    Seersucker shirts

    Seersucker shirts are always created as sport shirts, made to be worn without a tie and often short-sleeved. A seersucker dress shirt would be an oddity, but I've never seen one of those. JP, do you starch the hell out of shirts you wear when you're lying around on the beach? That's about...

    Show us your repro suits

    To be charitable to Matt, I think he's said he has lost weight since that photo was taken. So he really was wider--it's not just an illusion created by the clothes. :)

    WANTED--A small fedora

    My dad recently saw my BCF hat and expressed interest in getting a hat for himself. His birthday is April 21st, and I thought it's be great if I could find something for him by then. The lucky so-and-so has a tiny head (21 3/4"), so I'm looking around for a size 6 7/8 or 7 fedora for him. I...

    Point the crown of your hat into the wind, and it'll be less likely to blow off.

    Brooks Brothers dress for success

    And if you do shop at the outlets, look for stuff that doesn't have "346" in big numbers on the tag--just the Brooks Brothers script logo. You'll sometimes find it, especially on the clearance racks.

    Suits in Teheran - Maybe Not

    That's right. These suits were given to them after they were let out of their cells. I doubt they even took their measurements. We shouldn't be surprised at the poor quality or expect the Iranians to have given them anything different. Sorry, but your observation simply doesn't apply...

    What would you bid on this?

    Do you already have a suit or sportcoat that fits you well? If not, go to a thrift store and try on jackets until you find one that feels good. Doesn't matter what quality it is, you're just looking for a baseline to help with measurements. Once you have a jacket that fits, look at this...
