He needs to tuck his damn shirt in.These aren't jeans but perhaps the fit is right? His shirt seems a bit snug though.

He's being casual man. Gotta let loose.

Yeah he should have gone with some nice looking loafers.
By unbuttoning the bottom button, it just makes his shirt tails look reaaaally long (long shirt tails = tuck). The length of the shirt is pretty close to "gotta tuck" zone. But yeah, that illusory long shirt tail makes it look like it needs to be tucked. I'd advise against doing this (the crazy last button).
Yeah they're kinda weird to me. I think the really large looking heel (effect of contrast between the blue and brown) and the short front makes it look quite feminine?
That damn last button is driving me nuts! What is this, a blazer?

Normally, I'd agree, but the length of the shirt appears to be short enough to where it could be worn casually untucked. Personally, I don't think it looks wrong.
EDIT:
Agree with you on the bottom button creating an illusion of a longer shirt. I still think it doesn't look too long though.

I honestly didn't mean near hips, you are right lol...
Some t-shirts fit fine up there but run a bit past my crotch which makes it annoying as fuck because it looks like a mini dress or some shit lol.. I don't want to tuck that shit all the time.

I'm in my early 30's too, and all the styles here make prefect sense. I don't dress in most of it because I can't pull them off, but it's hardly weird. You can't use age as an excuse this time.
Especially since you're still young and at a fine age for everything posted here.freenudemacusers

Oh
Just go to target and get either basic merona or those mossimo tees. Simple, no fuss.

I need a fucking wardrobe.. It's non-existent bro.

Medium.
I washed most of them, I'll see if I take a pic now they probably shrunk a bit.. Maybe they are better now.

Nordstrom is having a huge pre-season sale this week, I have no clue want to look for. I'm thinking another pair of shoes and maybe a light coat?

There is a pic of me like 5 pages back wearing mossimo medium to give you an idea.
I love oversize long tshirts.

Yep, just checked... Still way too god damned long.. I'm 150 pounds too so it shouldn't be a problem to fit in them..
The bottom area length is just too damn long for keeping un-tucked.
indeed, next year I plan on buying some silent ts

Even these blue suede shoes?
lol
For me the shirt is fine, is it too long maybe but it in no where near comes close to how terrible those shoes are and the foot of those pants fitting too close and short, But I get it, its a look that's just not for me
but we all said we didn't like the shoes

Well , before you buy shit you end up not wearing (we've all done it), what kinds of things do you like, and in what colors? Build a list of yes/nos for said things to help you quickly filter though the mass of racks.
Example: I want a pair of casual pants in light grey or blue with a slight taper, but I don't want pleats, cuffs, embellishments, or a notieable weave, etc. this way you can skip shit without second guessing or aimlessly wandering with a terrified confused look in your face

I've been in the process of selling a lot of pieces of clothing I haven't worn in a while actually, so think long and hard

Have you looked into US Blanks? I'm 5'9 and their tees reach just above my crotch and have an all around great fit. Only problem is I'm having trouble finding them now.
Lol No. Generally the styles makes sense, but yeah, those shoes are bad.

Nice. If I come across them again I'll post the link.
Looking at some of the earlier pages, Some looks I wisj I could pull off
Which is why I am subscribing to this thread and the fitness one. At 5'9 175 I need to drop like 10 lbs
Obviously sans the shoes.
I liked my outfit today, I will contribute.
Armani shirt, N&F jeans.

I think that's how we all swing. I guess I'm a little bit more hipster sometimes but why is the first thing in the OP that professor badass guy? Do any of us even care about him or want to dress like him? It sends the wrong message to people who see this thread.

It's no worse than the word manshion, which makes us all look like idiots.

A lot of those looks you posted really aren't that difficult to emulate.
Seems like you like khaki and light blue (which is a great, classic color combo). Those are two colors that are very easy to find and generally available with affordable brands, particularly at this time of year. Just keep an eye on how your clothes fit, that's the key to making those outfits look the way they do.
Also, continue with your weight loss. It goes without saying but obviously that's going to make your outfits look even better, not to mention the confidence boost you'll receive (which sometimes is all it takes).
Pindot ties + plaid shirts are one of my go-to combos. I always get compliments when I wear those together.
I like tie bars, but I think more so for the actual purpose they serve, and less the look. I hate it when my tie flops around.

I recently grabbed some tan pants on a whim. Love them to death. Fit slim, work with many different shirts. Never thought I would be this into style (and trying to be stylish) in high school. Pretty damn fun.
I saw some maroon dress type pants, things were beautiful. Too expensive though. Been looking for cheaper options. Any?

Sounds all good.
What about clothing care.
I generally just sort by color etc. and throw stuff in the wash.
If I were to start buying stuff I really like that are moderately pricey I may want to rethink that. What do you guys usually do?

Get a drying rack.
if i had thick hair, i'd immediately get it cut like that.
Bam Bam Baklava

Yeah my hair isn't getting any thicker these days, and at a young age too. I don't know how much longer I can pull of some of these more lavish styles.
If you see a skilled stylist though they can always help you get the most of what you got. Or you can always cut it yourself, I saw a guy at the gym yesterday with the haircut of my dreams...it was like a work of art. I asked him where he got it cut and he says he does it himself. It seemed nuts at first but who knows your hair and your head better than yourself right?

Nah, they shoot higher than the rest of what he is wearing my a large margin. Like wearing a French cuff shirt with shorts (though not quite that bad). Blue oxfords or loafers in a more casual fabric or shape would look better.
