Hopefully you’re somewhere escaping the heat. I’m in a very small area in my apartment where it’s quite cool, as long as I don’t move a few feet in either direction. I’m about to receive the first pass of my book, where it’s laid out in pretty final form, with one last chance for edits. So I thought I’d take some questions before I settle down with that.

Longtime readers know we’ve gone into intense detail when it comes to Oxford cloth shirts and chinos (Drake’s and RRL), so we can steer clear of those topics, vital as they are.

For those new to the proceedings, just ask a question in the comment section and I’ll respond as best I can. And if you’re asking about travel please be specific about what you’re looking for—I can’t give entire city guides or itineraries, but hopefully I can point you in the right direction. And no Paris please—I addressed that here.

So ask away. This is the best forum if you want my opinion on anything—DMs and emails often end up in the digital shredder.

Thanks!
David
