ils thread for general menswear and men's clothing ish

not great at describing, but there's a kind of unstructured black suit senior-graphic-designer-from-the-1990s look that I quite like, but I suspect caek's point about needing good fabric is crucial to it working (and it's probably never for me because as per upthread, celtic complexion).

Leather is a great fabric for black for sure

Once you gets get JAMC swag you'lll look alright in black https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EgB__YratE

im constantly tempted to burn my wardrobe and rebuild it entirely in black

in honor of this thread i am wearing black jeans, navy sneakers, brown belt today

i wear brown birkenstocks w/ my black jeans everyday, dgaf

i feel kinda liberated tbh but i work at a "design school" so everyone here is either very consciously assembled or very consciously not

haha yea i work in academia and most people are very much not consciously assembled

I'm wearing a shirt with a navy/black/grey grid pattern

on leather jackets, asos is a good option if you don't want to spend 1k and you can't find anything good second-hand (pretty much impossible as far as i can tell, in london or online)

i got a leather bomber there last year for £150 - it's pretty good quality, seems to be wearing well.

maybe cheaper than that actually. they have good bikers too - i kind of like them but i feel if i wore a biker jacket it would signal midlife crisis (even more than the rest of my behaviour and hobbies)

good call on ASOS. yeah, so it's the style of jacket that i'm unsure about. and yeah, avoiding a MLC look is the tricky bit.

my man

I didn't have this thread bookmarked and just caught up on like a year of stuff

I just purged a bunch of old/poorly-fitting stuff from my closet. Between not being a mid-20s dude who has the body of a teenager (lol) and realizing I was buying medium shirts when very few medium shirts fit me now (got too swole, I guess, and I've always had disproportionately long arms) I am going to be doing some shopping.

I should just embrace my people and go health goth, right

by next winter this will be me

solid look

in seriousness, I did buy this shirt recently to replace another floral print one I should have thrown out years ago

Black with dark brown is like my favorite combination btw, also black with black

Will try black with navy today! I think I might have a navy tee in my closet idk it might have a pocket too

we don't have a FUN SUITS thread iirc

are they trying to illustrate the number of horizontal stripes that will make a model look fat?

guys guess who just got this fleece for $28 marked down from 145 at the polo shop inside the 34th st macys (its me) also picked up a ralph lauren overcoat 60% off on the fifth fl

blackandyellowblackandyellowblackandyellowblackandyellowblackandyellow

it's like safety yellow w/a greenish hue or more like str8 up yellow? can't tell

I can never tell if I'm one of those people with less color perception than average or more, all I know is that colors are diff for me :/

its just regular yellow but it does look a lil blown out in the photo

that black/yellow fleece makes me think of Rocky - in a good way

nice threads imo

oh damn that's a vgl

alert to hurting--the gustin italian greenline is back: https://www.weargustin.com/store/1620

i like my pair quite a bit.

cad how's the fit on gustins?

the slim fit seems good, nice normal fit, i think they've got the skinny fit if you want something more aggro but for most ppl the slim fit should work well. i had no desire to tweak the legs or taper or anything, just needed hemming. this fabric in particular is so light and soft it stretched in the waist after just 3-4 wears so def worth trying to find a size that will be snug on you initially. heavier denim may vary in that department.

Nice

You wanna give me a referral link brah

That reminds me I was totally supposed to buy a non triangle sweatshirt from lag =-O

i still have it totally forgot to bring it to the game!

those awful ties at the top of this thread, I really should make use of the bookmark function

holy mother of god this red chambray fabric is blowing my mind

ooooh that's nice

love chambray shirts even though have become pretty ubiquitous

fuck i have like 4 or 5 of them

These Gustin clothes are really nice. I would pair the jeans and shirt any day. Do they ship to the UK?

i think so. only semi-drawback i've seen w/gustinis you're buying something that you'll get in a couple months. and my jeans were even delayed a bit beyond that because their factory got backed up.

otherwise you all should buy stuff w/my link.

we shd do one of those personal shopper box club startups and it just automatically sends u everything from this thread, billion dollar idea
