This. I've never been a fan of fitteds but when I'm too lazy to do hair I want something to turn too.

I think Superga's are my new favorite 'casual sneaker'

I have been wearing my brown pair and my grey pair to death.

I love these things,

Stopped by BR on Wednesday, got two plaid buttondowns, nothing major.

You need to go a day or two before because if you go on that Wednesday, they won't give it to you as they throw out the coupons the night before or the day before. It doesn't matter how you pay. It's 40% off one full price item.

Thanks for the heads up. I would have went in Wednesday and it being the last Wednesday I would have gotten nothing.

I'm not sure if this was already addressed earlier in the thread but can sleeves be shortened for dress shirts? I have relatively shorter arms and I hateit when the sleeves are really baggy around the forearm and elbow areas. Whenever I am in the office, I just roll my sleeves up but it would still be nice tohave a better fit in the arms.

Niidawg, that is a good looking week(no %%%%). Do people even appreciate that?

 

[dabuddhawitjays]

I need a nice fitted pea coat.

Preferably black.

Any recommendations?

BR, perhaps?

I need a store I can actually go into, to try it on.

You need to shop around with other brands. Or worst case scenario...go get some custom made for you. On the better brands, there will be 2numbers, a neck and arm length. First go get yourself measured so you know what to look for.

Why would you want a fitted pea coat? Give it some room in case you want to bundle it up with a sweater, vest, cardigan, etc. under.

Here's BR's one...the charcoal one looks good in the store. Black is too bland in that material for my taste.

I believe way back in the thread, folks asked Nii where he worked and he said for GQ. If that's the case, they probably have a dress code forit.

I do think that only a very small group of folks out there appreciate the finer details, ie the shirt sleeves showing just a bit, or the pants fit just rightwith not excessive breaks. To most people, they only dress like this because they have to.

What does Levis mean by Rigid?

I would guess they mean that hard $!*, cardboard denim.

The kind you gotta break/wear-in

 

[niidawg3]

thanks for all the compliments guys - appreciate it.

i do get comments - sometimes more than i expect, sometimes less. however, dressing well has always been something i liked so it gets to a point you dont caretoo much about the compliments or appreciation, if they are not forth-coming.

and WJ4 - no i dont work for GQ - never said i did.

if you look closely at my pictures, you'll get an easy hint of where/who i work.

stay stylin' folks...

 

[rsdplaya]

what u guys think...should i pull the trigger...?
probably won't be able to get em for cheaper...
