    Shoes: AE shell loafers, Alden shell loafers, Florsheim longwings, Hanover PTBs

    3. Florsheim tan scotch grain longwings. The classic American gunboat. These have been worn, but the uppers are in almost-new condition and the soles have little wear. Size 10.5D. Vintage Florsheims are the coveted prizes of the longwing world, and it's tough to find them in such good...

    In later years, Austin Reed was sold heavily in the US ('70s-'90s, at least). I don't know if that brand was sold in the US in 1954 or not.

    Public Enemies shoes

    Cookie is right. Depp's shoes have what's called a spade sole. Look at the picture below--see how the sole sticks out farther than usual around the front, and then cuts in a a sharp angle at the ball of the foot? That's a spade sole. Shoe makers virtually stopped producing these in the '50s...

    They do look better after polishing.

    Allen Edmonds Special Order

    Honestly, Matt, I think your black ones went off better. IMO suede/smooth spectators need a closer color match. These are nice:

    letting out a waistcoat

    If there's extra fabric, it shouldn't be difficult. If there isn't, or if there isn't enough, a good tailor can make a new, larger back for the waistcoat and attach it to the front.

    A Quandary

    I'd say have them altered, but tell the tailor not to cut away any of the fabric from the seams. That way it can be restored to its original state later.

    Alden for BB unlined shell cordovan pennies, 12D

    Alden for Brooks Brothers unlined penny loafers in Horween #8 shell cordovan. I got these on Ebay a few weeks ago, and had them recrafted by B. Nelson. Nick and his crew did a great job, but the fit on these isn't as good as I would like and that's why I'm letting them go. I had them...

    And the dark cognac shade that RL uses is particularly that way. When you look at it from one angle, it looks lighter, and from another, it looks darker. I have a pair of U-tip bluchers that are exactly the same way.

    Oxxford gray pinstripe suit, 42L

    This is a beautiful Oxxford suit. Dark gray with white and blue pinstripes. I'd put the fabric at around 12 oz., so probably a 3-season suit. As with all Oxxfords, the quality of this one is absolutely unsurpassed. Fully canvassed with hand-padded lapels and hand stitching throughout...

    Hickey Freeman summer suit, 42-44R

    I picked this up last summer, but it's a bit big on me and I need to winnow down the wardrobe. Very nice Hickey Freeman summer suit in a tan nailhead fabric. Fully canvassed, pick-stitching, handstitched collar, very nice construction throughout. Two button, center vent, pleated pants. The...

    '50s tweed jacket, 42-44L

    Got this beautiful '50s tweed jacket the other day, but it's a bit too long on me. Lovely, lovely green/brown/gray houndstooth pattern fabric. 3-roll-2 button stance, with a very nice lapel roll. Center vent, skeleton lining. This is really a gorgeous coat. There are a couple of spots on...
