i would rec the n&f weird guys but they don't really look great washed, just kind of ... old and dingy. I think Dior has some grey shitz, and acne too. I dunno, I think grey is a color that looks better prefaded etc.
so look into acne. grifoni* has some stuff on yoox, and the half-tag jeans (check the back) run tapered and slim as shit. I like em.

i never said raw lol. yeah, i don't really like raw for black, grey, etc. also not huge on the n&f cuts for me. grifoni sounds good though, i think yoox still has free shipping and with free returns it shouldn't be a hassle. thanks bro

Anyone have experience/opinions on Baldwin denim? Saw their camo trousers at Nordstrom's today and absolutely loved them. Didn't have time to try them on though.
Also, let's do that burger joint you suggested for Saturday.
Okay that outfit is freaking awesome. Love the colors. I need more purple in my wardrobe.

You're right, they are the most versatile. Definitely beeswax.

Beeswax all the way.
I found some old grey jeans today. They fit tighter* than I usually wear stuff, but I am on board with team grey.

You'll find nothing but positivity in this thread about the Allen Edmonds. Pretty much the epitome of getting what you pay for in quality/durability/look.
The only thing I'll say is that if you're patient enough/look hard enough, you can generally find them on sale for around the $180 range. I know Nordstrom's does a sale right after Christmas, and they generally feature Allen Edmonds during those. Obviously, I can't guarantee this to be the case, but if you're not in a rush it might benefit you to hang in there for a little while before pulling the trigger.

I got some Neumoks. I can't wear them every day because I heard its unhealthy to walk around with a boner all the time.
Get it if it isn't too baggy.
Folk do good cardigan work, incidentally.

my favourite local store is a Folk evangelist. Everytime I go in the manager is telling me Folk do nice stuff. It's tempting since I've been getting 10/15% discount the last few times I've went in.
I have their rain mac and a shirt. Good stuff.
I am letting my city down. I think I need to buy a peacoat, but I need to save up because I'm moving into my own place next month. Ah, priorities.

Visceir, definitely get the leather ones. They look strikingly similar to my Timberland Lost History's, which means I think they look absolutely fantastic.
Also nice outfit. Makes me want to get a peacoat. Never owned one before.

yeah i dig it, a little loose atop and slim bottom. I think the leather shoe has a better shape to it, fwiw. the sole on the suede just seems a little rough.
re: manshionmeet, so that burger place around 2 or something? someone decide on a time haha

me neither, though I've had peacoat-ish things. I'd rather have a caban coat for some reason.

Never had much reason to. I didn't really get into fashion until a few years ago and prior to that I just wore sweatshirts year round lol.
Besides, I think I'm more of a topcoat fan myself.

Halloween was a week ago.
Hey guys,
This was posted a while back ago in this thread:

I was wondering what brand that jacket is/where it's from.

Not sure of the exact jacket, but just look for grey herringbone blazers and you're bound to find something almost identical.
I searched, but couldn't find anything similar to that jacket. Maybe I am terrible at finding things online. Thanks for the description though
Thanks, they are having a -20% sale on sunday, I'll be getting them then.

How does one find a decent tailor? I'm in the awkward size where every pair of pants needs to be shortend an inch and shirts are always a bit off fitting. I have used a place in the mall out of ignorance and they do a meh job. I just don't know what to look for in a tailor.
I usually size down a bit, but it depends on which shoe you pick (there are a bunch of different lasts that sometimes suit narrow or wide feet).
I'm looking at the Strands. I normally wear a size 11, and I'm definitely not narrow. A 10.5 D might work for me. They're sold at Nordstroms, right? I might just go try on a pair.

the collar detail looks like it's from Zara, but I have one that looks really similar from Forever 21

So where online should I look for a winter coat for $100 or less? Something that can be dressed up or down?

At that price point, I think the only places would be Forever 21 or H&M. Honestly, for something like a winter coat, which needs to be well structured and durable, $100 won't get you much. The next step up is probably Uniqlo, and then maybe Jcrew or Banana.
I'd go with something versatile like a classic pea coat. Looks great with jeans without looking too fussy.
