Anyone know who makes the shoes for Charles Tyrwhitt?
Do they make their own? Or do they relabel someone else's? I picked up these suede chukkas but the quality seems questionable compared to the usual suspects (AE, meermin, etc). They don't even seem to specify whether they are goodyear welted or not. Anyone know if there's more info out there?

Is $150 a good price for a wool overcoat?
I'm new to eBay shopping, found this one that looks pretty good, but should I wait to find a better deal?

Allen Edmonds loafer sizing
I'm shopping for my first pair of loafers. I typically wear shoe size 11.5. The AE salesperson measured my foot via Brannock and it showed 12.
I tried on some Randolphs and my normal size felt very loose, so I landed on size 11D. They fit very snug (but not painful) and there's no heel slippage at all.
I took them home and am wearing them in the house to make sure they're right. I'm noticing my pinky toe feels a little cramped. It's making full contact with the side of the shoe. When I stand, the leather flexes out over the welt a bit. Is this expected or does it sound like they're too small?

Stylish ways to bring lunch to work?
I want to start bringing my own lunch to work to save money, but my messenger bag isn't big enough to fit bulky tupperware. I'd rather not wear a backpack to work if I can help it. I commute via bus/train. Any ideas how I can bring my lunch without killing my fashion vibe? I suppose budget would be $100-400 but ideally on the low end if it's really just a lunchbox or something. Thanks!
