Great seeing the Hill School bsnner on the right – I’m a graduate. Keep it up with the site, it’s one of my favorites!

Hey! I was about to write something similar over on my site … I guess that great minds think alike.

About quality clothes, I just purchased a new pair of dress cowboy boots. Yes, I spent nearly $500 on them but, if they last like my last pair did, I won’t need to replace them for at least 16-18 years (and then only if something major changes … like my shoe size). Buy quality, take care, and your clothes can last as long as you do!

Great article Antonio.

Here is another suggestion I don’t think has been mention yet.

On a dinner suit I recently purchased there was a tag attached that suggested once a month or so hanging the suit in a shady area where there is a slight breeze.

The breeze supposedly makes it unfriendly for the bugs to make a home in the garments.

I have tried this on some of my older suits & it seems to work for them well. It also gets rid of the musty or camphor odours.

Antonio, my question refers to your first installment of this series. What do you consider a “collared, button-up sport shirt.” I’m not quite sure what you would designate as a “sport shirt” rather than just a dress shirt. If you could link to a picture that would be great.

Love these articles. Keep up the good work!
