BGOL SARTORIALISTS: A thread

That's the whole point of custom. In order to get them they way you want them, they offer everything.

You can just choose no pleats, with jean pockets for a regular jean. It's not that complicated.

Cuffs or no cuffs, your choice.

Thanks for the link, I just have to spend time learning all that shit. They could show samples of what your material looks like with your custom design like www.indochino.com or the other custom suit / shirt websites.

clean suit...

I just got chalked up today....:smh: tailor told me they are going to have to do a complete custom job on my shit

Ive been loving my first custom suit, I got mine made by Lee Tailoring in Indianapolis. I paid 1200 +200 for a one time dummy suit. But I honestly have a new addiction,Im looking at getting a Black and a brown my first was Greyish deep blue with:2 buttons,center vent,no pleats,2 inch lapel,functioning buttons and pink paisley lining with my full name stitched on the inside.
Suit can be altered 20lbs up or 20lbs down. I was like this:dance:
 
I pulled the trigger and got some custom wingtip boots from mantorii but they went out of business.

They are honoring all orders already in the system and I must say these joints fit very comfortably out the box on both feet. (My feet are slightly different sizes and they are both wide)
 


A hat maker once slapped my hand away for doing that.


The number one cardinal rule of owning a fine hat is never ever grab it by the crown like that.


You put it on and off by holding the brim.


The felt is different between the two, and the oils from your fingers will damage the crown by grabbing it like that.

If you're gonna buy jeans may as well get raw denim

true. its an acquired taste tho. and not everybody wants to take care of raw denim.

check out Gustin denim... they basically buy the denim wholesale and make the jeans. So you look at what they have available, and choose a certain jean or shirt.. and when the selected amount of people state that they want it, they place the bulk order, make and ship the jeans. Takes a lil longer but better cost than most raw denim.

click on how it works. kinda dope way to keep costs down n pass some savings on...



the link below gives u (and me) $20 off your order if u decide to buy. i usually dont post aff. links but it's a 20% discount so who wouldn't want it...

I get compliments every time I wear those joints. They look even better in person.
I can tell that they look good in real life. I'm just glad that I now have good alternative to my usual Johnston & Murphys. I also have a mental block against spending too much money on good shoes.
 
yo tex are those u ordered comfortable?

if u like meermin, also take a look at moustache.

that whole international shipping kinda scares me away from both brands cuz i'm always 1/2 size off when i order shoes online:smh:... but if ur down for it these do look pretty damn good @ $145.


on the american scene u got 2 newcomers in the <$200 range...

http://jackerwin.com/ based out of nyc are around $195
and
http://www.beckettsimonon.com/ based out of chitown i think... has some great deals under $100 + a $15 off coupon offer going on...

stayfresh.
 
All i'm going to say is that when it comes to leather shoes, especially those with leather soles i've learned over time that you get what you pay for.

u can pay for some $300+ shoes that prolly wont hold up over time... like prada, gucci and farragamos. look good but not built to last.

u could catch some allen edmonds on sale for $150 or so and they will last u a decade easy if ur taking care of them.

its not the $ u spend, its the quality of the shoe... imo...

I've had my cap toe by Allen Edmonds 10 years plus ... keep them in shoe trees and keep them shined.

I've had a pair of Kenneth coles for over 10 years as well but you can tell the difference ... even though they live in shoe trees, they on they last leg.

These mantorii's is nice but only worn a few times in 3 or so months. Shoe trees & stay clean.
