[NinjaBoiX]

Fly jacket mac, I like it.

 

[Pocks]

I took advantage of the 25% code at h&m. Around $75 for 3 espadrilles and 2 sneakers.

I expect them to last maybe until August or September, but I'm ok with that.. hah

 

[Visceir]

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?

Charcoal Blue is the best suit color.

 

[ToyMachine228]

Anyone have a recommendation for where to buy some cheap, stylish summer tees other than ASOS? Thanks!

 

[jesalr]

Just had a friend argue that leaving the bottom button undone is for fat people who can't fully close their suits.

I would like to know this as well.

 

[jesalr]

I don't like going on nights out with people who look stupid.

 

[freenudemacusers]

the guy does realize that most suits are not cut for the second button to be closed, yeah?

 

[luckyboyceo]

I'm trying to work my way into short sleeve button-ups this summer so I bought a basic one from J. Crew today to test the waters. Now if only I can find some crazy patterns I'll be set.

 

[CFMOORE!]

shit, now i am tempted to buy this. the navy trim is really making it hard to resist.

I looked like such a jackass when I tried on short sleeves.

 

[freenudemacusers]

It's all about airing the guns in the summer. I need to adds more s/s to my collection.

I have also taken an important step and have decided to only wear monochrome shoes from now on. Just need to find a home for the unwanted.

 

[luckyboyceo]

Godspeed, Mac. I can't imagine my life without brown shoes/boots.

 

[JustHadToJoin]

The most interesting ties to me are the ones that don't have a consistent pattern all the way across. Anyone know where to buy good one, like Mike Ross' tie below?

Still not sure why I like this:

they're called placement stripes, but often called 'single stripe', and I've seen them from band of outsiders and a couple other places on the higher-end

not sure your budget, but I have heard good things about tie bar, and they have a run of them called 'prodigy stripe'.

 

[rokkerkory]

Nice fit and color! Price?

 

[freenudemacusers]

there is still white and grey!

not sure which one he is wearing but

http://www.zara.com/us/en/man/blazers-c392502.html

not sure about the quality and whatever, as I haven't poked my head in a zara for a good number of years, but at $100 or whatever I can't imagine complaining too much.

Haha, nice. I had someone tell me something similar once. Something along the lines of "if you button that bottom button it's gonna be sooooooo tight." Yea, you know nothing about style, fitment, etc. GTFO.

 

[hoggert]

Keep forgetting to post this: Gant US store just restocked with a bunch of shit from fall.

70% off, all final sale. Some good stuff left. Shirts, chinos, hats. All their nice ties from last summer/pre-fall sold out in an instant unfortunately.

digging a couple of the sweaters. thanks.

 

[Visceir]

Yeah, it was really nice and the price is reasonable. Only reason I didn't buy it is because summer is still months away and by then my body might have changed slightly. Figured I'd delay the purchase until then.

Def looks better in person than on those website photos, fabric had a nice shine to it. More suited to late night clubbing, I guess.

 

[Buckethead]

No one has shoes I want. Tannish/brown wingtips that aren't too brown/red.

Such a tragedy.

 

[Antagon]

So something like Allen Edmonds McAlister in walnut?

 

[bPod]

Looking forward to Spring weather. Yay or nay?

[y2dvd]

This is going to be a silly question but the jeans that are rolled up slightly at the bottom. Does that work with any jeans or is it a type of style you can find at stores? Are people just buying longer lengths and rolling it up?

From the first page.

Any jeans can be cuffed like that. A lot of people get selvedge denim so they can show off the selvedge line.

 

[Buckethead]

I want something like this, basically a mix between tan and light tan, and the sole color like bPod posted similar to the light tan one there.

Going to do the 6 month wash on my N&Fs, is 30C in the washing machine correct? Should I put a washing capsule in or just water?

 

[Zoned]

Can you wear boat shoes with socks? Without socks it gets sweaty. Any suggestions (Other than powder crap)?

You can. Should you? Typically, it's not done. Get some of the no-show socks available from various places, assuming the boat shoes aren't cut too low for the sock.

 

[_Isaac]

Why is it okay to not wear socks with boat shoes?

 

[Illithid Dude]

I just bought an awesome men's fashion magazine from S/S 2004. Incredible how many brands have either drastically changed, or don't even exist anymore. rip the gucci cowboy

 

[latinlikeaviolin]

Hey gaf, I'm still in love with that visvim noragi. Anyone know anything similar that won't destroy my livelihood and estrange all relationships

Not actually one apparently.

i was referring to dameuelaemastersr, who is recently retired. and marc isn't doing lv anymore. WHAT KIND OF CHART IS THIS

Looks like something from S/S 2010 tbh

(oh wait it came out in early 2013 before she left her label)

 

[Kraftwerk]

I miss Alexander McQueen. He was a genius.

I don't get this. A wash every 6 months? That's kind of disgusting. They must stink by that point, urgh.

If they're such good quality, why can't you wash them once a week like normal person jeans?

Edit: I just read again, you're questioning whether to use detergent as well? Are these jeans made out of discarded paper towels or something?

Lunacy.

I know it's a common thing, but I just find if pretty gross, to not wash your clothes at least every few times you wear them. And to possibly contemplate "washing" them without any soap is just pointless, might as well just wear them when it's raining.

Are expensive clothes so fragile that you can't even wash them normally? Seems like a QA issue to me.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

At least Lunchbox was funny.

 

[NinjaBoiX]

Haha, I'm not trolling, just trying to understand the reasons for washing your clothes so infrequently. Especially ones that are presumably meant to be top quality.

But the fact no-one has given an actual response so far speaks volumes.
