Denim Bruin 2013
I had a great time last night at the first event of Denim Bruin, hosted by Levi’s Vintage Clothing.

Over the past few years, dozens of “made-to-measure” men’s clothing websites have appeared, none more ubiquitous than the MTM shirt. These vary from sketchy to pricey, with many points in between. I’ve slowly been trying some of these guys out, with mixed results. I won’t try to reinvent the wheel here but I thought I’d […]
