At 6.5" and size 12, it's not even slim taper. It's skinny. The jeans with the Arenas look much better than the first picture with the Nikes, which looks like slim sweatpants with cuffs at the hem.
Info on the suit?
Being that I am on a college budget, I don't have any high quality trousers or anything of the sort. The brands I run with are stuff like: Kenneth Cole, Express, and Gap. Honestly, only my Kenneth Cole trousers (from full suit) are an 8" opening since I did not know specifically what to ask for when I got it tailored (first article of clothing ever that had alterations done) but I am happy with it. It does not look too "conservative" due to the no break look. However, it is a good intermediary between conservative and today's slim sleek look. All of my other trousers run at a 7" opening mostly with little to no break as well.With all the talk about leg openings, do you all follow a certain rule in correlation to shoe size?
Wj4?
Pinoy?
Or anyone on here that wears suits or trousers frequently?
I am a sz 8-8.5 shoe. But recently I have stopped tapering my more expensive Italian brand trousers , black label, Armani etc and although it doesn't look as flattering I feel more Boss lol Idk if it makes sense . I think it is more intimidating to ppl . I might go in and taper them too but idk .
Also, can you ask the tailor to save the cloth If he can save the cloth in the inseam when he slims down and tapers the pants so that you can reopen them and make the pants wide again in the future.. Is this possible?
Where can i find some quality charcoal grey tees?
GAGJR - Thanks man. Yep it's navy.
Hugo Boss Red Label. I posted pictures a while back, it has a very unique texture to it.

No doubt fan Anytime.Pinoy732, thanks for the reply bro! appreciate your input
To go along with this, I am 5' 10, 165lbs, and wear a 10D in dress shoes/boots and a 10-10.5 in sneakers for reference.To add to the hem opening discussion, I'm a little over 6 feet tall and my optimal opening is 7.5
I'm a size 11 in most shoes, a 44 (EU) for shoes and boots, and a 10.5 for boots and some dress shoes. 7.5 works perfect for me, and looks just right on my shoes and fits over boots nicely. I do have a pair of black trousers that are tapered down to a 7in opening, but I only wear them when I'm feeling, for a lack of a better word, aggressive.
More info please! Definitely interested in getting a pair of these to pair with a navy suit.
As for the whole hem thing, I was under the impression that if you're going to show your ankles, you should be doing it by cuffing your pants, NOT by hemming your trousers? The latter looks more like high waters, and that gives it a much different look.
Going on a boat in a few weeks and wanted something similar to this:
The one pictures is by Saint James and is over $200. Any ideas where I can find a cheaper alternative?
Thanks!

Why do you want to wear a sweater though?
once the pants are tapered, you can't make the leg opening bigger again
That's correct. Once you have taper it you cannot undo it. I have anything from 6.5 to 8" leg opening depending on the pants. I'm a size 9 in sneakers.With all the talk about leg openings, do you all follow a certain rule in correlation to shoe size?
