      Thanks, yes shoe trees is a must for me. It’s more about furniture etc to store them.

        If you have underfloor heating you will need to raise them off the floor.

          I do Neph, good advice. I currently tend to get a closet and some shelves and place the shoes there. I should have sticked to sneakers, engineers take up too much space  😃 😢

            IKEA do a good shoe storage system that O find suitable for my Engineers. It’s part of the PAX system. Granted, they take up a lot a space but this helps a lot.

              Oh I didn’t know. We have closets from IKEA (Pax) without doors to achieve the walk in closet style. I have to look for these then. Thanks!

                  The shirt on the bottom is from Soso Bros.and as you can see the sleeves were attached incorrectly. They’re making me a new shirt,but I’m in a quandary as to what to do with this one. Have the sleeves reattached correctly,is that even doable? Take the sleeves off make a vest. Suggestions?

                    So the left sleeve was attached to the right arm hole and visa versa?  If so, yes, a tailor should be able to take them off and reattach….

                        I kind of thought that they just attached the sleeve backwards or rotated it. Can’t believe it wasn’t caught in QC.  How would you know if they switched the sleeves?

                          Also that is weird it made it passed QC. I have seen a few of those shirts on Instagram. Look pretty cool

                              Just try and imagine how the sleeve would look if it was sewn into the other armhole.  I'm sure that is what has happened…...

                                Yeah, G I think is spot-on. If both sleeves are fekked, they were simply attached to the wrong arm holes, which is resolvable via tailoring. If one sleeve is fekked, then they attached the wrong sleeve to one side and repair is a bit more difficult because the sleeve would have to be rebuilt.

                                At least that's what I'm assuming–I've never made a shirt so I could be off.

                                Think it, be it.

                                    So I'm hooked…sleeves just flipped position or the wrong sleeve altogether?

                                      The consensus is that the sleeves are switched. I sent Soso Bros. the picture and they just said we're making you a new shirt,didn't tell me what they thought went wrong.

                                        definitely look switched. I agree it's amazing that it passed qc from any company. I'd even be amazed if I saw a mixup like that on a rack at HM or Forever 21 or something. If they're making and sending you a new one and letting you keep it, I'd either cut the sleeves off and vest it like you said, or cut the sleeves halfway and cuff a couple times to get a good short sleeve version.

                                          The short sleeve option is something I hadn't thought of and may be the way to go. I don't think I'd need to switch them to accomplish that.

                                            That is a great idea.

                                            I have had this happen to me once before, but on one sleeve (they attached two right sleeves to the shirt). It was a pretty expensive Zegna shirt, too. I wouldn't read too much into it if they're making it right. QC processes are great, but even with rigorous ones in place, people are fallible.

                                            BTW–cool shirt, @Jett129

                                            Think it, be it.
