What are you wearing today??

That first coat is awesome. The lapels! Also love the color coordination in your ensembles.

If you ever decide to part with that '36 Dinner Suit, please let me know. That is the year my Grandpa was born, and he is from California too!

Thanks - I've just posted a couple more photos of it in the 'Show us your sports coats' thread.

For me the secret of good colour coordination is a wide selection of ties. So I went on holiday with one tie for each day:

I think you'll need to put on quite a bit of weight before you fit into that suit!

Haha, that's for sure. Would be more for him, as well... formal events are not my thing right now

Very nice suits you have though! And a handy amount of ties too!

You have been holding out on us in the Ties thread. I don't remember seeing the polo pony tie.

I'm pretty sure these have probably all been posted on the ties thread at some point.

P.S. I think it's horse racing, not polo.

I couldn't agree more! What an amazing "belly" they have. It's like a caricature of a jacket. Wonderful color, too.

Just curious Splinter why do you call it a beanie,up here in the frozen north we use the word "toque" pronounced like toook?

 

[splintercellsz]

That's what I have always called it But I should be calling it a ski-mask type thing, it becomes a full fase mask when rolled down. Not sure if there is an actual name for it. Now I know a new one though... Toque..

If it becomes a full face mask it's called a "Balaclava" probably not spelled correctly

 

[splintercellsz]

Thats the term, lol! I can't believe I forgot it. Gotta love long days, aye?

Ski mask works,you could say Face mask but then they'd think you're going to play hockey or you're Jason from Friday The 13th or Michael Meyers of Halloween fame.As for long days I ain't got much going on anyway.Glad you liked the Pony joke(haha)

 

[splintercellsz]

Haha, that one was awesome!

I rarely wear it as a ski mask though... people may think I am going to go raid something, LOL!

Probably a lot worse freaks around Reno any given weekend than you in a ski mask(maybe not)?

Down town for sure! I'd be fine there, but here in the better part, yeah... not unless it is snowing, hah!
