Info on the shirt? Fit is on point. Also any recommendations on a casual leather belt? I like the ones on Tanner Goods site but don't have the dough to drop that much on a belt right now.

ksteezy - desert boots really are the TRUTH. so versatile. Easy to roll em out casually or you can dress em up too. I recently just picked up the beeswax Clarks Desert Boots - Bush Acre II. I meant to cop the beeswax Bush Acre I, but copped these accidentally. The Bush Acre I has a lighter more pronounced brown-beeswax shade. The II's are a darker, more subtle beeswax hue, but STILL dope nonetheless. Keeping them and will keep my eye out for the I.

Also, check out the Clarks Desert Boot - Desert Khan. Its a low top cut, also in beeswax. The color on these is real contrasty, a true beeswax shade. Like butter baby.

Im on the hunt for the gray pair, and the metallic black and brown (cats on here weren't feelin em at ALL..lol)

Those brown ones you got above are crazy dope. Ima sucker for tumbled leather.. Whats the official color name on those?

Go a Half size up. Im a 10.5 in Jordans/Nikes so I went with an 11 perfect fit
 
Found a pic back in like 2002 at my heaviest I think...200lbs 5'6

Heaviest I weighed was 180lbs, but I was @ 15% BF  and was going HAM at the gym and I'm just about an inch or two taller.

I can't imagine that extra 20lbs. All I wore back then was sweatpants and hoodies because I hated wearing jeans.

Last summer i weighed about 280, and from there i decided to lose weight. By december i dropped down to 245., and im still trying to going down. I had a teaching internship between that time, and every time i got dressed, i felt big and i looked at my thighs and stomach and just hated it

. However, the more i lost, i got more swag i got
laugh.gif
, got some compliments as well.It also sucks when you walk into jcrew, gap, etc and know whatever it is wont fit you, and you end up leaving the store with lower confidence. So all in all, it could be possible, but its really hard.
Not even trying to joke but watch "I Used to Be Fat" on MTV. Got kids losing like 80 lbs during the summer

Anyhow, I agree with ksteezy. Scarves are definitely a must-have in the winter. Nobody's trying to catch a sore throat

serious i lost 35 lbs in about 3-4 months, so its not difficult just have to be motivated enough to START..

starting is the hardest part....then youll see the scale going down every week...feelsgoodman
Yeah I was about 237 21 months ago, and now I'm around 186. Love the way my clothes fit.  The first 20 pounds were the easiest, now it's a lifetime of working hard.

Jacket fits me just fine.It could be the angle and the fact that I have my arm raised and fully extended to hold the camera, thanks for your input.
 
Stickholm - it's a canon 40d bro.

Maldonado - Jcrew has about 5 different DBs these are the only leather I believe, the rest are suede, but like someone mentioned earlier the tip is a bit squared off, so my next DB is gonna ^^^be Clarks, thanks for the info!..I'll definitely look out for the ones you mentioned!...I also want a grey pair..lol

DamnTHOSE - I know what you mean about only rocking sweats and jays!...lol

The most satisfying thing is that I feel way more comfortable in my own skin than I did before and I feel as I get more fit, the possibilities to a better wardrobe open up wider, we should all take care of our bodies, we only have one. I just incorporated the p90x workout along with a new diet, let's see where that goes.



As far as the scarf Nako, I got it a few years back from a street vendor...he had a bunch...I think I gave him 7$...lol

ksteezy,

What brand is that french blue jacket? Looking for a suit that color, I'm guessing it is part of a suit?
