Was thinking of grabbing some for this very reason.

I wish we could institute some kind of law banning white pants.
Leather jacket?

I like off-white pants
Been working out and trying to put on mass, my jeans are getting smaller and smaller for me and while I don't mind the way they look it does start to feel uncomfortable wearing them at times.
Current ones:
Tried on these Guess jeans at store, which felt quite nice but were out of my price range:
I'd probably buy them if I could find them somewhere for -20% off, but considering how my weight and thigh size will probably change by summer I think I'm just gonna delay the purchase until then. Last thing I want is to spend all that money and then have the pants not fit 2 - 3 months from now.

No luck finding shoes but I did buy this nudie liquid coated herbert denim shirt. They haven't made these since 2011 I don't know why the store had them.

Liquid coated? Is it like, waxed?

They spray paint on the liquid indigo to give it that subdued waxy feel and look. As far as I know they only did it to their pants and other clothing for F/W 2011.

I used JT for accessories. I got a watch that died after a week, they really asked no questions when I wanted a refund Shipping is trackable and quick

Where do you all buy your everyday jeans and everyday corduroy? directed to those with muscular thighs

I think you guys need to look for apc rescue or nudie average joes or naked and famous regular guys. Basically the loosest fits they have. Stop trying to fight your thighs and squeeze into slim or tapered versions of jeans.
I'm in the same situation, runner and workout and my thighs are big lol. I choose slim pants because hey, why fight it. plus all the ladies and/or fellas wont mind

I'm gonna end up spending the price of a launch ps3 on some shoes if those slp sneakers call my name.

If you wear a purple shirt with a black waistcoat/vest/whatever you call it in English over it, what colour should the tie be? Just black to match the waistcoat?
You can either go Black(boring zzz), either the same colour as the shirt, but a different texture, or a different shade of the shirt, same texture. Or a third colour which compliments both.

So who sells these naked and famous jeans you guys are always talking about?

Were they bespoke pants?
Brick and mortar so you can try them on? Higher end department stores (a la Nordstrom, Barneys, etc.).

Not a fan of them myself but I don't think there's anything wrong with them.

20% off site wide when you use WELCOMEAGAIN20 code at checkout. Available on Common Projects, can get a pair for 320 or so, decent deal I think for the white/black color ways.

Got a fabric steamer. No more ironing pleb life for me. I cannot recommend it enough.
Sucks they only got the white achilles. I'll be damned if I ever buy white shoes again. Every time I wear them it's like I can't think of anything besides avoiding hazards. Nice to see people posting about sales and stuff though we need more of that here.

I just want them to release smooth grain rec sneakers again. my dog ate them. i'm still bummed about that.
What brand/type did you get? How expensive was it? Does it do everything an iron does?

Im really new to trying to dress myself better, so Im glad I have this forum to read haha. I bought this shirt and love the fit, but I kind of have a thought in my head that maybe it looks like a work shirt or its too shiny. What do you guys think?
I got the dark blue. Just a basic shirt, nothing fancy.

nah that's a good casual shirt for the summer, I'd definitely not wear it with an undershirt, though.

Not even something like a v-neck? Im still not too comfortable without at least some kind of undershirt. Maybe I need to get over that haha.

nah man just rock it bare, it will feel much nicer.
It will show through.
I don't know if I learned it here, but I think grey undershirts don't show through. If you're worried about pit stains, that might be an option.

ettinger, aspinal, paul smith; depending on how fashionable you want to get.
Ettinger and Paul Smith are just a bit tad too expensive for my budget. Aspinal looks like good choice and the price is sort of reasonable, but I don't know if I like the look of them. A bit too formal perhaps. I might go with them, if I happen not to find a good substitute.
As I said, Ted Baker have som fab looking ones such as those:

the second ted baker looks nice; the first has way too much texture for such a small wallet (but could just be the pics) and the last is a little over-detailed.
Yeah, that is what nearly thought. Thanks! I'll go with that (next month when I get paid that is)
