Dressing Better Vol 2.0

[Hank Scorpio]

Adrian cops sneakers for $600 fam. 2 for $500 is a steal.

First time I ever laughed at something you said. I think we can get along someday now.

A decent leather is on my list as well, just can't decide which style I want. Was leaning towards a moto jacket but now I like the cafe racer one from Schott more

Check out Aero, they may have what you're looking for

While we're on the topic of leather jackets, do you guys think black is more versatile than brown? I really like this Orvis Coronado. I'm a little concerned the waist might not be slim enough for me though. Bonus checks come next month so I might spend a little coin. 

Depends on the person whether or not it's more versatile

pretty excited for some of these GAP x GQ pieces.

Best Gap X GQ collection by far

Damn I want a lot from the JE. Wonder what quality is like though cuz that's a slap in the face for already owning a bunch of their stuff lol

Side note had to exchange timbs, too big. And had to exchange pbj stuff, too small. Hate mail order sometimes but I liked the boots and crew necks a lot though.

When does that capsule drop? The JE jeans and hoodies are a no-brainer.

Been telling you guys, All Saints are all about the aesthetic and look, at retail you aren't going to be happy in quality.

I have 3 All Saints leather jackets, crack! They have great sales towards the end of the season 50-70% off, never pay retail price. Oh, and their sizing is all over the place.

Surprised to see JE offer identical pieces at 1/3 the price. And spare me on the quality argument.

Collection drops on Tuesday September 30 but I know gap is having a pre sake to those who sign up. Not sure when that starts though

I'm rolling... dam thats crazy man.. at that price point, I'd cop all the basics.. when do they go on sale?

Dillard's has 40% things already on clearance sale today through Saturday, even had some RL suits came down to like $103 but I just stacked up on Perry Ellis and RL pants, got 6 for like $88 after tax

You can cop retail pairs from Nordstrom Annual Sale for $220

I copped this directly from them for $200 and tax. Called the Wisconsin number and the lady was very helpful as usual. First quality. I copped about a month ago.

I wouldn't personally spend more than $250 for any AE. The construction, while decent, is apparently inferior to other main players.

Whats everyones thoughts around the Del Toro chukkas as a high end purchase? I mean its more of a mid high end... they can be got for around $250-$375... im eyeing a pair of the all red quilted chukkas right now...

Hand made in Italy. 

thoughts? 

Or is this thread biased (Balenciaga or AE's > Anything else)  like the car threads? ( Hemi or M3/5 > Anything else)

Fellas,

What are the best spots for a decent jean jacket? I looked at Old Navy but want something different.

I have a bunch of AE's but love my Carmina's far more.

Just sayin.

Spoiler

Balenciaga's > your favorite sneaker

went with a mtm maker but wanted some feedback...they'll do free alterations for another 3 weeks if something needs to be changed 

 

[pinoy732]

Waist could be nipped a tad and taper throughout the arm sleeve. Also shorten the sleeves to about your wristbone.

Other than that, looks great.

I have always been a fan of Gap and Levis personally

 

[typerpinoy]

You need to put on a real shirt to get a better idea of what needs to be done

Got my trucker jacket from the Levi outlet for about $50 while they had a sale and they let me stack 15% military discount
