I've heard nothing but good things about diemme. I would say, I'd assume red wing is higher on the 'shitkicker' scale, just because of the type of leather they use.

anyone have any good sweatpants that kind of taper? I don't like them swishing around my ankles
I hate buying shoes. I've currently got 3 pairs: Black/Brown low top Creative Recs, the middle shoe here, and some beeswax Clark's DBs
I mostly just wear the Creative Recs and I've worn holes in the bottom so I need new shoes. You guys have any suggestions for a very versatile shoe that I don't have to worry about getting dirty? Streetwear influence isn't necessary but might be cool, just no obnoxious shit. Cheaper is better.
Also, this is a stupid question but what color sneakers do you guys wear with black jeans? Seems simple, but nothing looks right to me.

I've read this entire topic and while I wasn't specifically looking for it I didn't see anything 'bad'... so I don't think I'd have much to do if I were!
Except for Style Fox not telling me about that blazer.
Looked but found nothing. The pic is from Citizens of Humanity AW '13, but they just sell pants.
ACNE, maybe see what Uniqlo has to offer.
White. Always white.

midnight power stretch came in the mail. they're so dark I might not even need to buy black power stretches now.
why you guys gotta be so scared of color
Those sneakers look nice!
Im currently in a sneaker buying craze. I just bought 3 pairs this/last month and i normally just buy one a year. I bought the limited Nike Stefan Janoski Digi Floral, the Supra Southwest Vaiders and a pair of classic Vans. I still want more though. XD

Dope as hell. I'd get that in a heartbeat if the price tag wasn't so high.
That's just an assumption, I don't actually know how much it costs, but I can only imagine since it's Band of Outsiders.
Looks like a pretty typical grey blazer if you ask me. It just fits outstandingly well. I own a Hugo Boss one almost identical to that and I'm pretty sure Topman makes something similar (if you can fit their stuff, SUPER slim).I've read this entire topic and while I wasn't specifically looking for it I didn't see anything 'bad'... so I don't think I'd have much to do if I were!

Just look online for a grey salt and pepper or tweed type blazer. You're bound to find something you like and in your size/price range.
The Midnights fades are awesome. The stretch won't fade as much, but once they do you'll definitely notice that it's a blue/purple color.

looks like a cotton jersey (aka knit) blazer of some kind. ie:

Oh? Well, this should work swimmingly. I was asking a friend recently for suggestions for places to get clothes from and he had suggested Topman for shirts. I should fit fine; I'm just not sure about 34 or 36. I believe I'm a 35, though I might have to double check that.
thanks, very glad to hear. bought.
It's just a gig, so jeans and t-shirt plus jacket.

I dunno if any of you care, but I have a friend desperate to sell this grail DH Luster piece for 1k and he asked me to see if anyone I knew wanted it. It's a size 48-46. Anyone interested?

Well, it is the rarest of the AW03 leather jackets, which were all made in France and are considered to be the best quality Dior Homme leather jackets. I've actually never seen one go for so cheap.
EDIT:
Luisa Via Roma put up SS14 stuff. Saint Laurent is... interesting. I don't expect I'm going to buy much from them this upcoming season. Unfortunately for my wallet, the somehow even more expensive Balmain looks awesome, which is strange, since I normally dislike Balmain.

Probably go for the 36. When I say it fits slim I mean SLIM. I tried on a 40 (my usual size) and almost tore through the armholes when I put it on. Definitely built for that slim British boy band build.
If you can fit it though it's hard to beat for the price.

I have what are, presumably, the same boots and wear them with black jeans all the time. It's good. The color looks better with black than blue, actually.
but I mean, that guy is right: black goes with everything, and pairing it with brown is definitely not a no-no any more (hasn't been for a long time).

it's only problematic if the brown is particularly dark; it just looks kind of odd. If it's a lighter grey/brown (which I assume it is), non-issue.

Black jeans are best jeans confirmed. I've worn my black jeans every day since I bought them three months ago, and they literally go with everything I put on. I'm actually going to buy another pair of the same jeans so I don't wear the first pair down too much.

I love my black jeans as well. I'd wear them more often but I'm currently breaking in a brand new pair of 16.5oz Japan Blue's. Need to get some good wear in them before I can rotate back.

both h&m and uniqlo have them so they should be easy to find.
I think wearing it like this looks damn sexy
Thanks, guys. I'll try that out next time. I ended up just wearing a pair of black/white hi-top Chuck Taylors, which looked fine.
This is my first pair of black jeans in years, and I love it. I definitely think most of my casual outfits works well with it.

5'6" 150lbs, Uniqlo S button downs fit great. Can't buy shit from H&M because apparently all of their clothes are made for 6' 120lb dudes with no torsos and huge arms
