On JackThreads that just means that you don't have to buy a size up or size down. You'll have to do some Internet research to find out if the brand goes for a slim, tailored, or regular look.

You're probably going to want to size down with most stuff on JT. Everything I've seen from them fits like a balloon.

cool thanks, i'll check them out. currently considering this cardigan, just don't know how warm linen is http://www.ln-cc.com/bin/venda?bsre...ht&ivref=ann0108024wht&att1=48+-+Medium&qty=1
Those look awesome. Where'd you get them?Men of men, I bought these shoes long ago and want to now wear them. Unfortunately I bought is .5 size too small, is there a method of making them bigger or stretching them without wearing them?
Linen is typically a spring/summer fabric.

What is your opinion on this blazer:

Texture looks nice, what's the sleeve button situation?

If you can return, check with a tailor. Depending on where the extended sleeve attaches to the main one, shouldn't be too tricky. The sleeve buttonholes look decorative, at least.
I know those sleeve feels, I'm 5'9" and a 48eu, which staff inc seems to hate with their weird open sleeve buttons ;(

Uuuuh <3. I got these in full "leather". Like the first shoes I got actual comments and compliments on. Too bad they looked like shit after half a year. The leather is fake and apparently can not be cleaned of stains. The seams unravel all over the place. And despite me using shoetrees on all my trainers, they lost shape. Still love them though. These are mine

So there's a Korean company selling clothing through Amazon called Doublju. Some of the shirts look awesome. Anyone have any experience with shirts from this company? Sizes run super small so most of the reviews say to order a size or two larger. Very reasonable prices if the quality is even close to decent (as long as it is fulfilled by Amazon).
Thoughts?

oh lord, hopefully a joke lol
It's a shame, because he's wearing that hat correctly, it's the proper size, and in a summer linen suit he'd look great.

Oh I meant Sat
hey guys how should pants like casual chinos fit in the thighs off the rack? i have realized all my pants look like shit on me. even if they fit in the waist, they look wider in the thighs than in the calves. there is usually this weird break\stack in the fabric at the knee when im wearing them which kind of influences how they look from the knee down making them appear sucked in compared to the thighs. they never flow smoothly\consistently like this:
instead they appear to taper in drastically below the knee. this is regardless of if its slim fit or straight leg. i used to think meant slim all the way from the thigh down but apparently its usually only the calf area that's slimmed? which makes the thighs look even bigger in contrast. i tried having the thighs in one of my slim fits slimmed by a tailor to match the legs but while it doesnt feel uncomfortable it now feels like its going to rip or something.
i usually buy based on the waist. i go as low as possible without it hurting but the thighs will still suck. or the legs. i can't tell which is the problem. the only pair that really fits a way i kind of like are my bootcut jeans but i don't like the wideness of the leg opening at the bottom but otherwise it looks straight from thigh to leg and not like a cone \|/ or like this )|( at the knees.
and im not looking for my pants to be skin tight or anything. i don't need a super slim or even slim look. i just want something normal. i wish i had some pics but i don't. i'll try and grab some when i hit some stores today.
edit: also hm. im trying to think how i can describe my problem. so with basically all my pants, if i could magically alter either the legs or the thighs to match up with the other, i'd much rather the legs size up to meet the thighs than the thighs shrink down to meet the legs. i realize i made it seem like the thighs are too big but im thinking, based on my pants and all the pants i've tried on lately trying to sort this out, the thighs are fine but only look huge because of how small the legs look but i could be completely off, i'll try to get pics.

Nice pic Alucrid, that outfit is super clean.
Definitely a joke. There's no way he's actually seriously wearing that tee with those suspenders.
You're going to have to post pictures of your problem because I read through your post twice and still can't figure out what your issue is.

Yea I live legit 5 mins from that one. But the LA one is like double the size.
Eh, F*ck it.
I have payed off all my debts, and will be getting my tax-refund soon. I was going to spend $500 on a leather duffel bag, but the ones I like are all $900+.
I'm going to treat myself for once.
What do you guys think about these two? They are my top choices. Open to any other suggestions.
I'm more leaning towards the Ghurka in chestnut.
This is a very big purcahse for me, so again; open to all input and recommendations.

Ghurka Cavalier I No. 96 - $1200 - I'll either get vintage black or vintage chestnut. Comes come in 8 other colors too.
Lotuff and Clegg Leatherworks - Small Leather Duffel - $999 - Same thing. Black or Brown/Chestnut. Also comes in a few other colors.

Yeah that first one in brown is definitely the best of the four. Great looking bag. Should last you forever and with that color it'll look good with everything.

Yeah, first one, and edging to brown too. Maybe consider something like this also?
