The Marine Corps solidified my love for olive drab. I recently purchased a teal double breasted sportscoat, that surprising goes with everything from brown to black to navy to tan. I'm wearing the sportscoat in my profile picture. I believe I was wearing tan trousers, judging by the color of the lapel pin.
Good evening Mark as always your combos are very impressive...my 2 cents...4 Christmas dinner i had on: 1. Brown corduroy slacks 2.green/white pinstripe shirt 3.dark green sweater vest 4.green poka dot bow tie 5.my wife prepared a wonderful meal...smile 6..my socks were lime/green 7 ENJOY THE HOLIDAYS
@@markchodotcom good morning Mark....my wife claims she is not crazy about cooking..my response has always been..." how come you are so good at it"???..after 40plus years she can't give a good answer...Mark enjoy your day....
Thanks for another great video! As I was thinking about colour combos, you would pull the same colour just after I thought it about 75% of the time :). I also am liking greens more and more, and recently picked up a pair of rich green corduroy trousers for this winter, to go with a more pale green cashmere v-neck I already owned, and a sage linen cotton button up shirt. Somewhat similar to the final outfit you showed.
Love the content here. Two questions. Most of your formal products off the rack are selling at price points that would easily allow made to measure with high quality cloths - what is the selling point? Also, for casual garments would be great to see a discussion of what colors work well for skin tone and hair color. Lots of combinations look great on a table - but look awful on the wrong template.
Hi Trevor, sorry for the delayed reply. On your first point regarding off the rack suiting there are a few things we can eleborate on. The quality of fabrics we use for our suiting are from some the best mills around the world, our buyers go out of their way to visit mills or fabric fairs to find new and interesting cloths for our range. Some of which are only available as custom commissions and thus wont even be available for ordinary MTM! the biggest difference in MTM versus a RTW suit will be the custom fit/modified pattern that is created for you, for some guys this makes a huge difference for others the off the rack fits great with small tweaks! theres also a consideration on lead time, MTM suits take time to make and can be 2-3 months depending on the maker. RTW suiting is much quicker and can be fixed up for you in a few days. There are Pros and Cons to both RTW and MTM. On your second point, that is a great suggestion. Perhaps later on we can involve some of our NYC colleagues in videos to illustrate some examples. Anyway thank you for your comment, and we hope this helps clear some of your curiosities.
The shawl collar lambswool cardigans look very, very much like William Lockie's. Like, suspiciously similar.

Was really surprised to see the polos. I don't believe they appeared in the new arrivals section.
