  Look up one maker in the Quartermaster ledger: grade S to D and why, how it is built, where it is made, how its off-price stock behaves (mainline or made for outlets) and how to tell, full-price ranges, and what to check before buying. Use when someone asks whether a menswear brand is any good or still good, e.g. "Is Allen Edmonds still good?" or "Are Charles Tyrwhitt shirts worth it?". Accepts loose spellings.

• 2026-10-08quartermaster_check_piecechangeddescription, output schema
  before

  Judge one piece before someone pays for it. Use when someone asks "is this worth it?", "is this a good deal?" or "should I buy this?", or pastes a clothing or shoe listing with a price, including Nordstrom Rack, outlet, eBay and Grailed finds. Give the maker, the category and the price, plus where it is sold and, if known, the compare-at price, fiber and build from the listing. Returns a verdict (Worth it, Worth it if the tag checks out, Only at a lower price, Skip it, Pay less), the maker's grade, the fair price band for that kind of seller, what to check on the tag, cost per wear, and better-value makers in the same category. Grades and price bands checked September 2026.

  Judge one piece of menswear before someone pays for it. Use when someone asks whether a piece of men's clothing or a pair of men's shoes is worth it ("is this worth it?", "is this a good deal?", "should I buy this?"), or pastes a men's clothing or shoe listing with a price, including Nordstrom Rack, outlet, eBay and Grailed finds. Give the maker, the category and the price, plus where it is sold and, if known, the compare-at price, fiber and build from the listing. Returns a verdict (Worth it, Worth it if the tag checks out, Only at a lower price, Skip it, Pay less, or Not enough to judge when the ledger does not grade the maker for that category and the listing gives no fiber or build that the ledger can score), the maker's grade, the fair price band for that kind of seller, what to check on the tag, cost per wear, and graded makers in the same category (same grade or better when the maker is graded). Limits: menswear only; prices are US dollars from the QuarterMaster ledger of 53 makers, checked September 2026, not live store prices; no stock, size or delivery checks; no orders.

• 2026-10-08quartermaster_plan_outfitchangeddescription
  before

  Prescribe a complete outfit for an occasion within a budget. Every piece gets the best-graded maker that fits the money at a real price (full price or Nordstrom Rack), a second choice, and what to check at the fitting, plus cloth, cut and tag advice. Makers come only from the Quartermaster ledger, checked September 2026. Use after the fitting questions, or straight away when someone gives the occasion and the money ("wedding in October, $800, what do I get?").

  Prescribe a complete men's outfit for an occasion within a budget. Each piece gets the best-graded maker that fits the money at a ledger starting price (full price or Nordstrom Rack), a second choice, and what to check at the fitting, plus cloth, cut and tag advice. If nothing graded fits the money for a piece, that piece comes back with no maker. If nothing fits at all, the result gives the lowest budget that fills every graded piece. Makers come only from the QuarterMaster ledger. Use after the fitting questions, or straight away when someone gives the occasion and the money for a man's outfit ("wedding in October, $800, what do I get?"). Limits: menswear only; prices are US dollars from the QuarterMaster ledger of 53 makers, checked September 2026, not live store prices; no stock, size or delivery checks; no orders.

• 2026-10-08quartermaster_start_fittingchangeddescription
  before

  Start a guided fitting with the Quartermaster, an independent menswear concierge. Use when someone asks what to wear or what to buy for an occasion: "what should I wear to my friend's wedding", a work dinner, a first date, a rainy weekend away, coffee with friends, or "I have nothing to wear". Returns the tailor's questions in order, the occasions he dresses for, and the full kit each impression calls for, so the person can compare. The answers are the inputs to quartermaster_plan_outfit.
