Agree on their suits, I own one. Also own a few shirts and 2 pairs of shoes. As far as HB shoes go, I don’t have a single negative thing to say about them, good style, good fit, don’t fall apart after 2 months.

Nice 
I like your style KarenC. You can follow me anytime.
I’m a fan of HB - tshirts fit nice, I like their shoes (with the exception of the really pointy ones), and suits aren’t so bad. Big fan of their boxer briefs.
don’t own any HB tshirts or boxer briefs, have a pair of socks though. I like HB shoe styles everyone has a different taste but for me: Ferragamos = old man shoes( can’t afford) Cole Haan = old man shoes Prada= can’t afford + slightly ghey… E. Zegna= can’t afford

Zegna= can’t afford Continuing the thread derailment: Hahaha - I love my Old Maans (Cole Haans) - got some oxfords recently that I’m LOVIN! Other than that, I roll Johnston Murphy and a lil’ Ken Cole (pretty traditional footwear for me). Boxer briefs - I go Banana Republic/Gap - did get some calvin kleins that I like a lot (my wife calls them ‘my panties’ because they’re so soft). Dress shirts: Brooks Brothers slim fits, then polo & banana republic sprinkled with the occasional random other shirt. Polos: Polo + a few Lacoste and Nike Dri-Fits Pants: Mixed bag - I’ll get these at TJ Maxx or on sale at Younkers. Store pants I like the best are probably Ralph Lauren. Jeans I go banana republic or express pretty exclusively.
Threadderailment continuity; Mercanti Fiorenti for shoes and Florsheim (DSW always has awesome deals) Boxers- Calvin Klein for going out, then a mixed bag of Polo, Gap and whever else I have. I literally havent bought underwear in over a year. Dress Shirts- HB, Bloomingdales Mens Store, Charles Twyrhitt Polos- Polo and BB Pants- Don’t really care as long as they fit well Jeans- Guess exclusively Ties- Guicci, BBros, Canali Condos- Trojies Her Pleasure.
Shoes - HB, Florsheim (have 1 pair), & aldo sh%t Boxers- CK & Tommy Hilf Dress Shirts- HB, Zara, Matinique. Polos- Polo Pants- Banana rep + a few bespokes Jeans- Mavi & Guess Ties- rarely wear, have 3 or 4 don’t remember the names Same Condos as Nupps

If you’re paying $350+ you could be doing better. If you pay MSRP then they probably rival Joseph A Bank’s inflated MSRP in the value department. Continuing the thread derailment: Dress Shoes: 5 pairs of Allen Edmonds, 1 pair of Aldens, and 1 pair of Ferragamos Boxers - All over the place Undershirts - CK v-necks Dress shirts: Brooks Brothers slim fits Polos: Lacoste mostly, a few Polos, and 1 Hugo Boss Pants/Shorts: Brooks Brothers mostly Jeans: Lucky Ties: Isaia, Polo, Brooks Brothers Suits/Sportcoats: Canalli, Brooks Brothers, Oxxford
Allen Edmond shoes are nice. Once I hit the next pay grade, the Johnston Murphy’s will start getting replaced with what Allen’s cooking up. You ever resole them bankin’, or haven’t needed to?

I’ve had the Aldens restored, but as of yet have not had to send in the AE for recrafting.

Mach 3 with a firm grip and some baloonage only.

Whoa, I’d never even think of shaving my balls with this thing, there are safer alternatives like scalpel or a samurai sword. This razor is too dangerous to go anywhere near that area but I heard people say that it’s better than Mach 3 or anything else out there, if you know how to use it and shave your face only of course…

I’m not single. I don’t have to wear cologne. But when I do, I use Dos XX
