I am a size 8 (a 7.5 depending on the fit of these). These are the colorways I am looking for, but it seems like they are impossible to find. If any of you guys can help me that would great! If anyone know of a decent selection of Chukkas in NYC let me know.

Go to shop style.com type in sperry shoes in the search bar and browse I think I saw a couple that looked similar to what you want. Bookmark that site its very helpful

NT, I just got paid 500 and sum dollars for graduation. I was wondering what would be some good clothes to get with some of the money (not all)

i was thinking about getting some shortsleeved button downs from Old navy for like $10 each, and some cardigans from urban outfitters.
EDIT-shirts like these

what do you guys reccomend I buy as school clothes etc. for next year (shoes included, btw i have some brown sperrys)

The only things not too big, really, are the belt and the vest. I'd give that outfit an E for effort, though.

^I agree. The button-up should be slimmer and fit to your shape.

Also, I don't think as a short dude you want a squared off toe like that. Something a little more elongated like Apollo Ohno's would work better. Dude's thighs are massive (no momo) but his pants still don't have that overall fullness/relaxed fit to them that yours do.

Your boy on the other hand...kid is a mess. First, throw out those shoes for him. Second, point him away from Men's Warehouse and in the direction of this thread or something. Damn.

Im sorry, but what exactly is wrong with MW??.....I bought my wedding suit from them and after alterations the suit is looking pretty good IMO, I just need to go back one more time to do some alterations to the jacket and bring up the inseam on the pants to be able to wear them a bit lower, but thats all....I feel that as long as you tailor the suit to go with your body, you should be ok and from my experience with MW they have good customer service and will do as many alterations as you like, I just dont get the hate towards MW in this thread...

Was searching for a replacement for the terrible quality stan smiths. Copped some common project achilles in white for the summer. The italian leather is butter

. Awesome shoe and quality, although a bit over priced.

Not my pic

Old Navy is running 30% off their clearance section.

I got 9 t-shirts (regular v-necks, striped v-necks, and some graphic tees) and a navy blue cardigan (for $3) for a total of $65.

And I'm going to hit another ON tomorrow.

You guys should check it out ...

JrHodges - I was really into EXPRESS at one point, but now i only like their really dressy stuff, like the 1mx shirts and producer pants, other than that their regular clothes (jeans, tees, polos) have become really "guido-$@%"...so ive withdrawn from it alot...really feeling JCREW lately, but their prices are

for the most part.
