The Bore Men's Style Thread for Patriotic Joggers, etc. NOW FEATURING UNDERCUTS

[Dickie Dee]

It's going to be in July. Who wears socks in the summer?

I'm not going to go out to a nice dinner wearing Croc's on my bare feet

[nudemacusers]

oh, definitely not a rental situation. this is more a long-term 'investment'.

i'm basically looking at this



vs



they both have the same basic features, about the same level of quality (top is better but only slightly)... while i like the general fit of the former, and the grosgain vs stain details, the lapel just feels kinda small to me. I dunno.

also keep in mind i'm a manlet so the jacket length won't be as short as it looks on these cacdemon adonises

[nudemacusers]

these are all on gilt fwiw, I just can't pull images off the site 

for reference here is the kind of fancy lapel i go for

[Madrun Badrun]

That last picture is ew

[nudemacusers]

i'd think someone with 'dandy' in their name would appreciate such an ensemble

[Madrun Badrun]

The jacket doesn't fit, like the comment that a dandy would like odd clothes for oddities sake; the lapel is disgusting wide, like Demi's mom; and the colours don't match, like my international dreams about PD.

[nudemacusers]

jacket fits perfectly, must just be the picture. it couldn't be slimmer anywhere.

matching colors? i'm wearing beige, dark khaki and white.

[nudemacusers]

hmm, i was thinking of something along those lines for kicking around.

These are in the new J Crew lineup:

(Image removed from quote.)

Yeah, they're pajama pants that are meant to be worn as casual pants. They're basically the same as the similar pants big in Europe for women but now for men! I vaguely remember men wearing stuff like this in the '90s too.

Honestly, they look pretty good in the Look Book. Looks very summery and casual. I think I might get some and wear them with a completely unbuttoned polo to the bar at 2 pm.

i rocked these during a good portion of last summer. it feels so good to have them back in rotation.

[TEEEPO]

though the pants do confuse the plebs

[Eli Gulgin]

Joggers? At least they're called that on some sites I think.

[TEEEPO]

coo, i'll bring my joggers to oklahoma and we can be twinsies

[nudemacusers]

levi signature skinny is pretty good, comes in a couple of chino and jeans options. they are 'exclusive' to walmart and kmart and about $20. I have a grey pair of jeans and they fit nicely and have a pretty good wash.

edit: wear em with regular everyday shit. neutral pants, complimentary colors up top. etc.


I also dug out a pair of joggers but they're melton wool and thus will not get a lot of love this summer  :'(

[TEEEPO]

wait, are they 511s or 510s?

[Squiddy]

Can you be too young for a tweed jacket?

I'm going to be a practicing psychologist in a couple of months, and I need to dress the part.

[nudemacusers]

I don't think so, just avoid those olive/brown/red/yellow etc loud old man checks

I'd think a soft glen plaid in grey or light brown would look good on anyone

[Squiddy]

This sort of thing?

[nudemacusers]

not a great picture, but sure.

this is too far:



this is edging it but wouldn't look weird:



this is probably best:

[Squiddy]

I really need a personal shopper.

[nudemacusers]

just pick like 3-4 non offensive colors that gel together and go from there. you're uk right? maybe topman or tk maxx would have some shit.

[Squiddy]

What sort of belt would you recommend to someone who can't use leather?
Does it have to be faux-leather or can I go with something more interesting?

[nudemacusers]

i've seen vegan leather belts that look fine. it's just a small strip of leather, nobody is really gonna notice the fine details. i'd keep belts simple for business apparel, personally, it should go with your shoes (color and texture), and I assuming those would be non-animal as well.

[Squiddy]

Cool, I'll go on a hunt then.

Can a regular person look this cool?

[nudemacusers]

i dunno i don't think that looks cool at all. it's too #menswear for my tastes

[Rufus]

Search for Kevin Stewart to see more of that guy.

How old do you have to be to pull off Hannibal suits.  Like this:



I'd suck that suit's cock.

[nudemacusers]

yeah his other photos are way better imo.

That kinda looks gay?

[nudemacusers]

if you want the item details just ask

[Squiddy]

Nah, too southern baptist for me.
You can't look like that in the UK.

[nudemacusers]

you're not allowed to wear a white blazer in the uk?!

[Squiddy]

If it's not illegal, it probably should be.
Let's call it a muslim blazer.

[nudemacusers]

first i'm a jew now i'm a muslim. you gotta pick one.

[TVC15]

Well, that's certainly not a jew nose.

[TVC15]

them shoes

I'm wearing my summer suit today (I used to have a blue cotton pique but I blew out the seat )

(Image removed from quote.)

Take notes, macauser.
This how you summer.

[nudemacusers]

your concern has been noted

[nudemacusers]

really? that's weird. granted I just get my levis in store but I've never noticed a meaningful difference in how they fit. I wonder if amazon gets some b-tier stuff with the a-tier.

[TEEEPO]

clae has a few nice casual boot/sneaker hybrids that are fairly minimal and cheap

http://clae.com/collection

[Dickie Dee]

Anybody got ideas where to look for a good quality, decent looking wallet for cheap?

[Brehvolution]

Buying Levi's in stores can be tough for tall, skinny people. The store only like to carry mostly pants for short, fat dudes. There is 5 fucking pair of 46-26 and no 32-34?

Herschel Supply Co.

Thanks! That's about the pricerange I was looking for - something between a $15 Walmart pleather special and everything else that seems to start at $90+

[Squiddy]

The worst is if you really need a 31.
Never find that shit, so I have to settle for a 30.

[Brehvolution]

I used to wear 31-34 for a decade. It got to a point where you could only get them online.

[Squiddy]

Fashion is a bit hit n miss:

[Rufus]

It's like concept cars. Some part of it will make it through.

need this shit for an outdoor wedding in a couple of weeks, damn

[CajoleJuice]

I didn't even mean that literally! Thanks 

There's actually a J. Crew Factory store near my grandma's house, too.

[Yeti]

I'm not a fan of the undercut, it too often looks like a bad toupee. There are a few good looking ones though.

When I shop in the USA, the sales rack always seems to be full of W32 L34 pants. 

[Positive Touch]

yeah but youre in cali. here in the midwest finding a pair that size is like striking gold

This suit is on sale for $133.50 right now.

Do their sizes run the same as most other stores? I've never shopped there before.

[nudemacusers]

define most other stores. IME it's cut pretty normally, not hyperslim like topman or whatnot. you're just gonna have higher armholes and a trimmer waist/leg than the standard blobsuit from jcpenny etc.
