Zal ;( Comments - Answer Overflow

Not extremely often. I'd say a few times a year. I plan on gradually leaning into more prep clothing, so it might be worth the investment eventually. But we're also going into summertime and our summers are very hot and humid. So perhaps I'll focus on sneakers, get at least one very nice pair of dress shoes, and then some other more lightweight shoes like espadrilles or something.

Need to overhaul my shoe wardrobe

I have a pair of Target dress shoes that are a size too small. Definitely something I could stand to invest in. Should I take a quality or quantity approach? For $300 I could get, like, 1 new pair of meermins or something, or 2 pairs of secondhand Allen Edmonds on eBay

question about loafer sizing

Gotcha. The nearest AE store to me is a bit far. Might just have to risk it on the 13D and see how it goes. Or get something with laces instead. I'll FIO. Thanks for the help

question about loafer sizing

Hmm. Alright so probably gotta shoot for the 11.5 range. Might just buy a trashed pair on eBay for cheap to test the sizing

question about fits on dress shirts

I got 17 following your guide above, and 17 from getting measured at a men's wearhouse the other day. I feel pretty confident in that number now. Thanks

extremely bad razor burn, how to avoid it?

with the grain, then sometimes when I need a super clean shave I'll go against. I use shave gel from a can, and this shave was a safety razor, normally I use a Harry's cartridge razor

I could try that. Just use the quantities listed on the container of oxiclean, or do I wanna do a higher amount of the cleaner
