It’s a fact that is unchangeable and always will be. i To dress well does not mean atlall to wear foppish clothes of extreme style. It means a certain regard for careful tailoring, for positive style, for exactness in small-details, for taste in fabric and pattern. We recommend and sell Society Brand Clothes because they have long been the choice of men of diseriminating taste. - They satisfy us only because we are convinced they will satisfy you.
