Dressing Better Vol 2.0

do you get these ties online or in store? my local store seemingly never discounts the ties..and online i never like the ones on sale. well there was one and i woke up to a 40% off and it was gone..i almost copped an ugly orange knit one as a consolation :lol:
In store, man.
 
Its a Thompson. I made an appointment with a tailor today and I'm still going to go mostly for a consult becuase the reactions from this thread have not been pretty.

I feel like I should have gotten a short too as opposed to a regular, need to stop kidding myself like I'm not a manlet :lol: :smh:

i assumed it was a thompson but i don't recall you stating that it was something else, because ludlow's definitely don't look like that.

what is your height? you may have been better off with a short than a regular.

don't let the size mess with your psyche, the fit is most important.

I'm 5'8.

The only way to learn is through trial and error.

i would recommend on getting the short.

did you buy the thompson online or try in store? you may be better off returning the jacket for a short and possibly a size smaller because like others said in here the jacket looked a little big.

once you have your size down, then bring to a tailor for minimal alterations such as pants hem and sleeve shortening. unless you need more like taking in the jacket or pants tapering but these alterations bring your total cost up.

then you if you're willing to pay for more of these alterations then it may have been better off in buying a ludlow if you're sticking with j.crew.

I'm 5'10". I rock a short on suiting fabrics and a regular for tweeds since I see those as outerwear and layer a sweater under.
 
I have two pairs of ludlow pants I bought recently I need to get some simple hemming done on. Also they are a little big in the waist, want them to be taken in a couple inches. Is taking in the waist a couple, or a few, inches pretty routine for tailors? Like can I take it to any tailor to get this done?

pretty basic alteration for most tailors so should be good.
 
Anyone got any promo-codes or know the next sale for Jcrew? I tried the "Facebook25" one and it didn't work. Lost weight and need to pick up another pair Ludlow pants.

Current sale ends the 20th, so prob sometime after that, although Ludlow stuff is often excluded.
