    For me this is easy. Get notch lapels on SB business suits and peak lapels on DB business suits. If you are looking at non-business suits, stay with peak lapels for DB suits but you can opt for either lapel for SB suits. It you opt for nonbusiness SBPL then be certain to get it one button.

A shoulder season one from Taylor and Lodge’s 6ply 520g. A winter flannel one (that I will soon replace) from RLPL. A completely...

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread
