I'm okay with the rest apart from the sleeve length.


Added on April 27, 2010, 5:02 pmI'm not sure about the unlined back. It seems that your shirt and all the seams are very visible even though you're wearing a light shirt.

I'm now convinced that a pair of unlined linen pants in beige(sans back pockets) can be very sexy.

Odd trousers would show the contour lines of my jockstraps perfectly.

Oh, thanks for the cussing. You've reminded me of my first appointment with him next Saturday.

OK. The shape of those buttonholes is erm... let's talk about it some other time since you're very self-absorbed at the moment.

i think alt buttonholes are nice and acceptable,,,,we dont have to pursue perfection everytime
the last thing we want people to label us when they see teh clothes we wear is to call us perfectionist

attention to detail is good thing, but sometimes too perfect seems unnatural

Unlike machine-made buttonoles, hand-made buttonholes must never be perfect. I call them Shibui. There is apparent difference between buttonholes made by an amateur and a master. A master is most exrent.

Hand made ones are not perfect however they can be close to perfect when done right.

Stop being a wet blanket! I just don't understand you SF people! Why hate polyester? My dad used to have polyester pants made and it wears very well. And don't talk about heat when you can even stand for hours wearing jeans.

Bought a pair of Star side buckles for RM2 from the haberdasher. It's called 'lou yan kau' in Canto.


Added on May 11, 2010, 4:27 pmI went to another MBT this time for my kaPOW pants. He's an 80 year old man who works at home. Reluctant to open the door at first but finally give in.

Deets of kaPOW pants
-Single forward pleat
-1.5" cuffs
-2.5" extended waistband
-Side buckles
