Getting smells out of suede jacket
I got a really good deal on a type A1 suede jacket off Vinted but that thing smells like it’s been in a basement for the last decade. Any tricks to getting smells like that out of suede, since washing is somewhat out of the picture?

suit for a guy that never wears suits
Jumping off the other thread - I’m also looking for a suit for occasions when the odd jacket won’t do.
I prefer a more casual approach to tailoring and would like to have that reflected. So I’m looking for something unstructured in maybe cotton (open to light wool as well) - possibly undarted. High waist trousers (13 inch +) are a must, because I have a long torso. Also it’d be practical if I can get the trousers in a separate size from the jacket. I need a bigger trouser size because of my shape.
Price wise I’m flexible (willing to save up), but for 1500+ I might as well go m2m with my local menswear guy.
I’ve tried the universal works London jacket but it didnt work for me size-wise. The style I liked a lot.

looking for linen Overshirt recs
Reacting to advice in today’s styling suggestions I’m looking for a nice somewhat relaxed, but not too long Overshirt, preferably in linen or similar. Color-wise navy or indigo would work well. Availability in Europe is a big plus.
I’ve checked out A Day’s March but it’s not really all that I think. Budget I’m thinking 250 max?

Slip-On Sneakers Vans Alternatives
Hey everyone!
I have wide feet and a high instep. This means I cannot fit into Vans Slip-Ons at all. Since wides are only available for customs (no returns!) I’m looking for an alternative.
Anyone have any recommendations? I’d prefer white/off white.

Quality on Dickies 874 Trousers
See title. How comfortable are the 874s with the 65/35 blend? Do they run hot/sweaty? Do they collect lint? Any other problems one might not be expecting?
