Hope there's puddin' in the clink...
Don't fret. Style OG stays talking about them and other sponsors. Good to see his & his vlog's growth.
Plus, he knows what he's talking about. Been following for like the last year or so.

Going to the motherland in a few days.
You know what that means....
Bespoke dress shirts and pants for the low low
I can probably get like 15 shirts and 8 pants for about $350 material and labour.
That'll have me good for my base layer at work. I can cop blazers here in the states.

It sooo expensive in the states man to get shirts and pants made. I'm actually getting a bespoke suit made and it's costing me two grand but I'm not complaining. My issue is with custom shirts that are $200-300.
My sister is getting stationed in South Korea next year so I may visit her. I heard that there are tailors there and you can get shirting for cheap which I may indulge in. Please post your results!
If you’re in South Korea see if there are any Hong Kong based tailors there. There’s a tailor row in HK modelled after Saville Row in London. The quality and craftsmanship is top notch and being that HK was a former British colony, the styling is very British.
I know in NYC there are some businesses that take measurements en masse and then have the tailors in HK make it. They usually service Wall Streeters or so. They’ll come to your company with fabric and essentially line people up to get measured.
I’ll be getting my clothes made in Lagos. Nigeria has a rich culture of bespoke clothes especially for cultural events. There are also tailors that specialize in business wears but with that British/European flair.
My issue with the US is the lack of a good middle ground for bespoke clothes. You have Chinese tailors that have good craftsmanship, but don’t have the fashion eye. There’s that language barrier as well.
Upmarket bespoke clothes in my area is targeted towards lobbyists, lawyers, diplomats and the like. Prices are eye watering since there isn’t a large enough demand to compress prices.
I’ll post my results when I return.

Just copped a BR Italian Melton Car Coat for 65% off
A tweed. Goes perfectly with work and casual.
Should be here this week.
EDIT: Received but they sent me the wrong size. Went to switch out and my size is gone!
Maybe a sign that I don't need it.
