think it's definitely too much in brown

that's a pretty low-key tweed, i like the navy too. personally i don't think i would get much use out of a jacket that weight but go for it if you will.

i want his fascist haircut too

lol didn't see that, yeah pls. don't look like that guy if you buy the jacket.

i like the brown

i like this too http://www.jpressonline.com/tweed-shirt-jacket-green-mix/ although $$

i think the brown is better than the blue

I mean if you're going to buy a tweed jacket, get the one that looks tweedy. the blue one seems more bland to me.

i would agree for a sportcoat, but this is outerwear and i feel like the navy is a little more versatile.

i can't wear a light brown tweed jacket because my entire head is pink/orange/light brown and i'd look silly

Band of Outsiders navy blazer made of a breathable nylon that supposedly you can crunch into a ball and it will not wrinkle

why would you crunch your blazer into a ball?

It's for those times you need to go to a business meeting in your suit straight off the plane, then change into the blazer for your harvard club event.

oh right, those times

i am going to the j press store, wish me luck

aw man, j press making virtual bootlegs in comedy fabric choices? say it ain't so.

maybe you can get BLØG as your monogram

Man, I find those bags super prissy-looking. They remind me of when I would take the train home from college and switch at Trenton, and you'd be able to spot the Princeton kids because of their immaculate department-store-catalog-looking clothes.

dont beat me up

^ so many lols

haha

calling that specific look "normcore" is extremely revealing

bahaha this guy

seems i'm guilty of this.. for my birthday i asked my mom to get me "a couple of shirts that look like what you'd buy for dad" from eddie bauer

I think this is what I was shooting for in the past when I was trying to nail down seinfeld-as-inspiration

dev hynes is definitely too 'core' for 'norm' though!

also reminds me of Dunham's "kewl dad" in that Girls episode. Maybe she was onto something.

Of course like every ironical adoption of "regular amurican" style it has to be done with subtle touches to make sure you don't actually mistake the person for a regular amurican

there's def a big casual/new balance sneakers/track pants thing going on w/art people, but I don't think it's the same as a.) what someone like dev is doing or b.) what some of the late 80's weekend dad aesthetic folks are doing

and there's just not a lot of distance between the latter two things and just the fashion revival cycle doing what it does

lotta dudes in dem buttery brown leather bomber jackets these days

would love to see a hipster go all out with this look

p sure its happening rn but you know better attention to detail

first i was thinking the tneck is maybe a bridge too far but then like naah

ive been trying to find a good turtleneck to wear under a jacket for about a year now

so does anyone know where i can find a good turtleneck to wear under a jacket?

in my neighborhood you're more likely to see an actual 45-yr-old unironically dressed like that than a hipster on the cutting edge

i bet lamp knows xp

i think i first approximated this look as 'chandler from friends ca. 1997' but was excited to see how early 90s it had gotten lately. but calling it 'normcore' is just n/l

the only normcore look I rock is

the day i see a stylish young person rocking a mock tn is when i will know im truly old

the only turtleneck i own is a 90s black eddie bauer i found at value village that is appealingly boxy. various downtown workwear brands are making turtlenecks again if my instagram is anything to go by tho so you can probably find one with a contemp fit p easy

i have a friend who is actively trying to bring the mock neck back. it works, i guess. i dont understand fashion
