    Black Suit

    Often when I wear a black suit, people think it's midnight blue. go figure [huh] And on the subject, I was looking to pick some folks' brains. I have 2 different very interesting black jackets; one a 1933 dated Belgium-made single breasted peak lapel with a great nipped waist cut to it and...

    "Old School" grace and mannerisms?

    You should say "Good Morning!" as a parting line to people! I've seen this in a lot of golden era films. I guess somewhere over the years it evolved into "Have a Nice Day" or to reserve it for a lead in to a conversation instead of a final line. I dig it though :)

    Flecked Shirts

    Ok good to hear! I thought I was the only one didn't fit into their mold. Also if you check out the various sizing of the RRL line, they can be all over the place with mediums at times having upwards of almost 50" chests! What were they trying to keep up with Peterman!? :eusa_doh: :p Love...

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    How do you know the specifics of what soles you have? I know mine are leather single soled. They have Quabaug rubber heels, I was hoping they'd have Cat's Paw heels like I've seen on some japanese sites, but no luck. So I'm looking around for eventual replacement Cat's Paw heels. How open are...

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    I like the Red Wing a lot, but side by side, White's boot makes the Gentleman Traveler look like just another boot! I realize that's crazy to say, but it's true!

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    I got a pair on ebay for about $275 aaaand I love em! They were rough to break in, mainly around the ankle but I wear them almost every day now and can't speak highly enough of them! (Although the 400 buck price tag is, in my mind, too much for any shoe, but to each his own) The pair I got...

    Flecked Shirts

    I don't think I'm a strange size, but I think their shirts always fit me a bit weird... mainly that the collar is just a bit too tight, as if they are designing their stuff for people who aren't going to button the top button and wear a tie. I'm a 40" chest with a 34" arm and a 16" neck but...

    RIP VHS is Dead

    Also one day we will probably be hit by one of the regularly occurring interstellar magnetic storms that has bombarded the Earth often in our history, but hasn't really happened since the technology boom of the last few generations. I think the last one was around the turn of the last century...

    RIP VHS is Dead

    I agree! And as far as aspect ratio I am annoyed that I needed to go for a wide screen tv since it's all that's available today. I watch mainly 20's-40's films on TCM or history channel related shows. It's a no win situation if I have to choose between a smaller image with black bars on the...

    RIP VHS is Dead

    Blu Ray and HD are just baby steps towards the future. I'm just waiting for the next major announcement connected to Cern Laboratories in Switzerland to revolutionize the entire playing field. I don't doubt in the soon future we'll be able to hold our entire media collections on virtually a...

    What are you wearing today??

    This is a very cool look! I really like the 30's working casual look a lot! I also think the idea of mixing 30's work wear styles with fedoras is a great look that you don't see today.

    Strictly in Japan and Europe for some reason. Although if you follow the link I left above, there's a site in Britain, http://www.oipolloi.com/ that stocks them and easily sends to the US.

    Yes that's a large and the seller seems like a great guy! I found a site that sells the rest of the sizes of the spectrum though! And for 20% off the original price no less! It's linked off the above website. Although if anyone's interested in a large I'd suggest going with the Ebay one as...
