Men's Fashion |OT| Style is eternal; But my wallet isn't

They make gloves out of selvedge denim...?

Been on a watch lust binge lately.



All under $200, outside of the Max Bill. 🍆

I want all of these now.

So, after several weeks of hunting, I think I have my choices down to four choices:

Filson Field Satchel

This one's my favorite. Less flashy, more understated, but looks really nice. Ghurka's number 2.
 
breh they made boxers out of selvage chambray.

and i dig this frank clegg number, the wall street

seems like the most 'business' of the bunch, straps and belts on bags always seem ever so slightly casual to me.
 
can't find mac's fashion week thread so will just say i really liked what fendi and cavalli showed, two labels i usually don't pay much attention to
 
I can't stand Versace and Hermes, because of their stupid logo

And I refuse to buy Tom Ford, because Tom Ford is a stupid name.

Still window shop their stuff tho lol.
 
Anyone try Jack Erwin shoes? They got some Chelsea boots there for $210 that I'm thinking I like. JE any good?

Tom Ford is the James Bond dude that makes his suits tight as hell, right?
 
say what you will about tom ford and versace, hermes actually makes beautiful clothing.

That's the sad thing. I found a veryyyyy nice jacket in their downtown Vancouver shop on sale.....didn't buy it......fuck that logo. Sad too, cuz I prefer French over Italian in most matters. Their tied in their quality of porn tho

Shout out to the hilarious sales chick who was trying hard as fuck to get a sale outta me. She was smoking too.

Ntgyk, you still have an appointment at indochino on Sunday lmao. They keep sending me updates on email.

You still wanna go or should I call them and cancel because of their shitty service the last time we went, even though it's your bitch ass fault for making us late because you drive worse than Big Smoke

Fuck it, cancel. We'll go later and you can drive and show me how it's done. I got shit on Sunday. We were waiting like a solid forty minutes, so whatever.

Also I'm still loling at how blatantly the perfume girl at The Bay just unbuttoned her shirt when you were talking to her. This fucking guy.

When it comes to men's fashion France has no game on Italy. In fact it is also inferior in almost every other department.

I am a biased Italian:p

Does anyone here have experience with Hurberry heritage trench coats?

Rainy season is a few months away for me and I have always been in love with trenches. I haven't shopped around much for one, but the Classic Westminister looks perfect for me, except the stupid house check undercollar, which is the one thing putting me off it. I just love the length of this compared to the others in the Heritage collection.

My main question is, does it handle the rain as good as they claim? I want to be bone dry under it in the middle of a downpour. I have to walk between buildings several times a day and don't want to be soaked.
 
france outfragrances italy by a good margin tho :p

I don't know about burberry heritage but I was fairly dismissive of undying forum praise for stuff like loro piana storm system (claims of wind/waterproofing and temp control) until I got a jacket made of the stuff and it is no joke and works like a dream. I'd assume classic burberry trenches which have a similar rep for foul weather mastery are on that same level. tangentially, but I have seen sales associates in high end stores here in seattle demoing herno outerwear and isaia aquaspider in the omnipresent rain :p

Cool, I will give some of those brands a look and see if they have anything stylish and as long as the Westminster. I like that it goes down to around the knees.

Again, I am biased on fragrances. I pretty much exclusively use Acqua di Parma. I am scared to test their Oud fragrance because I know I will love it and drop a few hundred on it. :(

How about InCase? I bought one about 7 months ago and it's holding up nicely. They're about a hundred bucks on their website but their cheap on amazon. Check them out:

This is pretty nice and affordable. If the one Horse Detective posted is too expensive this might be a good choice. That other one is gorgeous though.

Also, RIP Floral Print, Spring 2014-Fall 2014? Or is it still approved?

I still see people wearing floral, but it's dying out, I think.
How about coloured chest pockets?

Does anyone have recommendations for minimalistic Macbook sleeves? I used to have a Foof sleeve but my new Macbook doesn't fit properly in it and their current designs aren't my cup of tea. Looked around a bit but most of the stuff out there has loads of unnecesary bells and whistles.
