon SD400 They look awsome with a suit and tie and hat and cary off that modern Gatsby look. Maui Jim Titanium sunglasses I have a big chunky one, though when I saw Jack pull one out of...

    Brioni for Bond again

    I believe Brosnan was the first Bond to sport an Italian Brioni suit, though why not let the brits dress their top agent? In Casino Royale you see Bond given a jacket by Vesper. The jacket is tailored and comes in a Brioni bag. In Die another day you see bond unwrapping a Brioni shirt...

    You don't have to buy vintage to look good

    Saw Richard Torregrossa At the Queen Mary Event Friday night and he looked smashing in his suit. It wasn't vintage though it fit him well and suited his demeaner. The suit was from Banana Republic. I've said many times before I'm not into vintage as much as I am into style and things that...

    People are just too afraid to have fun!

    I've been talking to Senator Jack and noticing I'm am not crazy. People are too afraid to have fun. You hit the hip-hop dancefloor and people are phoning in their steps until they see someone go out there and really get into the music. I think the vintage scenes like the swing dancers and...

    If you like 'em they'll make more

    I've been cuttin' through the first issue of Classic Style magazine and rereading the article written by Zemke and... well... It's to be read. The information on the industry and hat making and styles that are popular nowadays... It's my favorite article. Tells you roughly the size of the...
