ils thread for general menswear and men's clothing ish

oh you were talking to caek

but i did say "skinny jnco"

I'm fine with contrast stitching in small doses, but as soon as you get super complex patterns on the back pockets I'm out

those look almost like a g-star design on DDL, but they may have moved on completely by now

ha i meant to post that pic on the str8 fire kix thread!

two separate jnco conversations today!

i guess true religion is the denim brand most associated with (white) contrast stitching

truly we are living in a jnco world

a sweater or a sweatshirt?

man ive noticed this calling sweatshirts sweaters situation increasing recently and just have to say what the heckin hell

sweaters are knitwear, sweatshirts are made from a cotton and/or acrylic jersey type fabric

like u know what sweatpants are right, u dont call them sweaterpants im assuming

u draws 2 tight

another poster who doesnt know what a damn sweater is i see

technically jersey is knit too tho

:-p

do we have to do we really have to use the microscope

surely no one under age 55 is saying this. sounds like such a mom thing

the millennials are saying it, they dont care if society lives or dies

not totally kidding here, if no one actually wears sweaters anymore, then maybe it makes sense to use it in place of sweatshirt rather than lose it

also I don't believe you because it's not Earl Sweater

ppl wear sweaters! i just recommended a reasonably priced lambswool sweater from the major retailer uniqlo

I saw "people don't wear sweaters" and thought, damn, are you denying caek everything in this world

people wear all kinds of sweaters, some over dress shirts

and a fine specimen it was! a fine sweater indeed xp

i think the velva sheen classic crew neck sweatshirt is nicer than the ball park and its like 60% of the price. i own one in each of black, navy and heather grey

this is my style for s/s 18:

this thread is very confusing to me tho

https://i.imgur.com/DzbP5LN.png

i have this sweatshirt except it doesnt say usa on it and its prob technically a different sweatshirt

thats a cool sweatshirt but maybe replace the word COLORADO (only medium) with ONLINE (very good)

COLORADO
ONLINE
UNIVERSITY
WEED

i think ive recommended them like 25 times itt but alternative apparel makes a good crewneck sweatshirt called "the champ" that u cn get for like $25

i bought a couple of those velva sheen ones mentioned by lamp at the very same time i bought my real mccoys sweatshirts and they were really, really nice! i kept the mccoys and returned the velva sheens though because i thought the mccoys were more substantial and the fit was more flattering to me (boxier)

btw that was eight years ago, people still ask me if my mccoys sweatshirts are new when i wear them.

i wear alternative apparel sweatshirts at home (thank u joe)

woody > myers although I can't figure out what's even going on with those pants. 12" fly?

i believe "jnco" is what's going on with those trousers

also "jnkie" quite possibly

i like woody's shirt ok but would prefer white buttons + a more restrained collar and would not unbutton so much

urine stain nagl tho

do double breasted suits ever work?

yes but they definitely make a statement

is that steven weber over woody's shoulder?

Failing at oxford bags is what’s happening. This is how they work

Id love wider legged trouser, maybe not that wide, to come back into fashion, especially for suit. I’m sick of tapered leg and the wide leg can be a good look.

wow ... learned something today

i like a wide leg but not a wide bottom/cuff/hem

meyers' suit not double breasted?

oh you're right

baggier pleated pants came back into fashion e.g. https://www.armani.com/us/armanicom/emporio-armani/pleated-prince-of-wales-wool-trousers_cod13076012iw.html

Would wear those trousers, jacket not so much.

ws tailor

i bought 8 s/s linen shirts from jcrew factory during a sale that was insane even for them (50% and BOGOF offers stacked). came out to $12/shirt.

i sent two back. they refunded the full price for the two shirts, so it's worked out so that i got six shirts for free.

that's my menswear story for spring/summer 2018.

i want to rock the pleated pants with billowy shirt look like 80s armani or david sylvian but everything's so slim and not pleated now. aside from thrifting which i have no patience for does anyone know where i can find that sort of stuff?

ha just saw the armani pants a few posts ago. i'm thinking more like this http://www.thegroundmag.com/wp-content/uploads/Giorgio-Armani_630.jpg

uh caek did you not alert j crew to the mistake?

man I was feeling that vibe recently, wore these pretty full vintage polo pleated khakis w/cuffs, some loafers, and a denim shirt with some kind of slouchy 80's look in mind.

caught myself in the mirror when I was out and I totally looked like

minus the tie.

verrrry dangerous ground
