Levi's makes a pair in the 511 cut.
Bought mine from Urban for $54. Looks just like those but obviously slimmer.

lol @ H&M. I guess that's whats hot now. J Crew has been on fire lately. Some questionable pieces, but overall an awesome line up for S/S 11.

Fair warning but seriously, stop with the GILT spamming. Several people in this thread already got warned and/or banned. Appreciate the heads up but no need to spam it.

Fellas I've got a minor sartorial conundrum.
Being in a small college town right now, I haven't found any tailors that I fully trust, and I can't drive to any bigger cities right now. There is a high end men's store here, and the do tailoring, but it's a two step process. One of their employees "pins" the clothes as you're wearing them, then they send to their tailor who does the actual cutting and sewing.
Anyone have any experience with this? Is it an issue at all that the tailor won't be seeing the clothes on the body and pinning them?
Nii, fresh as usual btw. Especially like the camel/khaki look.

Most alteration shops follow the same model. The customer service person pins/chalks you up, and then the goonie goon tailors in the back do the sewing. Personally i had mixed results with this approach. Some things turned out great, and some things were just off (like pants with the lengths not even, poor shoulder work, taking more fabric than need making one sleeve tighter than the other).
Needless to say, i finally got frustrated with the amount of rework and went to a tailor who handles all the stuff himself. he chalks and then does the sewing himself. There is still some rework every now and then cos he has his opinions on fit and so do i, plus i an anal about my clothes ... but all in all, its been a better experience having one person do it.
I'd say give your folks a try with some basic stuff, slimmnig of sleeves, lengthening etc. if they are consistently doing it right, then go to the heavier stuff.
Just my $0.02.

I agree with Nii, only do to that tailor for the basic stuff, like a simple hem and taper, those tend to be pretty simple they can be done easily. For a more complex type of work, I'd prefer the tailor to measure me himself.

Just my Red Wings. The 6inch are actually from the Inspired line last year, and I have a pair of 875's coming in. Hoping to distress/custom the inspired ones this weekend. Also got the tan chukkas for a great price considering they retail for $220. Those threw some mink oil on them as well as beat them with a hammer! The leather on these are hella stiff!

Very nice mix of textures/fabrics Nil, and loving the suede 2 button blazer.
Also, are those Crockett Jones/Ralph Lauren saddle oxfords? If not they are dead on with having a properly cut saddle pattern.

i love jackets with banded- collars. i prefer them over traditional collars, especially on leather jackets. i've been trying to find a wool winter jacket with that type of collar but its hard to find a simple, non-military one.
