Re: Ivy League style for today

They must be damn thick then. The Wigwam socks I have are probably the thickest socks I own.

I wear them high, just touching the the of the DBs. Not really high waters but (as I'm sure you can tell) I fold them up once, to help defend from the road splash that lingers on these horrible overcast winter days.

Re: Ivy League style for today

Anyone have any trouble with Wigwams "quitting" after you wear them a while?  Mine just don't seem snug enough and sometimes end up slipping down my ankles.

That's how I pictured them being worn in my head Liam, good stuff. I haven't had any problems with mine yet WM, but then I've only had them a few months.

Re: Ivy League style for today

No probs Tom.

I take a small in vintage Pendleton generally and the only modern (Assembled in Mexico) one I have fits only slightly larger. I am a 36" chest bang on.... are you sure you really need a small? They will shrink up a little in the wash after all. Might end up pretty snug on the chest?

It's hard to gauge these things when you are buying new I suppose.

Re: Ivy League style for today

Thanks, Harpo as well as others. A great compliment. The tie was made by Nickelson's of London, I think. Perfect width ties, as well. Slim not skinny. Couldn't find their website, I found a link to their website on here about a year ago. Was wearing the jacket with darker grey cuffed flannels and brown pebblegrain wingtips in case anyone was interested.

For anyone interested http://www.michelsons.com/retail-home.php?range_id=125

Michelon's, not Nickelson's. They have particularly cheesy photos of shiny ties on their website.

Love it Patrick. But what's the mystery blob on the floor?


Ville, An actual picture was what I intended but the jeans weren't properly dry yet and I had run myself short in time.

Re: Ivy League style for today

The blob remains a mystery. I will watch its future progress with considerable interest.

I should add, if you look at it closely and in a very dim light it looks like Fred Astaire with a third eye. Very iGent/reptilian.

It's giving me the fear. Don't let it out of the Giant vibrator.

It's good stuff, Harpo. But my thumbs have gone all weird and my hearts beating like a fucked clock.
