i trust that this new thread of yours will gain more views that the current one which clocked at 1500 odds.

i don't contribute much to this thread i'll just leave that to the regulars here, anyway, if it pleases you, Lordmj, could we please have your mercy to initiate a sticky thread on "so you want to get a dress shirt made" in near future? (man, i sounded like a devotee now)

I agree. I would like his expertise on such things. We all know gay men dress up the best!

Sir, this here is one of the best idea that comes out of this thread. Majority of the other posts were more like "This is what I have, but I aint sharing the source/idea with ya! nyeh nyeh!"

id just get another pair----each for different occasion,,,

the slim fit for wear before making love

the regular fit is for after = relaxed,,,,

Bad idea. Slim fit, the tightness around the crotch area might lessen the libido, not to mention any.. er.. enlargement in the area would be uncomfortable as well...

Oh and I agree.. just get another pair

Just finished a meeting, boring except for 2 facts. The lady wore a very loose and low cut dress, and she repeated find reason to lean down as much as possible... but that's for another forum.

The german guy, wore an unremarkable shirt.. except for the fact that his sleeve pleats consist of a total of 6 folds! I couldnt help but keep staring at it...

BTW, We could all come to some agreement on prices that we would pay AL & inform him that we will not pay beyond these prices. If sufficient number of those on the forum agree to boycott him or take the business away as a result of the excessive pricing, he may have little choice but to keep his choices reasonable.

Conversely, we could also group together & leverage our collective purchasing power to obtain better prices from other tailors & suppliers.

Thank God I paid some attention at the management courses we were sent to!!

Why not, came at the right time as well, my wife just informed me i need a new blazer. Apparently the current one have been feeding a family of roaches...

The problem with having double tier charges is that you will start losing customers. If an establishment charges a flat price (even if it's high) their customer atleast wouldnt felt as if they have been taken for a water fish.

Soo... I walked into this tailor franchise...

browsing some stuff while waiting for my wife...

Wanted to test if I can tell the difference between canvassed suit (which I cant),

So I asked the PIC who is there, "Sir, is this fully canvassed?" while inspecting one of their bespoked suit,

He quickly say "No no! This is not canvass... its wool!"

Alrighty......

Then I was looking at their shirts, bespoked, i noticed all using plastic buttons, so i asked
"Sir, do you have any MOP buttons?"

He was keen to please "Ofcourse, we have something just like it!" Promptly pulling out a folder and showing me their range of buttons.

I browse thru it and said "But sir, they are all plastic...", which he promptly pointed out my ignorance "No no! See this one and this one.. they -LOOK- like MOP buttons right?!"

I thanked the man and went grab some McD sundae...

Oh.. it's de-Catano branch in Summit....
