colors that actually do go better w/ black shoes than brown.
It seems to me that a few color combinations (e.g., red-on-black/grey glen plaid) require black shoes. In fact, the British Army notwithstanding, I'm hardly ever comfortable with red-***-brown in any of its permutations. Pink and brown, too, seem a bit of a stretch.- kidkim2

Do manufacturer trees prevent creasing more effectively?
On every measure (save appearance) a crumpled-up sports page is superior to any shoe tree (including bespoke at $400 a pop).- kidkim2

What is your opinion of this Corneliani Sport Coat?
A sportcoat so conservative that it could almost be orphaned from a two piece suit. Almost any slacks will go with this jacket. If gray, they should be either a good deal lighter or somewhat darker. Either way, appropriate for academic or casual business wear (not, IMHO, for investment banker...- kidkim2

Pocket Squares
IMHO, silk pocket squares should always have some "puff." (Points can peek out, if you like, from behind the puff.) For a rich apearance, do not unfold the square all the way before puffing. In other words, work with a double thickness of silk. Go ahead and twist the square. Just be sure to...- kidkim2

Tie solutions
Both of my rotating Sharper Image racks have been operating flawlessly, fully loaded, for years. Are you sure yours is properly mounted (e.g., level)? If so, I would return the faulty item to one of the B&M Sharper Image stores. (There's one on Burlingame Avenue here in the mid-SF Peninsula.)- kidkim2

New York "clubby" stores
Is it me, or do posts on shopping-related topics often seem to be imbued with resentment toward the implied dress code? In other words, am I the only person who likes to dress up to go shopping? After all, what better place is there to show off one's duds than a haberdashery? And is it any...- kidkim2

"to catch a thief"
STYLESTUDENT-- Thanks for the reply--and the highly informative link. An Alpine. I certainly should have known, since the first automobile I ever owned was a. . . Sunbeam Alpine. Not this model, more's the pity. Rather, the "streamlined," boxy little thing with fins--about as ugly as...- kidkim2

Ebay strategies
My apologies if you've heard this rant of mine before. But I'd greatly appreciate a comment from anyone who knows about the inner workings of eBay. Why don't they. . . prolong the auction as long as bids of a certain size are being made with an approved frequency? For example, a garment is...- kidkim2
