Show off the sports coats.
Found this at the thrift store today. Any thoughts on its age? The lapels, vent, and iridescent jacquard lining sort of say '50s to me, but I could very well be wrong. No labels or tags of any kind. -
Shoe Care / Shoe Shine
That was deliberate. My shoes that have been "naturally" antiqued over time with regular polishing have gotten darker on the toes than the rest of the shoes, and that's what I wanted to imitate. I was going for something like Edward Green's Dark Oak color. While these pictures don't show...- Orgetorix

Shoe Care / Shoe Shine
First attempt at shoe antiquing/dyeing A while back, I Ebayed a pair of AE's discontinued Brantley bal boots. While I'd been looking for a pair of bal boots for a while and was happy to snag these after a long time looking, I'd never been terribly happy with the color, an orangey tan that I...- Orgetorix

Gah! So that's why this groom looks so annoyed in this picture. His groomsmen thought they were going to WWF, instead of his wedding! Poor schlubs. -

Please help me with formalwear for my wedding...
Another possibility is that it may just have been cut for someone whose arm was permanently crooked. Bespoke tailors often compensate for such physical characteristics. -

It may also have been cut for a dancer. Their coats are often cut with strange sleeve and shoulder setups because of the positions they hold their arms in. As to shoulder seams, it'd be difficult or impossible to cut any type of coat without them. This is because, where the front and back... -
Are notch lapel dinner jackets "correct"?
I was pretty forceful in advocating for the acceptability of the NLDJ the last time we discussed this topic. I've stayed out of this discussion so far because, well, I've made all my points (here and the pages following), and principally because the person who was most strident in abhorring the... -

Cool (But Sold) eBay Stuff
More Ebay foolishness: a small, moth-eaten, not-very-old Savile Row topcoat went for $1700. This seller normally lists his items very well and fetches decent prices, but this is extreme. Lucky him to have a couple of idiots with deep pockets fighting over his auction... -
Shoe Care / Shoe Shine
I'd try a leather cleaner/conditioner like Lexol, Saphir Renovateur, or the stuff that Allen-Edmonds sells. If that doesn't work, a very small amount of acetone, used very sparingly, should take it off. Make sure you condition the leather after using acetone, as acetone is harsh and can dry it...- Orgetorix
