I've purchased a Classic 118 Schott Perfecto made from cowhide a couple years ago, I generally like it although one complaint I have(that I have also seen from other people as well) is that it's pretty heavy and bulky. I'd prefer to have something much lighter that I can wear anytime, including...

I was looking for some advice on getting a pair of leather pants. I previously bought a pair from Vanson, but they were really constricting and heavy and I really just didn't like them. I understand Vanson is considered a good brand so I'm not knocking them, but I'd like to know if anyone can...

I was looking into the possibility of getting a leather jacket that's a different style from my current one(Schott Perfecto), and I really love the look of YSL's leather jackets. They generally have a sleek kind of style to them and look more like a "fashion" jacket and less like a classic...

I was looking for a men's dress shoe, admittedly I'm not very knowledgeable about that kind of shoe. I already have boots, its shoes I'm looking for. As for lace or slip on, I wasn't sure, I'd assume lace. I'm generally thinking of "gentleman" style shoes, if that makes sense, but with a sharper...

I'd say from a few hundred dollars to around $500 or $600. For these kind of shoes I don't really know what the price points are for them to be worth it. I do know that I want to avoid going into the really high prices designer items get into, where you're getting into almost $1,000 and such.

I was thinking about getting a nice pair of dress shoes, and wanted some suggestions on what shoes to get that fit my criteria. Namely really good quality leather with a really sharp toe; but at prices that are more reasonable and not designer prices. Does anyone have any recommendations for...

Thanks for the responses so far. I'm curious, going by the photo, what do you think of the length and look overall? Does it look fine as is? Or would you say it really does need the sleeves hemmed? Also, the shirt is actually velveteen, not velvet, does that matter? Wasn't sure if that would...

I bought a really nice leopard print velvet shirt recently, and I love how it looks and fits. However, the sleeves seem rather long: You can see how far it goes down my hand that's hanging down. Does anyone know if it would be feasible to have the sleeves hemmed a couple inches? I wasn't...

I have an opportunity to buy a vintage navy peacoat, and was curious about two things in particular. One is, I wonder if anyone can tell if it's truly vintage and determine its authenticity from looking at it? The seller doesn't have much information on it, like it's background or what time...

Thanks for the responses so far! I'm curious, how do the suits from both SuitSupply, and that Spier & Mackay fit? True to size, larger, or smaller fit? I see some sources claiming both sizes fit slim and not true to size, is this true?

I was interested in getting a really nice suit, something nice and fitted and classy looking. But I didn't want to spend thousands of dollars trying to get a Tom Ford(either from the site directly or second hand), or trying to spend that much getting one custom made. Does anyone have any...

Hi, I bought a custom made leather wallet made from shell cordovan leather a good while back, and unfortunately got these pretty bad scratches on it: Is there any way I can fix these scratches using a leather cream polish? I was thinking of using Saphir Pommadier Cream Shoe Polish(in the same...

I have an uncropped one showing my whole head, if it will help.

Can anyone let me know if my hat is sitting on my head properly? I was worried that maybe it was sitting too high on my head, but I wasn't sure and figured I'd ask for outside opinions.
