ils thread for general menswear and men's clothing ish

the leg openings of 501s are a little big imo but with the black color and they way they treat them to be soft/floppy u dont notice as much where itd prob be the opposite crispy blue ones

levis def has some nice slim cuts that my thighs/ass are too big to fit in

#humblebrag

this does sound kind of nifty tho

lol

slim-wise i recently got a pair of Lee "Luke" jeans which i'm very pleased with

these are they, i think:

i don't cuff them though, as the man in the pictures does, because for once i got a pair of jeans with legs the right length (i know!)

lol, honestly if you're not into 3 dimensional jeans shrinking chess and button flys you can just buy regular 505s in a decent color that fit okay off the rack. you can just tell people you're normcore, it'll be cool.

511s are not that slim, really. I think they are the best jeans ever created.

maybe get a tshirt that says "normcore"

511s are NOT very slim, this is true!

i was back in knoxville for the holidays and visited approx 5 department stores, none of which sold anything but straight/regular or "relaxed" fits of jeans wtf

511s are slim! They're not crustpunk slim but they're fairly slim ime

i have one pair of 511s that fit, but 90% that i have ever tried on are either way too stretchy or can't fit past my thighs.

ok so with raw denim or "shrink to fit" you don't actually ever wash them and the "shrinking" is only performed via some hot water bathtub thing or other similar trick? Just trying to get this straight, i haven't worn denim in a very long time and even in the past never wore it much

i still haven't washed my 3 sixteens, going on 2 years. prob will after this winter.

I spill too much beer on my jeans.

I got a pair of raw denim jeans a few months ago and was kinda terrified about the whole no wash thing but it's been surprisingly easy. Wearing them probably over 50% of the time, only seemed a little funky once so I hung them outside for a few hours. They are naked and famous BTW and I am suuuuuuuuper happy with them one of the best fits and quality pairs of jeans I have ever owned. Also I used to be a big time spiller but have somehow missed them with food? Also you can spot clean no problem

jcrew factory extra 40% off clearance items btw

my beautiful big blue puffy parka got stolen at a bar in houston on tour so i picked this less puffy one up at macy's. not ideal but i like the contrast of dark blue with white fur inside the hood

rip parka really sorry to hear that, what sort of monster...

i know right, in houston of all places wtf are u gonna do with a parka?

feeling the colours & design of these patagonia fuzzy sweaters. my norm family from south carolina who were visisiting over xmas were all wearing them and i was like hmmm secretly scoping them out lol

my new balances were #'d 420 lol

ya i like that fleece

it's so....carpet-like

It's 4 degrees out now so that fleece looks like a super good idea.

i had a fleece like that in high school (not patagonia, maybe land's end?), but you have to be careful with that color because i felt like i was wearing a big sheepskin coat. i liked it on the rack but i always felt self-conscious wearing it. my brother had the same thing in dark brown and it was much better

this one's a bit extreme + the white accentuates the carpetedness tbh

same

Have fun generating static electricity and getting shocked everywhere you go you normxcore bastards!!

lol

i think i am going to buy the brown native american one

with fleece i feel like a normcore move is to buy them one size bigger? fleece is supposed to be baggy imo
