CEGO’s Guide To Shirt Measurements

— Thu, 30th September 2010 —

[nggallery id=30]

There’s no substitute for a good tailor — a fact no one knows better than CEGO‘s Carl Goldberg. Still, the respected shirt maker knows he can’t measure every man, nor does everyone have access to a tailor of his caliber. For those unfortunate souls, Carl generously offered to divulge his time-tested measurement methods. Star contributor — and Eating Everywhere editor-in-chief — Sam Jacobs walks us through the process, which, keep in mind, you can’t do on your own.

See how it’s done after the jump…

Fall Outerwear, Smart Picks

— Wed, 29th September 2010 —

We can always count on smart, out-of-the-box ideas from Commerce With A Conscience, and its picks for autumn outerwear are no exception. Pella, Snap ‘n’ Wear, Fidelity — If you’re not familiar with these brands, CWaC makes a great case for getting to know them. Every jacket and coat on the list is American made, under $100 at retail, and what CWaC deems “socially responsible.” What’s not to love about the denim chore jacket from Pointer — Certainly not its $40 price tag.  [CWaC via Valet.]
