This spezz thing and overall italian obsession are so tired can't these dudes sit around and think of something else or perhaps nothing at all instead of prancing around with their hands in their jacket pockets trying to act hard. **** doesn't even look comfortable just awkward as **** with few exceptions.

I don't understand the point of fleece blazers. Blazer, cool. Fleece, cool. But combined?

Already spoken on spez on last page. So overdone.

Spez is supposed to be natural and evolutionary.

Honestly think that well crafted basics does better in suiting.

Get a slim cut worked out, settle on some personalized details and find some dope fabrics to work with. Same as shirting - unless your pursuing something for cut, which most arent.

Lovin that my style is pretty stealth.

Oh yeah.

**** boat shoes.

Also cannot decide between bless hoodcoat and prorsum peacoat. Why is winter so expensive



Bless did the hoodcoat in cashmere? I know they did cotton, and mine is wool.

I'm not even sure what prorsum coat you're referring to but I'd say go for the bless, it's fantastic.

Never enough talk about spezz, had to bring up the hand in jackets thing.

Bless did not do cashmere as far as I know, what size is yours? I may need xxl in wool as the xl may be too small per their sizing.

Mine is XXL, they seem to fit about 2 sizes small (season no31). I'm usually a L/50.

I think I have a desert boot fetish.

I hate the crew-neck-tshirt-under-vneck-sweater look.

Sometimes when I buy beer, I think about its equivalent in clothing prices, e.g., for the $90 I've paid for beer over the last two months, I could have had another pair of desert boots.
