    HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

    It was getting a bit colder so I brought out a tweed jacket and RMs. Could maybe do a bit better i think?

    Im looking for suggestions for a good Brisbane weather jacket or similar. MJ bales good stuff is $649 and I can go to a tailorontheroad for $800. I was thinking 2nd hand for best bang for the buck but I don't know where the good stuff is. When i went and got sized by MJ Bale they said I was a...

    As it is getting colder, I'm looking for something good to wear over my business casual outfit. I was thinking of a coat or a blazer or something. What do people recommend that is good? and would it be worth going 2nd hand to get better value for money? From my research blazers that are 100%...

    Dress shoes and boots that support insoles?

    Hi All, I want to up my shoe game and get some good shoes, I already have a pair of RM Williams Chelsea boots and am looking at other boots like the Red Wing Iron Ranger. As for dress shoes, I am looking at Crockett and Jones or loakes 1880 range for a pair of oxfords. My issue is due to my...

    For business pants/chinos, what are some good brands to look at that I can get in Brisbane? I'm thinking of something a bit better than Uniqlo. Also is there a thread somewhere on best menswear stores in each city/state?

    Finally got myself a pair of RM Williams comfort craftman (in Black), now to check out this thread and the wider forum for styling inspo. I have seen red wing boots which look interesting, for those who have used them which models are the ones to look for and are they worth the money?

    I have checked out DJs and while they had loakes they didn't have any of the made in the UK range, which from my research and what I have read is the only worth it from loakes. I have tried Mitchael Olgive and tried on some lovely suede oxfords from carvali (I think that is how its spelled?)...

    As Brisbane doesn't seem to have decent shoes except for RMs. where do I find good shoes (oxfords) that I can try on without going to Sydney or Melbourne?

    picked up my custom shirt from Mitchel Olgive today, it fits great. Richard and his team provide excellent service.

    I'm mainly trying to upgrade from rivers grade stuff. 90% of my jackets, flannel, and hoodies are rivers as are some of my jeans and shorts. and most casual t-shirts are ones that have a print on them from ones I collected from shows and got given over the years. So to answer your question...

    What is the best way to learn about higher-end fashion? I'm trying to rebuild my wardrobe from scratch and I'm wondering what the best way to go about it? Op shops? or something else?

    Wardrobe overhaul- where to start? (AU)

    The only thing I worry about is foot support. if you have a flat foot and pronation can that be accommodated?

    Wardrobe overhaul- where to start? (AU)

    Yeah, I checked the Myer in the Bris conservative business dress and they didn't stock the 1880 range or any English-made shoes. But if I'm going to spend $650 on shoes, why not spend $100 more and get Crocket and Jones?

    Wardrobe overhaul- where to start? (AU)

    I have heard of loakes 1880 range. I think Myer or DJ's stock them? As for stores, would sticking to DJs be best, or is online the way to go? In terms of aesthetics, I'm more of a European-style fan of menswear.

    It does indeed! and your comment about shoes is 100% correct. A lot of research ahead I think! Thanks for the advice.
