So far suitsupply is spot on for me in sizing

I have some discoloration in a pair of pretty expensive dress shoes. Any advice on the steps to take to fix this? Redye? Anyone have experience with that?

 

[brovsko]

@vintageapparel  - you can try conditioning the shoes with saphir renovateur or renomat and then applying a good cream polish such as saphir or collonil. after a few polishes, it shouldn't be visible. alternatively, you can take them to a shop that does leather refinishing and have the shoes re-dyed. I know ToBox Shoes in Philadelphia does this if you're in the area.

What would y'all recommend as a suit color, if I currently only own navy? I am graduating in the spring and want to get something from SS that is a bit nicer that I can take with me as I begin a full time career. I can hit up the SS store here in Chicago, so I'm assuming they'll have the full array of offerings.

I would suggest a grey suit since you only have a navy one.

Grey is very versatile. It can be worn with almost any color.

Prep picture from the wedding.. Our venue had a rustic industrial chic vibe in the heart of Dumbo Brooklyn, so we decided the typical black tie look wouldn't look as good. We tried to keep it 'young and fly' and our guests dressed so well. Turned out nicely!

A shot during our ceromony..

Need to get the sleeves shortened a tad bit on my linen blazer, non func. buttons. This shouldn't be a complicated procedure right? Also, since I've never had this done what would be an appropriate expected price range ?

Shortening the sleeves regardless of functional/nonfunctional buttons can be a bit pricy as the tailor will argue that the functions still have to be moved up. I've paid for anything between $35-50 for this.
It depends if you are going to a local alterations with a trusted Asian lady or a more professional European tailor.
