    The Fedora that fits your face.

    I do say.. this photo always puts me in the spirit of going for a stingy brim... but I need the skinny lapels and skinny tie to go with it.

    Reproduction Suits & Jackets?

    Just a big list and some info on repro makers out there https://deckardsguide.wordpress.com/2017/10/20/menswear-repro-roundup/ This goes into belt backs. SJC changed their design after reading this and thanked me. I have a few friends that have their beltbacks and might post a few shots with...

    Getting your stripes in order.

    Stripes meet stripes (best case scenario). I’ve argued with a lot of tailors. Thinking it through when it comes to this subject, I’m right. Don’t let them tell you otherwise because what I’m about to expound is common sense. See my previous blog, You should know better and so should your...

    Modern Stetson "High Crown" Excellent Quality Whippet Phantom Grey 7 3/8

    They did change the design a little since the production sample I made up for japan. The Whippet logo on the inside is gone, and the leather I originally used was a roan leather russet brown. Also, they are using a poly ribbon now instead of the cotton rayon original I had on the samples. It's...

    I admire how they have become one of the focal points for repro edwardian looks in the UK.

    Placement and proportions for the belt back suit

    Looks good GHT. The belted back look looks good on any sized man if it's proportioned right with the suit.

    Placement and proportions for the belt back suit

    Placement and proportions for the belt back suit Matt Deckard Uncategorized November 1, 2017 4 Minutes This one comes as more of a demand from a few friends who needed some answers ASAP as they saw the Simon James Cathcart ‘Chevalier’ suit had an action back that was the same design I’d...

    Don't fall off

    It's been a useful addition to the syle, and when elastic, a good comedy trope.

    Don't fall off

    The fitted hat These are traditionally men’s hats such as the derby, the fedora and the top hat. They are made in multiple sizes or can be made custom to the exact size and shape of the wearer’s head. The preferred fit is loose enough to not leave a visible mark on the forehead, yet snug enough...

    Fallen arches. Not the defeated enemies in front of you, the enemies beneath you

    The ones I'm showing aren't full sized, they stop before the toes. I know the issue of having something in your shoe that just makes your toes hit the top. That's why these were such a difference

    Fallen arches. Not the defeated enemies in front of you, the enemies beneath you

    I wore those same ones for a while, but for me, they just didn't do the same thing as their tri comfort version which is just like the English company plantar orthotics.

    Fallen arches. Not the defeated enemies in front of you, the enemies beneath you

    It’s always been a trick, having shoes in which you can walk all over town, then deciding that you want to attend a venue where you’ll be dancing and realizing… these shoes I’m wearing… they have rubber soles and they don’t spin worth a damn! A few years back I wrote an article about shoes...

    We have lost a hatter.

    We have lost a hatter. There isn’t a Wiki page for certain people. He had passion; fortitude far beyond what I could ever muster. When I met him he was wearing a dress shirt with the sleeves cut off, there wasn’t a time I saw him where he didn’t look ready for action. He told me, that in...

    J. Crew Ludlow Shoes

    Not about Alden, Allen Edmonds… Johnston and Murphy There are a few grand companies still left in the US that classic American shoe. I do wish they would make more ankle boots as I tend to go off roading in my leather souled footwear and there is a big hole in the market when it comes to a...
