Best I've ever seen...
30 Euros a pop!
Contre-Temps, 93 Rue du Bac, Paris.
A nice old geezer runs the shop too...
20 & 18 mm only. Mainly plain, but some stripes & they're stripes you'll see nowhere else. Not regimentals, but their own combinations. No idea who makes them for them, but they outshine Smart Turnout & J. Press by far. Really top of the range kit. Makes all the rest like Central Watch & RTL look like real tat.
And so they should for the price.
So many Upper-Class East-Coast Americans in Paris though... But none of them are "Trads". They dress in old Brooks shirts and Blazers & Cords. Old Bluchers adorn their feet... But none of them are "Trads". They lunch in Le Varenne just around the courner from where Edith Wharton lived... But none of them are "Trads"...
Horace could tell you all about them better than me.
... They're nice people.

Thanks. I thought you were referring to American expats in Paris. I wonder if expats have a distinct look? I would imagine they start looking like the natives.
Those were great threads. I've still no idea why you were banned.
