Y'all dress sharp... a Rolex has a way of stepping up even my jeans and t-shirt gear.

Like Andrew, I rarely wear a suit as well... but since I'm going to have to do it from time to time, I decided to pick up a couple of Zoot Suits from a local tailor here in SF...

Does this count? Sorry, couldn't resist.

We now resume your regularly scheduled programming...

Blown Wide Open · 19 February 2007, 08:23 AM

I am a big fan of last years Boss for the price. I own one Valentino, 2 Joseph Abouds, 1 Burberry.

The rest of my suits are Ralph Lauren and a mixture of no namers with great drape and 140s wool.

It is more in the tailoring and in the Shoes imo...Now, you want to have a real conversation about shoes...then we can go on for a while.

I'm gonna guess it's the same as a dry standpipe inlet... mebbe what they call them in England or even the east coast...

Kris · 19 February 2007, 08:41 AM

I love these pi$$ing contests

..........so I'll bite.................

We have a business casual atmosphere in my office. I wear my SD with the following on a regular work-week;

- black Calvin Klein khaki's.
- Solid-coloured Golf-T shirt of brands such as R. Lauren Polo or Lacoste.
- Black Doc-Martin shoes.

On other days, a regular collared Polo-T'shirt with Gap jeans and again, my black-Doc Martin's or even running shoes.

astcell · 19 February 2007, 12:10 PM

Dry standpipe inlet...now I a even more confused. Is an inlet a vent? Dry meaning air, and maybe wet meaning water? A dry riser inlet may mean air is rising in?

It's like those zig-zag markings on the road. They look important but I have no idea what they mean! In the US we are taught when in doubt to hug the lines. That could be awful.

I think those zig-zag markings are used mainly in Britain. They warn the motorist of an approaching pedestrian crossing....and hence to slow down.

I'm unsure of the context. a dry riser inlet (on the side of a building) might be where the local FD hooks up with their pumpers to feed water to the interior of the building. a wet one being linked to the sprinkler system etc. inlet here would mean a way to connect and flow water into the system... you know the opposite of an outlet?

nice hijack by the way...

I was staring at the zig zag so much I did not even see the pedestrian crossing until you just pointed it out! Wow next thing you'll be telling me this is not a one way road and they DO drive on the wrong side!

It's NOT a one way road, and they do drive on the LEFT side....same as we do, tosser!!

Gedanken · 19 February 2007, 05:48 PM

Herringbone and houndstooth were two that never quite suited my tastes, I'm afraid. The grey nailhead's about as far as i depart from chalk stripes.

A while ago I did work in a casual environment, and turning up in bermudas and boat shoes wasn't a bad way to go, but a suit's a no-brainer when it's 7.30 in the morning, you haven't had your fifth cup of coffee yet and there's lots of work to think about.

Otis · 19 February 2007, 09:17 PM

You've got a good point there.
I'm trying to slow down on the coffee.... which means I end up with a head-ache and wearing yesterdays jeans
