Yo, I'm going to Vegas from the 10th to the 12th and I need some gear to cop, so I come to you gear coppers for help.

I'm 6'4" 225ish, my waist size is a 38, I wear a size 13-14 shoe and basically I'm looking to get some evening wear. Shoes, pants and shirt/s for wearing out at night. I'm not really a slim dude, so I need some good examples of what I can wear out that looks good on a guy my size. Simple to over the top is all good with me. I just need some examples. Thanks.
 
I am looking to buy a new suit but I don't really know a whole lot about it. I would like a nice grey suit and my budget is around 600 dollars (maybe willing to go higher depending). I also want it to be tailored (of course). I was going to just go to nordsrtom and have them help me out. But I figured you guys might know a little more.

any suggestions?

dont know if these have been posted before, but if you have been looking for these sperrys, i found some of this color on piperlime.

all yours for $55

sperrys website also has the same color and material (along with blue wool) A/Os going for $90. sizes 9, 9.5, and 10 were all out of grey wool A/Os last time I checked.

EDIT: my bad the bahamas in the pic above are slightly different than the ones in the URL but

nonetheless.

Do the bahamas fit the same as the boat shoes? or are they more like a regular nike/true to size? thanks

i personally dont own a pair of bahamas but ive tried some on before and they are true to size.
 
Went by Macy's today to look for a pair of oversized Rayban Wayfarers (they didn't have) & found these on the sale rack marked for $198. $285 retail.

Turned out they were about $144, and dude gave me an additional 20% off bringing them to $102. Oh yea, Macy's took 10% off when you used your Macy's card, so that negated the tax. It was $102 and change. Very nice shoe in person, and the last in the store. Luckily, I fit the 8.5 and I am a 9.

@ all the contradictions. I suppose that's what makes this thread fun.

Apart from the pants being about an inch too long absolutely nothing. It's a clean look, it fits him well, looks good IMO.

When he has the assistance of GQ

 This is everything you need to know about not buying into fads. In the GQ shoot he went with a short jacket with terrible buttoning points. Its a CK suit - meaning its probably poorly constructed too (fused vs canvassed). That GQ picture is great more because of his swagger, sunglasses and GQ's photo shooting skills. The suit itself that he is wearing will be irrelevant and forgotten 10 years from now.

In the picture from the premiere, he is wearing a suit that can be worn 10, 20 years from now and still look sharp. He is growing up and probably realizes that. One day most of you will also realize that suits that that dont cover your butt, have buttoning points above your navel, peak lapels and not canvassed should form no more than 10% of your wardrobe. They are at best meant for a night on the town.
