What size t-shirt does Haraki San wear? And could someone provide an address to ship said t-shirt to?

[Giles]

He wears L in IH.

You could send it to us in Gosport.  He will be here in 5 weeks.

[mikebarhoot]

Will do. And thanks Sir!

Need some black shoes to wear with my wedding suit. Any recommendations please.
£200ish

Also is it acceptable to wear boots with a suit? Obviously not big chunky ones. But maybe a Chelsea???

What's the occasion? For formal shoes i'd go with a balmoral captoe. If informal then I suppose chelseas could work but i'd go with a blucher if the latter. Can't think of any good brands in your range. With dress shoes I tend to spend more to get better quality and that tends to surpass the £200 range.

I need to set up a bank account in US.  I have a company and an EIN and all that.  I know that I will physically have to visit to actually open the account.  Does anyone know anyone at a bank that would be able to help me?  I wnt to fly in with all the paperwork and data I need, get it sorted and fly back out again.  Location is not particularly important.

Sorry for my delay, I was on a crazy job. If you don't have it sorted out I can help.

Not sure they anything in the £200 range though. I'd consider them a mid-tier brand. Cheaney perhaps?

I doubt it would make much difference. The one pair of mine that I cuff, have been cuffed for over three years. They just hang in my closet from June to September.

In the sales thread, where forum members are selling items, what does bump mean??

It means they're reviving the thread by 'bumping' it so it doesn't get buried

How many yards of selvedge denim (width = 30 inches) do I need for a short sleeve denim shirt? I am 5'8, 150 lbs.

Thanks!

[Chris]

I'd estimate you could do it with 2.5 to 3 yards, but I'd get 4, just to have more margin of error.

That said, I've never made a shirt, so I'm not an expert.

Great resource, thanks!

1. The cost of shipping is more than the cost of the denim
2. I wouldn't know what to do with an extra yard of denim.

Hence, I wanted to be as exact as possible. That said, I will err on the side of shipping more. Thanks!
