You're a busy person, and taking time out to shop in a brick and mortar store for clothes is a hassle. Why bother when you can buy great-looking clothes online, custom tailored to your exact measurements, at prices better than you'll find off the rack? Last week we asked you which online clothing shops you trusted for quality clothing, great prices, and a perfect fit. We rounded up your nominations and then took a look at the top five online custom clothing stores and put them to a vote. Now we're back to highlight the winner—and how the contest played out.

We'd be remiss if we didn't mention the efforts that some of the contenders this week went to in order to secure victory. Many mentioned the poll in their social media channels, and encouraged their customers, friends, even their employees to vote. When it came down to the wire, the contest was between two great retailers: Black Lapel and Indochino. Indochino secured the victory, but that victory was at least in part due to their offer to give away a free custom suit to anyone who voted and then shared their post. We're not saying that should change anything, but it should be noted.

As for the standings, voting was tight between Indochino and Black Lapel all weekend. Black Lapel held an early lead, and on Monday the two were virtually tied for the top spot. Then late in the day, Indochino pulled ahead and took the prize with 59% of the votes cast, with Black Lapel taking second place with 29%. Way back in third place, Blank Label reeled in over 5% of the votes cast, and right behind it in fourth was Modern Tailor with 3.5% of the overall vote. Sliding into fifth place by only 2 votes was women's custom clothier eShakti, which reeled in 3.46% of the vote.

The Hive Five is based on reader nominations. As with most Hive Five posts, if your favorite was left out, it's not because we hate it—it's because it didn't get the nominations required in the call for contenders post to make the top five. We understand it's a bit of a popularity contest, but if you have a favorite, we want to hear about it. Have a suggestion for the Hive Five? Send us an email at tips+hivefive@lifehacker.com!

Shopping for clothes doesn't have to be a pain—there are plenty of online stores that will not only offer you a bargain when you buy clothes from them, but they'll also tailor and customize those clothes to fit. In some cases, the discount grows as you buy more, like dress shirts, skirts, or ties. So this week we want to know if you've been shopping at any of these online stores, and which ones you think are the best.

Shopping for clothes in brick and mortar stores is so 20th century. These days, you can not only have your clothes delivered to your door, you can have them tailored so they fit like a glove when you take them out of the box, and save money in the process. Let us know which online discount clothier you think is the best in the comments below!

In the New York Times' recent article on the mystery of why laptops require special scanning procedures on planes (they're mostly scanned to give us the illusion of security, described as "security theater"), the author briefly mentions security expert Bruce Schneier's travel belt:

I called Bruce Schneier, the security chief for British Telecom and a long-time security expert with hundreds of thousands of miles of airline travel under his belt (a belt that, he noted with pride, never beeps in security because he's chosen it carefully).

Of course, Schneier's not alone; we all have a special outfit we wear when we have to deal with the TSA. I, for one, would love a good belt that doesn't require me to disrobe when I'm going through security, and I'm curious: What's your travel-friendly outfit consist of? Photo by Bill Alldredge.

Sometimes, if I haven't done laundry in awhile, using my hamper to transport clothes to the laundry room isn't ideal since it'll contain a few loads. Redditor RedSquaree shows us how to move those clothes without dropping them everywhere.

Just lay a pair of pants—preferably one that's going that particular load—and roll up the other clothes, as shown above. You can then carry it with one arm, without dropping socks and other items of clothes along the trail Hansel and Gretel style. You could use a towel or sheet too, but if your towels are in their own separate load—which they should be—this trick works pretty well. Check out the full step-by-step to the right, or hit the link below to read more, and while you're at it, check out our favorite tips for speeding up laundry too.
