What's everyone's take on buttoning shirts all the way up without a tie?

My friend does this and I think it looks unique and cool, but do you guys think it is corny?

It works for certain people. I've never been a fan, personally.

I think one or two buttons undone looks way better in most situations. Buttoned all the way generally looks uncomfortable I think.

I love the SLP highs so much that I'm getting them in white this weekend. They are a little slimmer then most highs I've had, but I suppose that's just part of the SLP aesthetic.

 

[Horse Detective]

Awh, thats too bad.

 

[Boken]

I think buttoning all the way up works if youre going for a slim preppy look

like real slim

For the first time in 30 years (since I can remember, I'm 33) I grew toe nails. I need sandal recommendations!

 

[lethial]

Nice boots but they look like water skis with that outfit.

I rock my shirts button all the way up pretty frequently.

Also untucked

I love the way it looks. I wish I could know if it is really disliked irl.

This works with certain shirts I have, others it looks a bit awkward. I tend to do it if I can get away with it though, it looks neater and just better in some cases.

if you love it then you should rock it, horse detective.

I'd say, “Never do it! You never see it done except in, like, Vice Magazine,” but I don't even like wearing a shirt if I can help it.

Do whatever makes you feel good.

i do it with my cdg and jw shirts cuz thats how the models rock it

I almost always have my sleeves rolled up to mid forearm (this goes for long sleeve t-shirts and light jackets too)

The Boyd Crowder look?

 

[luckyboyceo]

Honestly, I just don't see the practicality of buttoning up the shirt all the way this time of year. If you live anywhere that's routinely over 80 degrees in the summer time, wouldn't that just be uncomfortable?

I guess if it's a real lightweight shirt it's not a big deal, but still, I'd want to have my neck breathe a little bit.

tie button unbuttoned unless you wear a tie
untucked
rolled sleeves to elbow

urkel wears buttoned and tucked, do you want to be urkel?

 

[freenudemacusers]

illithid very nice, jeans are kinda slim tho haha.

Slimane has never been able to design a good shoe.

what manner of written diarrhea is this

speaking of shoes are these cool or whack:

kinda want these as a summer shoe

 

[Zekes!]

just cut up an old pair of Levis 511s in to some shorts. Got them cuffed up a few inches above the knee. The wash isn't quite what I want in a jean short, but they'll do.

 

[Rookje]

Fuck, I missed out that Beautiful Ful shirt I wanted..

 

[Salazar]

Untucked, sleeves up and buttoned up for me usually.

Tucked, sleeves up, unbuttoned.

This is nice, but man. $335 is some craziness.

 

[Raynes]

Anyone know good UK sites to grab some cheap suede shoes. Not plimsolls btw.

 

[Alucrid]

illithid, p cool, would like to see some less skinny jeans wit ha bit of stacking though

 

[freenudemacusers]

Ain't nothing like taking a fashion selfie while someone blows their asshole out 5 feet away.

 

[Horse Detective]

"Blow my asshole"

I'm going to have to save that one for next time I am with a lady

 

[Boken]

What do I do with my skinny jeans now??!?!

 

[CornBurrito]

Tucked, sleeves up, unbuttoned.

Tucked in but unbuttoned? How does that even work.

 

[Dance Inferno]

I assume he means the top button on the collar is left unbuttoned. It works fine.

 

[Alucrid]

Top two

 

[freenudemacusers]

Pop collar, unbutton all buttons. Sleeves included. Tuck.

Wrap a shirt around your waist too

 

[freenudemacusers]

As long as it fits good and you iron it can't see the issue.

Anyone have recommendations for stylish running shoes? I've never had running shoes before but I decided that I should pick some up since I'm going to add running to my fitness regimen. Thanks guys!

If you want shoes for actual running you should go get fitted at a place that deals in that sort of thing. I ended up with air pegasus which isn't a bad looking shoe though I rarely wear it for anything else but ya know... running.

For style I love a flyknit. This thread seems to agree on the black/white. I have the blue and pink to freak a contrast. I love 'em.

A friend of mine uses this Hong Kong-based tailor (Nita Fashions) who comes into town every 2-3 months to take tailoring orders. Essentially he shows up for a week with a bunch of fabrics and you decide how many shirts/suits you want in which fabrics, and he then makes them when he goes back to HK and ships the clothes to you a few weeks later. Shirts cost like $65-95 and suits are around the $700 range I think.

Anyone have any experience with something like this? I'm kind of wary of getting shirts/suits tailored by an out-of-town tailor since I can't really go back to him if something ends up not fitting well.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Want these.

Jesus christ... surely that must be like a 5000% profit margin.

just hope the yen depreciates to hell and then import

 

[Horse Detective]

My friend has a shirt like that, but it's a lot cheaper.

I couldn't believe how many compliments that dude got while I was hanging out with him that day. I don't know if it is super trendy or what, but his self esteem must have been through the roof.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

He's got the aura.

 

[Rookje]

Whoever has been styling Chris Pine, props

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Seeing those chris pine pics reminds me what I like. Doing the basics well with just a touche of variety, like a slightly unusual cut, an odd pocket somewhere, etc.

That or one loud item like the floral shirt combined with extremely basic other stuff. Like black pants, and basic shoes. All I care about is doing the basics well.

 

[Rookje]

Anyone know what that first blue shirt is?
