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

i ended up getting my normal size in the relaxed fit cut

i wonder if i would try to get it pretty fitted just to blunt the normcore factor a little

yea you might be right

lol xp

get it tailored imo

so exclusive

guys i bought the brown pattern one. we'll see what happens when it comes. i don't really know if i can pull it off, but in general i think "old back-to-the-land new englander" is something that has been a positive influence on my life so we'll see

me too

okay lol that patagonia brown fleece pullover came today and it just does not work

my wife looked at me and she's like "whaaaaaat?"

Lol

another day maybe, feel like i need a few more gray hairs for it to work with that look i am wanting

Bought a few suits intending to keep one and return the others. Found I actually liked the non trim cut better, as I suspected I would. Looks more natural and relaxed to me, less fussy.

sorry the patagonia didn't work out.

in other recent delivery news the leather on the quoddys is so immaculate i just keep compulsively wiping it off to keep the perfect shine. i need to start carrying a soft cloth around like when drake was in the courtside seats at the raps game using a lint roller.

re: sizing w/ that fleece though i definitely felt larger was better - i ordered a few sizes to try on and the appropriately sized one for me (S) gave off major 'preppy kid trying to be goofy' vibes. patagonia is, let's face it, loved well by rich kids and with a nicely fitting garish fleece i felt like some spoiled CT college kid on a ski trip. with a M or L the new england hippie curmudgeon fibe was better revealed

feeling that bison sweater cad. sneakers too. they actually go well together but maybe just a little too coordinated

yeah you'd need navy chinos or something to wear both together. the sneakers are staying packed away until we emerge from the frozen hell of winter of course.

I'll have to post a pic of my bison sweater some time. It was a hand me down from an old man I later found out stole from my grandma. He's dead now, my grandmas alive and I have a sweet sweater.

lagoon which patagonia fleece did you order

Looks like someone is trying to suck up to a certain ILH mod

haha awesome, i bet you can pull it off though

btw very excited about variety of levi's jeans and pants i ordered, just tried on a few last night and they are great. i was really looking for something not baggy in any way but also not slim fit and these are like the perfect fit for me

which ones do u like

514s were great, also i needed a new pair of chinos and i was pleased w/ levi's, those fit well too. haven't tried on the 501s, 504s, 505s. 514 corduroys were also great

London Fog parka turned out a little too big and roomy and un-tailored looking, but I kept it because it happened to get cold as FUCK the day after it arrived and I didn't have a better coat. Kind of regret not getting the Spiewak, which presumably would have been more tailored.

I need folks to recommend a good winter hat now, all I have is this exceedingly stupid-looking North Face beanie that I bought on the verge of a storm last year because there weren't many options. I was thinking maybe a cap with earflaps.

big and roomy is the approp shape for ones parka btw

Yeah, it's also just a little long for me though I guess, just a hair too much on the sack side. If it were shorter I probably wouldn't otherwise mind the size.

totally agree re: big and roomy parkas, xp. embrace it man alive! i'm not a huge fan of more tailored parkas
