When did city slickers start wearing jeans?
To this day you can not walk though the front door of the New York Athletic Club wearing jeans. You have to use the service entrance just as you do when wearing workout gear. I once had a 'moment' with JFK jr when we found ourselves riding up to the men's locker room in the back service...- Tomasso

Vintage Suitings: Discussions of, and sourcing modern equivalents, etc.
Serge is a great choice for a travel suit as it's very wrinkle resistant. Even the lighter stuff drapes well due to the weave. But if you love a nice handle it's probably not for you. You know how women get touchy feely when you wear lux cloth; well you won't have to worry about that with serge. -
The Allen Edmonds / Men's Warehouse brand?
The heel issue is something I've encountered a few times with brands at the high end of the shoe pyramid. I think that it's something that happens and is difficult for quallity control to spot. The wonky welt stitching is another story; totally inexcusable.- Tomasso

I had a similar jacket but in cotton. It had barrel cuffs and flaps on the pockets. Same back with a functional box pleat. It was from Abercrombie & Fitch circa 1960- Tomasso

In what era were the best hats in America made?
This is common in other sections of the FLounge as well. -
In what era were the best hats in America made?

A larger brim suits your face and physique much better. Hard to tell from the pics how well the colors work with your skin tone. -
