    These aren't dress pants, but these chinos have the fuller cut you're talking about http://thosecatholicmen.com/be-un-naked-forget-jeans-and-wear-pants/ https://www.billskhakis.com/

    I threw my vintage suit in the washing machine

    I put my suit in the washing machine to clean it from old man junk and to make it fit better. It now fits perfectly everywhere, except maybe the suit sleeves. But I'm fine with showing a little extra shirt sleeve.

    Agreed. Ever since I discovered wool trousers, I've stopped wearing jeans. Wool trousers are just much more comfortable. Also you don't have to wash them unless you suffer some kind of "accident."

    Interesting. I'm a big fan of medium grey to light grey suits, so yes all my suits are in one color. I find my moonstone FED IV "good enough" for summer. Black cap toe is all I need =). I might find a pair of black brogue shoes if my cap toes ever wear out. I still enjoy wearing my ushanka, so...

    Show NO Shirt Cuff

    I know =). However, I don't want to show my shirt sleeves anymore because of the armpit stains on my dress shirt, I can't afford OxyClean. I also want to dress "a bit" more modestly. Research proves that the less skin you show, the more intelligible people will think of you. This video sums it...

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    My little brother says I look like a "detective." I was wearing a suit and fedora.

    Show NO Shirt Cuff

    When did dress shirts stop being classified as undergarments? Anyone else consider it inappropriate to show your shirt sleeves in public? For example: always wearing your jacket/sweater.

    Ever since I've gotten my first felt this summer I don't feel the urge to buy anymore hats. I'm more of a vintage suit guy I guess. Anyone else like this?

    Use of cufflinks - When to...and when not to. A question.

    I still consider shirt sleeves as undergarments. I always wear a jacket or at least a sweater that covers my entire chest and arms =).

    Repairing suit trousers

    I won't mind if I have to use a different fabric to repair my trousers. I'll probably try to match the fabric as closely as possible, if not slightly darker will do. Besides, suits are made to be worn. You can't just throw the entire suit out when a small part wears out.

    I threw my vintage suit in the washing machine

    Ask any questions if you wish. EDIT: Everything fits perfectly now, except maybe the suit sleeves. I'm out of fabric to make the suit sleeves longer, so i'll live with showing too much shirt sleeves.

    I threw my vintage suit in the washing machine

    So I threw my vintage medium weight worsted wool suit in the washing machine. These were the results: The pant hems shrank about an inch. The suit sleeves shrank about an inch or 2 A bit of waist suppression was added The shoulders of the suit shrank 2 sizes (It was a 40R suit, so...

    Repairing suit trousers

    Where can I get matching fabric from my trousers? Is there any place on my trousers where I can "remove" extra fabric which is not visible to the public? Sorry if I'm not making any sense.

    Repairing suit trousers

    There are no holes in my trousers yet, but the stiching that hold the seat/crotch together seem to be falling apart. Can my tailor just sew them back up/ reinforce them? I'm going to ask them tomorrow.

    Repairing suit trousers

    Has anyone experienced this problem? Has anyone wore their trouser seat in a suit? Tell me what you did and how you repaired it.

    In a lot of modern suits, you can't even wear cuff links with your jacket =).
