first you hate on cp highs, now you hate on gitman


but for those looking for kewl prints you can often get brands like ymc, wesc and co on ebay for pretty cheap. and reyn spooner if you want to go full old-man print.

CP highs is alright.

In a fit of madness, I bought the shorts in this print recently. Going to make my wife and kids cringe when I bust them out on our vacation next week.

i really can't wait until it's memorial day and I can bust out my noxious liberty print.

Red trousers are cool, they can really set off an outfit.

I basically wear green or blue pants, light blue or white shirts, and green or navy jackets.

How red fits, I dunno.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

It's been 3 weeks if not more and still no customs fees from that TBS order. Mac doesn't know what he's missing.

 

[Illithid Dude]

I assure you I don't splurge as hard as Ill does.

you did once buy 1k julius cargos though

still waiting for the waywt for those

ok i'll cop something and if i get some bullshit in the mail i'm coming for you.

If you email them asking for a 20% off code they might give you one.

Bonobos slim-straight bottle rockets are damn amazing jeans. Feel fantastic.

is it okay to wear a gray blazer with white undershirt and black slacks?

Need pics.

Also;

One of the shops near me has started carrying Patrik Ervell. Now I can finally try some of the jackets Alucrid recommended me a while ago. They are perfect for spring.

 

[NinjaBoiX]

I basically wear green or blue pants, light blue or white shirts, and green or navy jackets.

Red pants would work great with a light blue or white shirt, and a navy jacket would look cool too.

I'm not sure how well a green jacket would work with red pants though, I guess it depends on the shades.

 

[freenudemacusers]

Need pics.

I posted a quick selfie a while back but it's this:

one of the gitman/opening ceremony releases for london 2012. have not been able to source the corresponding stars and stripes shorts, sadly.

or should i opt for navy blue slacks but the shoes are black

mac, that shirt is incredible.

These are all fairly muted, well suited colours. I'd just try a few combos see what looks best.

well i already bought the above combo but I get home, do some research, and i see some people online swearing to never wear black slacks with a light color blazer.....

idk, im new at this.

I need some better black jeans, these 510's don't fit anything like my old pair. Levi's quality control RIP

I need to get on the this flora hype

 

[Square Triangle]

Okay, not much into fashion or brands but I've grown to really really love the fit of American Apparel shirts. The Slim fit design and basic colors really intrigue me. What other brands offer the same fit without costing a fortune? My latest kick is the 3/4 sleeve baseball tees, just super comfortable and I've gotten a lot of compliments, surprisingly.

 

[Boken]

oh man i gotta get in on this dip dying business

my wardrobe is sorely lacking and the designs have been getting hella tight

confused, do you mean wearing a blazer + teeshirt + black dress pants? and re: that rule, imo it holds if you're wearing the same fabric top and bottom, otherwise I don't think it's a panacea. Most of my blazers are on the lighter end while my pants are generally darker.

but wearing a tee and blazer with dress pants can be tricky, it can easily look like a total mismatch of very casual and very formal. Instead, maybe a vneck sweater?

edit: I would go with blue personally. depends on the specifics. pics?

alternative apparel is basically the same deal but in a more chill vibe.

What is with this floral and sweats trend going on? Those two look like a mess, but it is catching on somehow.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

That shirt is incredible but dip dyes are too much.

 

[freenudemacusers]

what are you saying about my shirt

 

[Alucrid]

i made it better

Floral with sweats? Where?

And since when did Pantone do clothing?! O_O

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

A dip dye print shirt would be pretty nuts surprised no one did it yet.

[zeopower6]

Phillip Lim also had some ombre dip-dyed shirts/pants that looked pretty neat a few years ago.

Burberry Brit also has some nice dip dye polos and some ombre-ish T-shirts available. Looking through more of their shirts, I kind of really like this painted check shirt, ahhhh...

DIY though can look pretty good though if you know what you're doing.

My good friend, Visvim founder and CTO Hiroki Nakamura continues to impress us each season, and this summer’s Tees are especially nice. We often hear complaints that brands like Visvim have a low cost-benefit ratio, but I feel Visvim starting to offer very affordable pieces like this Tee make a non-purchase increasingly hard to justify.

Shopping for my spring/summer wardrobe tomorrow~

 

[Alucrid]

you did once buy 1k julius cargos though

still waiting for the waywt for those

lol, they were second hand so i can't claim baller status on that.

also, you should buy this

 

[BuggyDClown]

I need to buy my first suit. I will need it for interviews, and a few weddings throughout the year ect.

Basically I want something kinda nice but don't know where to look or what to expect. I'd love something with a nice fit having just lost a bunch of weight lol.

I'm looking to spend 600-1k? hoping thats a good range, don't really know.

 

[freenudemacusers]

there are a good number of ck collection suits on myhabit right now for about $500. nice slim fit without being too trendy or stodgy. you can definitely get something very good for that price, especially if you have the time and/or desire to mess with online shopping.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

I gotta upgrade as much of my clothes to $$$ status as possible in the next 6-8 months because once full on university starts I'm gonna be strapped.

 

[freenudemacusers]

yoox has at or under $1k:

caruso
canali
cantarelli
(the c's are all very well priced)
boglioli
etc

and this isn't even getting into the fashion labels like prada, jil sander, margiela and so on. come deep sale time all the non-mainstream labels get cheap. ridiculously cheap.

I would imagine not owning a suit would make it tough for me to get a good fit shopping online no? I'm not sure at all what jacket size would be right for me.

Those CK suits look kinda nice. Is there a material I should be looking for, they say wool.. is that hot? Thick? lol I'm not high fashion. I wear fitted dress shirts when I go out, 501 jeans and AA tshirts mostly.

SuitSupply my man.

Thanks I'm going to check that out.

EDIT: Website is NOTHING like I would have imagined with a name like suit supply. Show uncensored fucking LOL.

Double Edit: Damn some of these look nice.

mac's shirt is incredible in the same way your pearlescent denim jacket is incredible.

i've come way too close to buying that shirt before

re: finding a good fit... yes and no. most of the european suits I have encountered are 95% the same*. the usually differ in pants rise or chest suppression more than anything, and only by a small margin. ck collection is a pretty easy fit, IMO. The shoulders are not super narrow and the thighs of the pants have a bit more room in them vs say something from Dior.. I'm a medium in most things and take a 38, fwiw. maybe acrid can stop by and post some selfies of the suit i sent him blindly...


re: fabric, it's the standard all-season wool. might be a little hot in a 100 degree summer, but I've done ok. wool is actually a pretty good at wicking moisture.

*I have owned the following suit brands at one point or another, and have tried on several more:

viktor & rolf
martin margiela
jil sander
marc jacobs
burbery london
calvin klein collection
cantarelli
costume national
zzegna

Spoiler

not going to get into how many of these are/were grey

Overcast, let's be thread bros.

We can exchange hand me downs and stuff to help scrimp and save.

Your dye clothing talk reminded me that I own this, which I rarely wore last summer.
Opinions? not me obviously but Im never really sure with the damn thing.

Haha, I just bought yet more swag today. Another tee and a jacket.

Might post pics later.

I actually really like this. It's a really gradual fade and the stripes help to break it up. I would absolutely wear that.

It's when it's quite a harsh gradient that it looks a bit shit IMO, like it's literally been dipped in dye.

(I get that that's the idea! Just not my thing.)

[Frustrated_me]

I've been looking for a blazer this color, fit and type. It's 549$ I like the sporty used look, is there an alternative you guys propose at a more affordable price?

 

[Marcovaldo]

maybe topman? i mean that looks like a standard navy blazer but with really really thin lapels

 

[Frustrated_me]

Yeah may need to visit Topman soon, thanks.
