ils thread for general menswear and men's clothing ish

https://www.weargustin.com/fitguide

that is ...a very comprehensive fit guide. thanks!

yeah just to reinforce their sizing is very very different from other brands. measure everything carefully.

Good on them for what they do, but it's the reason I never ordered another pair of jeans from them -- fit is hard to figure out, then there's a long lag time, and then it's hard to return, and it's still more than I usually pay.

it's great for unexpected benificiaries! I'm wearing a pair of gustin jeans that my friend ordered but bought a size too small :)

to get back to camel coats. they are VERY popular with middle-class chinese girls studying in europe. fwiw.

yeah defintely, there are a lot of stylish chinese students about, loving those square cut cropped trousers also

I kind of like these. Not gonna, though

i want a suit made out of material like denzels

or at least that pattern but in a super light summer weight cotton

wld look so nice in my closet haha

I believe that's called Prince of Wales check

cool thank u they have one at burberry for only 2 grand

does that include pants or is it just the jacket for 2k

I have a pair of Prince of Wales trousers I got at steep discount from bonobos, they're kind of meh -- too low rise and the material is kind of thin and the stitching is weak.

you'll get prince of wales check in loads of places, suit supply, anywhere and everywhere, i've seen loads of it around last few years. dunno if you want a full suit but if it was just a jacket i saw many of those knocking about.

are you planning on being the new face of the alt-right?

were you ripped off by the primates xp

im actually more alt-alt-right

once you get that alt-right you may as well be alt-left

by choosing to buy this for your closet you've made things a lot easier on yourself re size, condition etc.

feel i cld make it even easier by just imagining its in my closet

tbf you're imagining you have a closet and not a bag of clothes

holy dammit Benetton is all online now in the US? nobody tells me this shit

fyi their tees and cardigans have been running a little long/large ime, get a size down from what you think you should get

or maybe i'm shrinking

tbf you're imagining you have a closet and not a bag of clothes

get a clothes sack in prince of wales check

im imagining being alive not a corpse aloft the briny toss

what is the prince of wales but an old leathery clothes sack

i feel like i've reached some kind of equilibrium in which i feel very satisfied with my wardrobe and i've barely bought any new clothes in a while. almost the only new things i've bought lately have been a couple very solid thrift finds. i feel like i could use a new flannel or denim shirt or two and that's all i really need for the moment

the pattern was named for the crisscross of tattoos he has all over his body

summerweight prince of wales is a great suit imo! gotta be a full suit tho, i don't think it works as a jacket-only fabric.

i've seen some nice jacket-only ones - not really my thing but i thought they looked good, i guess it can vary a bit with material.

i'd be interested in an example of that, it just seems like a pretty darn formal fabric to me. like i can't picture the pants you'd wear with it.

it's a good pantsless jacket ime

hey so i got this jacket which is otherwise perfect but... it's got this thing with, like, a raw cut? the front pockets are normal but the sleeves etc. get kind of weird after a few hours-- what the hell is this?

if you're not going to wear pants a top-notch jacket is key

as the grandson of a tailor i can tell you, you should never wear pants with any jacket, ever.

i am in need of topsiders atm

Ok v basic question: boots under $100 that stand up well to rain and deep snow but are still comfortable and non-clunky enough to walk long distances on city sidewalks and subway commute. My snow boots are p much only useful in like 6 inches plus of snow.

sadly I think the dollar figure at the beginning of your equation is where you might be getting stuck

These are $95 -- thoughts?

go for it! if they last two winters you've made out imo

timberlands are about $110

cover them in sno-seal

cover all boots in sno-seal iirc

timberlands are about $110

eh, maybe
then you get to wear timberlands

actually i think you'll find if you look on page 93729 in your copy of take ivy it very clearly states "timbs all seasons for ass kicking reasons"

recommend me some reasonably biz-caj looking timbs then

cmon man all of them count if you're allowing those sorels
