Yeah, I have to say I was wholeheartedly against Peacoats for years, but then I lost a bunch of weight, started dressing better, and just picked one up 2 weeks ago. Got a double breasted Jones New York for 60 or 70% off (awesome deal), and I am blown away by how good it looks, and how warm they are.
I'm not very good with watches either, but I'd really like a nice leather strapped watch, preferabily in dark brown with a classic face.
Something like this:
(though this particular watch is incredibly expensive)
This isnt too bad either, it's less minimalist though.
I saw a pair of Loake brogued oxfords in a store the other day. They look real nice, but I'm afraid to find out how much they cost.

I have the red wood We Wood watch, it's a reddish brown, great casual watch. it's really smooth and super light. wouldn't pay full price though
I'd love to know if anyone in the UK can recommend any good, cheap and reliable clothing sites/stores.
Sounds stupid, but at the moment I buy almost all of my stuff from Burton - it's very reasonably priced, very well made, and particularly when it comes to work clothes (trousers, shirts and suits) it's incredibly well fitted too, for such a cheap store.

River Island and Zara are my go to shops and Uniqlo when Im near one. Burton reminds me of a young adults version of Next..dont know why but I just never go in there.
Asos for online stuff.

Gaaraz said:Nice one, thank you! Never heard of Zara (sounds like it'd be women only!) but will look out for a local one. Pretty sure there isn't a Uniqlo around here either
Asos is definitely worth a look, will check it out now - thanks!
Yeah Zara does sounds like a womens shop, I could have sworn up till maybe 2-3 years ago they only had female displays in the shop window!
I will say it is at the more expensive end of highstreet shops but I do think the quality/fit is better.
Not to mention everyone that hasnt a clue gos to bloody Topman!

I know this is going to sound incredibly stupid, but have you guys seen some of the stuff (watches, accessories) J. Crew has?

Average people wear the drabbest grey/black crap in the fall. Just bleh. I think I'm the only male wearing faded pink in the Northern Hemisphere today.

And then the non-average people wear darker stuff in winter because it's easier to find cheap warm stuff without much colorAlucrid said:

Based on these reactions, I guess GAF is hating on the military/maritime esque stuff.

I mean, MA-1 jackets are cool, but that's just a piece of rope with an anchor on it.
Not sure what Ray Bans, watches and wallets have to do with them taking a turn for the stylish. Maybe if they had some rick owens urban-goth ninja shit or something then yeah.

Yes! Add olives, dark shades of green, and violet to that as well and that's my autumn/second half wardrobe.latinlikeaviolin said:

I went back to see what a single breasted trench looks like (first I've heard of one) and it looks weird. Unless you are under 4 feet tall a regular trench in the appropriate size will look good.Thai said:

Meant that I had an old jacket salvaged and tailored, because it was bought for me way back when I was fat back in the day. Now it's great.Jake. said:

Just bought this jacket.
What do you guys think?
Fake edit: Was originally 100, got it for around 60ish.

Got it 40% off, which is really the only reason I got it. Although i honestly haven't had any problems with old navy. I have a bunch of stuff from them, due in part to my sister working there, so I got the employee discount if she bought it.
Well if you like it, that's all that matters. A lot of their clothes aren't really slim fit which is why they look like shit on me.Notrollious said:
I have a question about corduroys: is it acceptable to wear these in a business-casual work environment? I usually wear a button down shirt, tie, pea coat in this kind of weather and have a few pairs of corduroys that I never wear.

I bought that same (but slightly different) jacket from Old Navy last year for 20 bucks and after washing it a couple of times it completely changed it's fit on me and now I'm trying to give it away. Bleh. Good luck.
Anyway, it started snowing in NYC and having recently moved here from California, I completely froze my ass off this weekend. Decided to make a visit to Uniqlo's flagship store and picked up a down jacket and a wool jacket. I'm having the hardest time trying to find pics of them online though.

Any experience on what the surcharge for shipping would be from there? In the US, that is.Cosmic Bus said:
bob page said:
I would imagine so. You can always ask or, if you don't want to do that, you can wear them and see if anyone says anything. I mean, you're wearing a tie which isn't a bit dressier than business casual anyways. So if you wear a tie (business) and corduroys (if they consider them casual) then it cancels out into business casual!

$7.95 for UPS shipping in the US. They offer 2-day as well, which was something like $20.

I thought I read somewhere that Uniqlo doesn't offer shipping anymore
