Additionally if the trousers are not made well it's very easy to see when the pleat is off on a creased pant. This is because the pleat connects to the crease and the crease must fall onto the center of the shoe.

"ON RESPECTABILITY IN DRESS Every once in a while people here will get mad at me. And it often involves the same issue: respectability in dress. Or its related cousin: dress codes. Judging someone's deeper more important qualities based on attire often feels so natural; people get upset when I refuse to engage in the same judgment. To them it feels as though I'm denying something so obvious I'm dishonest.

You can dry clean them of course but that seems like a hassle for a t-shirt. You can also define high quality as something that holds its shape over time.

"Scarves that I think are cool: X. Begg x Co: One of the finest producers in Scotland. They were annoyingly expensive ten years ago and have since only gotten more annoyingly expensive largely because they've moved upstream with a new design team. On the upside the line is even more attractive now if you can stomach the prices. I prefer their lightweight oversized scarves which create these wonderful folds when worn. For this check out their "Wispy" model. They used to have something called the Kishorn which was my favorite (a little less wispy than Wispy) but at the moment they only have this"

All of the pleated trousers I've posted thus far are bespoke from Savile Row Neapolitan and Hong Kong firms. If one wanted to make the argument pleats are harder to get right than a flat front because the pleat needs to stay closed when in a resting position. Additionally if the trousers are not made well it's very easy to see when the pleat is off on a creased pant. This is because the pleat connects to the crease and the crease must fall onto the center of the shoe. The double reverse pleat"

A few years ago I had a debate with a knowledgeable friend about whether an educated person can tell the difference between quality ready-to-wear and bespoke. He took the "yes" position; I took the "no." I'm still skeptical anyone can but while browsing the outfits at this year's Wimbledon my favorite was Kumar Sangakkara's Solaro suit (pictured above). It turns out it's a bespoke suit from Whitcomb & Shaftesbury."

"I believe this video was taken in the 1970s so this was after the split. In 1849 an English shoemaker named John Lobb started his own shoemaking company which he named after himself. Then in 1901 he opened a store in Paris and shortly after in 1904 another on Regent Street. Both of these were shops were a customer would be measured for bespoke shoes. The in the 1970s Hermes licensed the John Lobb name to sell ready-to-wear shoes. Eventually they purchased the Paris store and continue to use the John Lobb name. So now there are two John Lobbs. The one on St. James of London is the original"

"If you're interested in bespoke tailoring and based in the United States I have some trunk show announcements to share with you. There's a generally observed rule when it comes to ordering clothes from a bespoke tailor: stick to the house style. The term "house style" refers to the natural way a tailor is accustomed to making things which results in a particular silhouette. Just as you wouldn't order Chinese food from a Mexican chef you shouldn't order an Italian jacket from an English tailor. @urban_comp is one of the few people I've seen successfully break this rule.

"However how you cut matters a lot. When you lay out a hide it can look very uniform but hidden beneath the surface is the fiber structure. The parts closer to the animal's spine with be very compact; the parts further from the spine shoulders belly will be spongey"

"For this reason a quality manufacturer should only cut from the best parts of the hide when making the shoe's uppers. But to save costs many will try to squeeze as many shoes as they can out of a hide which means using parts closer to the shoulder and belly"

"Depending on the tannage and cutting this can result in something called "loose grain" where the wrinkles are very pronounced. Not a big deal on work boots perhaps even more authentic as that's how work boots were made in the past"

"Not sure if they still do ties but Dominique Lelys used to design the ties at Arny's a legendary men's store on the Left Bank of Paris. Their designs were quite playful similar to Hermes. Lelys now does a line called Artums which may be worth a look if you like the Hermes's style but want something more unique. For more about French style check out my friend @RJdeMans's book Swan Songs which is about the rapidly disappearing world of craft-based menswear in France. It's a passionate well-researched book about some of the great French makers many now lost to time"
