AE vs eBay
Allen Edmonds Sanford Cap Toe 10.5 D
The next episode in the AE/eBay saga arrived today. I figured out the hard way that 9.5 D and 10 D don’t work. I’m happy to say that the 10.5 D fits and these shoes are gorgeous. Great condition and I love the color. Only problem…they’re just not very comfortable.
I spent Thanksgiving with some friends and one mentioned that...

Just got this in the mail from moderntailor.com. Full review later.
thingsthatpleaseme asked: I've had problems with Rugby chinos in the past; apparently they're VERY variable pair to pair in terms of sizing. Someone suggested I just try on a stack of my size and one will fit the way I want 'em. Good luck

Rugby Corduroy's on Sale for $60
It’s a Christmas miracle. After complaining about J. Crew’s Cords, someone suggested I check out Rugby’s. I went down and bought a pair yesterday for $80. That’s on the high side for pants for me, but I liked them a lot.

Corduroys, anyone?
Where can I find a decent pair of corduroy pants for a decent price? I’m thinking sub $75.
I just got a pair of J. Crew Bowery Cord in Urban Slim fit on sale for $60 in the mail and I’m not super happy with them.
First the positive. The length is right. The price is right. And the color is tight.
And on to the negative. There is too much room in the seat. Not as stupid as...
