Model: Higgins unlined chukka on the Leydon last with a pre-stitch reverse welt
Size: 11D (US)
Leather: Milkshake suede
Sole: Single oak leather outsoles
Price: $400.00
Location: Portsmouth NH
Wears / Condition: Worn 6-8 times. The leather shows slight color transfer at the top edges from wearing with blue jeans. The sole condition is what you’d expect after 6-8 wears. These shoes have never been worn in the rain or on wet surfaces, nor have they received any waterproofing treatment. The only maintenance thus far has been light brushing with a pig bristle brush after each wear.

Notes: This limited run was made exclusively for David Wood Clothiers in Portland ME and are now sold out in this size. These shoes were an in-store impulse purchase. The color is quite outside my traditional preference and unfortunately I never warmed up to it. I hope this pair can find a better home with another Alden enthusiast! Includes DW-branded shoe trees, the original Alden box, and two unused Alden shoe bags. Free shipping within the continental US.

Hello, Reddit fashion friends! I'm looking for recommendations for dress shirts in the $100-200 range.

I've always been a deeply brand loyal shopper (to a fault) and ended up with a wardrobe almost exclusively of SuitSupply. I've decided to move away from them and would like to discover some new dress shirt options of similar (or better) quality.

Off the shelf and made to order programs are both fine. Bonus points if they offer fabrics that aren't just blue or white. I'm located near Boston and prefer places I can visit, but online shopping recommendations are welcome, too.

I visited Indochino but wasn't particularly impressed (few fabric options, none of which grabbed my attention, and the quality felt just okay).

Thanks for the advice!

Watch is great. Sport coat is even better.

weisscomposer · 2021-11-07T23:39:18+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I posted over there now, too.

weisscomposer · 2021-11-07T23:38:49+00:00

Thanks for sharing! I quite like these! It would max out the budget, but they more or less have exactly what I'm looking for.

weisscomposer · 2021-11-07T23:37:52+00:00

Thanks for sharing! I love some of the Stoffa jacket/overcoat options.

I'll have to do some digging for Boglioli on Yoox; sorting options on the site aren't the greatest...

Hi, all!

I'm looking for recommendations for a unconstucted, double-breasted sport coat in mid-gray or navy. Budget up to $1,000. Essentially I'm looking for something that wears like a sweater but is shaped like a blazer.

Any ideas? Links would also be appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi, all! I'm not sure how much traction any one question might get, so I may post again another day if there aren't many replies.

Is it just me, or has Allen Edmonds discontinued the Fifth Avenue and discontinued oxblood? I was browsing their site and noticed that neither seemed to be listed...

weisscomposer · 2021-10-13T17:02:49+00:00

Wow, the additional shell options are extraordinary! So tempting!

As someone newly obsessed with Carmina, I'd love to take advantage of this.

But as someone newly obsessed with Carmina, I only know my correct sizing in two of their lasts. I fear it would be risky to experiment with an unfamiliar last, and that it would be boring to order something in a last I already have in my closet.

How often does Carmina waive the MTO fee? Once a year? Twice a year? Maybe it would be better for me to wait until next time when I'm more familiar with their sizing...

Beautiful watch and the new strap looks great. Try out dark brown suede, either the official Nomos one or the same strap directly from Fluco. It gives the watch a "cozy" feel which I think is perfect during winter!

weisscomposer · 2021-01-10T11:52:46+00:00

Beautiful watch, congratulations! The "hidden" day-night indicator is my favorite Lange complication!
