ils thread for general menswear and men's clothing ish

the camo sweats are okay. i have a camo scarf but that's prob as far as i'd go, for 90s/bad dj fashion reasons.

black is awesome, hating black is wrong.

long sleeve white shirts with a black blazer

me this wk

feeling the vibe for loose untucked wide vertical awning stripe shirts but spidey sense also tingling that it's about to get cliche ss15 mnstrm real quick idk

i have a junglist yellow camo coat and i'm not afraid to say i love it.

i got a kind of bucket hat guys i'm wearing it right now

let's all go to a 90s music festival

you'll need doglatin's yellow camo coat

i got that black longshirt from bureau in the end - it is amazing i am wearing it right now

if you wear an anorak you will look like a member of animal collective

u will look like an animal collector

anoraks r cool fuiud

If that is an anorak then I disagree

Yea I did not dig that anorak fwiw

spring is hitting. time to buy 12 white short sleeve button downs, up my tshirt game, and get some suiting in light gray

im w/ u vahid, great anorak

hi fives

I'd be happy with nothing but black short-sleeve linen button-downs, with sweaters to put on them in the winter.

linen gives me hives

fyi

short sleeve button downs could be like a religion i feel

not sure why but i have never found a short sleeve button down that worked for me

i am 5'7" and super skinny, they all seem too baggy or too tight

i love linen though, i have a few nice linen shirts i wear to work in the summer and it is 80 degrees in boston today so im wearing one right now

yea they are tricky as fuck

someone on ILX i think gave me the tip that if it's a sleeve issue, you can casually roll up the sleeve which makes the arms less baggy at least

hey what's a good source for solid-color pocket tees? for years i've been buying jcrew's broken in pocket tees but i am not into the colors this year, so many pastels, 5 of which are basically the same color https://www.jcrew.com/mens_special_sizes/extrasmall/polostees/PRDOVR~72977/72977.jsp

i looked american apparel but tbh i dont really trust them, it's been a while though since i tried on anything from them. 8-10 years ago i gave them a chance and found all of their shit to fit very poorly, have they improved?

uniqlo has some good colors but only in the basic tee, no pocket.

The gap?

Is it called gap or the gap?

lol not sure, yea i tried a few there but was not happy, the cotton seemed very heavy

it's called "thigh gap" iirc

any tips on brown boots i can wear to work?

I guess it depends on what your job is.

semi-professional, but creative ... i just never know where to find good shoes

yeah how formal are we talking? and ankle boots or boots boots

chuckas are v wearable but may not be smart enough for you:

smarter chuckas and more weather proof if it rains where you are, but more $

i'm kind of thinking ankle boots for more flexibility. my usual extent of fancy is like CK fancy. definitely not like a brown sports boot. but not $200 either.

o those are both nice thx

i really like the desert treks

guys i've been really digging...... benetton

i now own three v-neck t-shirts from them in exactly the same style, different colors. american apparel was like the new benetton, and now benetton is the new benetton.

i think i must have some kind of pathological affectation for once imperial european fashion brands that are seriously on the skids

tretorn is my other lodestar

my family used to own a bunch of bennetton stores, i *love* their clothes but i thought they were mostly extinct for men? seriously had some great fashions though

btw flopson your gramps is styling in that pic

sorry *benetton spl

do u have any old crewneck sweatshirts to donate 2 me thank u in advance

omg i WISH. those were my serious fav. my dad used to wear them all the time RIP
