oooh sammy - I'm worried now.
I have two pair of those in tan and black.
I agree that the Lobb RTW now are very good but also agree that they used to be awful.

I quite like Will Boehlke, even if I don't share all his opinions, he strikes me as a gentleman. His wares in the webshop are ludicrously priced though, as is the wont of the American capitalist mindset.
The worrying thing is I'm amazed he spends so much time and money on clothes and yet has so much that either doesn't fit or is unsuitable for his build. I know he has lost weight recently, but the photo on today's post has a jacket too big in the shoulders and boxy everywhere else and the trousers are getting on for Oxford bags. A lot of the trousers Will wears lack shape and all of them are bespoke/mtm.
He may have a crazy world he inhabits, of 1930s glamour seen through the eyes of L. Fellows, but he's a decent enough chap as far as I can tell.
Will is demented.
American. He is a nobody.
A v-neck pullover should only be worn with a tie?
Eh..?
That's a new one on me..
Oh.....Agnelli did it, that explains it....if Agnelli did it...well...
Will needs to start drinking....heavily.
I didnt know that Boekly was such an Igent - he even beats Lord Crompton
At least he pays for his togs though. Simon Camptown is in a much crazier world.
I have always liked Will from the start when he joined AAAC in med 2004. Plenty of igent types want to live in `Will's world', and they do. Nothing wrong with Will making money off his site, we all have to make a dollar somehow. Will is a clothing purist, but he always struck me as very low key and down-to-earth when he first joined AAAC, and l still think he does keep a good head that isn't too large like some unbearable types.
IMHO the respective strap-lines on the 2 web sites tell you all you need to know:
Permanent Style: "The World Leader on bespoke, craft and luxury"
A Suitable Wardrobe: "For the Tailored Man"
