Beautiful jacket. Congrats. It might be interesting if you could update us every few weeks and show us the way the jacket breaks in. We often see jackets when they're first purchased and not again until they're sold. The BL's a design that seems to demand seeing it after it's fairly well along...
While I was at it, I also went for the Shelton Saddle shoes in black and burgundy (nice tax return this tear). I just bought them on AE's Ebay page and am anxiously awaiting their arrival. Anyone have any experience with them?
Those are sublime. I just invested in a couple of pairs of AE's weaves and was wondering about the history of woven formal shoes. I read on StyleForum that they weren't traditional, but I could swear seeing them years and years ago.
Bolthead, thanks very much for posting those pics. As I hope you all can see, the ribbon's black (black is black). What can't be conveyed by the pictures, though, is the feel of the hat. It's a dead-on perfect fit and just feels fantastic every time I put it on. Soft as a baby's bum, as Mom used...
Funny how addictive non-essentials can be. I started wearing bracelets a few years back because a couple I know make beautiful ones, and now I feel naked without one. Same with watches, scarves, etc.
Hi, everyone. I sent Tim a few not-very-good photos of my hat today after trying unsuccessfully to post them directly. As I'm on vacation for the summer now, I'm determined to figure out the process. The pics should be showing up tomorrow, with better ones the beginning of next week.
I dunno, I'm always scanning the internet for a well-made, navy blue corduroy suit. I know Agnes B Homme had one some time ago, but I've yet to see one bob to the surface. I saw Roger Ebert, the film critic, wearing one several years ago, and I've been on the hunt ever since. It always surprises...
Aero LHB in FQHH, for all the reasons Willyto gives, but also for the pockets. Mine has an inside pocket with a snap, and that's where my passport and credit cards go. The outside chest pocket is where tickets go: plane tkts, subway tokens, etc. Funny, but I don't find the leather to be...
I just picked up two pairs of Allen Edmonds new "tropical weaves:" the Leiden weave in dark chile and the Shreveport weave in walnut. Absolutely beautiful shoes that look very nice with linen suits, seersucker, etc.
Speaking of AE, I just noticed last night a big sale of $150.00 off select styles. I went with the Leiden Weaves in Dark Chile: the Walnut was crying out to me, but I recently bought the McAlistairs in that color. The Neumoks are also on sale, as are the Shreveport weaves. Maybe I'll break down...
I'm still waiting for my hat. According to the USPS, it was shipped from Houston on April 4, took six days to get to Talahassee, left there at 8:00 am on the 10th, and disappeared into the Everglades. I called Sunbody yesterday morning and was promised they'd look into it and call back, but they...
