    I've already decided to buy a bespoke suit, so you can ram your mass produced off the peg Armani rag..............

      Armani suits are probably made in some Chinese sweat shop anyway.
      I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.

          Tried Armani one stomach was no happy, Armani is for Italian stick insects. Hugo Boss is not any better. Paul Smith is good I like the colour and the shirts fit pretty good too but can age quickly.

              Now when it comes to shoes only one brand will do, Russell and Bromley, keep it simple. No fancy pattern and the client will hear you coming before they see you. Their shoes are a lot better than their website, honest.

                If you're ever in NL I'd recommend you get a pair of Van Bommels Not cheap, but very well made and as good as indestructible.

                    One of the best pair of shoes I've ever owned were Paul Smith. They were bought from the boutique shop on Floral Street. Completely different quality and style to the mass produced crap you see in the department stores.

                    I like Boateng for suits, but again, bespoke and at his prices they're 'special' treats and not work wear.

                      Never been to the boutique shop, it may be worth a visit though.

                      Pretty much in the same vein as Deisel Style Lab then? (i.e higher quality and finished to perfection?)
