    Spear point collar shirts

    It also took over when it came to WWII uniform shirts as a cheaper way of production. You can see a clear swap from uniform shirts with collar stands to shirts without that happened near the end of WWII.

    Shirt collar oddities - Boardwalk Empire Shirt Collars

    I think that's exactly what a good costumer at times should do. It's a way of putting a signature on a look. Look at the dimensional brim of the Indiana Jones fedora. Hand cut at Herbert Johnson with a wobbly brim.

    Deckard's on Cloud Nine with new Sefton A-2

    Egads all the pics are gone. I think I'm going to sell the jacket due to lack of wear and due to my wanting a 40 rather than a 42

    You can see in the show when he takes off or puts on a tie that it's got the cutouts.

    Shirt collar oddities - Boardwalk Empire Shirt Collars

    Here is a historical question. Has anyone before seen a collar like the ones made for Steve Buscemi as Nucky Thompson in Boardwalk Empire? In particular I want to point out the cut out on either side of the collar that is there for the knot to go through.

    Spear point collar shirts

    The Paul Fredrick shirts are way too short in the collar like the Van Heusen version. I do like the Paul Stewart and old Joseph and Lyman Spearpoint shirts. #1 Would it be fare to say that a California collar is a type of spearpoint collar that has no arc cut into it so it has a wider...

    So is the Hollywood collar one with a bit more spread to the points so it can be warn open and more casually?

    The casualization of the world

    "I'll wear them maybe twice a year for special occasions -- for a dinner or a graduation," read this He may not think of wearing a pair of captoes to a graduation, but at least he has a sense of occasion.

    The Powell from Matt Deckard Apparel

    Packable Any felt breaks down over time, just like any suit wears out. I chose a very good felt so it wouldn't break down very quickly. I like clothes that I can abuse. This is a hat you can roll up and abuse... But don't forget to properly take care of it as well. Cleaning and blocking are...

    Show us your SHOES !!!

    They are special order. Done on the #1 last and with a single oak sole. I asked them to cut the edge close with no wheeling because I dance and extra sole means less utility... more trip ability. It's better the way I did it.

    Lowering the Crown on Hats

    Madness! I'd say talk to one of our hatters on the forum like Graham Thompson at Optimo or Art Fawcett at Vintage Silhouettes. It would either need to be shrunk or lopped off and sewn back on in order to be shortened while open.

    What are you wearing today??

    Yeah... top hat is too formal.

    Why Shell Cordovan?

    I purchased my first pair of Horween Shell shoes a little over 2 years ago. When they showed up I was hopeful, yet noticed that they were dull in their burgundy color (#8). I’m not a burgundy shoe fan in general, yet this wasn’t a regular burgundy shoe that I bought, it’s one that has a...

    Pull this on.

    It's a sin. Okay, I give into the idea of fashion taking precedence at times, but when it comes to an ankle boot that is truly meant for utility of use, I get offended when shoe designers mess with what works and I conclude that the designer didn’t do research into why certain things exist...
