Remove Polo Embroidery
I’m not sure what exact rugby look you want but vintage lands end is good. I have a couple from them https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=%28vintage%2C+vtg%29+lands+end+rugby&_trksid=p4432023.m4084.l1313 https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1116800072093532191/1336700586669899877

Remove Polo Embroidery
I’ve removed embroidered logos from things and it is doable but tough. You’re likely to accidentally damage the fabric and end up with a little worn/damaged spot.

heart print boxers
Meundies does lots of patterns. I got one pair on a podcast discount a few years ago and they have held up fairly well.

Can you sew? Any shorts can be as short as you like.

Cotton ethics of Bronson MFG
I think the similar style (mil-surp and vintage workwear reproductions) but ethical would be something like Buzz Rickson https://www.selfedge.com/buzz-rickson

Yeah don’t do it for common things or it’s overwhelming. But I really wanted a specific LL bean miUSA barn coat and once I got my terms dialed in getting updates was great.

Any formality clash here?
I think the creases are, ironically, making it look a little stiffer and more formal. I think after a wash it will look even better.

Longer arms than average but thinner torso
This is where alpha sizing comes in. Buy something that fits the neck and sleeves (I’m a 16.5/35) then you can get the body tailored if necessary.

Longer arms than average but thinner torso
Many companies sell different fits. Brooks brothers for example has 5 fits that will have the same neck and sleeve length but vary by 10 inches in the chest from widest to slimmest. But the key is you need to know your measurements. The best way, is as Moses said, to measure a shirt you already own that fits well.

coats like this?
The “Burberry” is probably doing a lot of the work in terms of price. You’ll find cheaper options without the brand name.

I had a pair a few years ago that I liked at the time but their cuts run very slim to skinny and low rise. You can order now and it will take months to actually get your pants. Their customer service also sucks, it is basically impossible to return anything.

are those resoleable
Is the sole worn thru or just separating? You can reglue the sole at home with something like aquaseal, or take it to a cobbler who will likely do the same thing.

Zippers vs Buttons - Topic of the day 4/11/25
The button flies on jeans with metal shanks (riveted maybe?) are good. I have one pair of pants with sewn in buttons and they are much harder on and off.
