eason, not a fan of that suit, sorry :( you should save up more and buy something from the armoury.


About the bottom of the pants, it's because I didn't tie my shoes and just tucked the laces- thus the pants were getting stuck. I will get a picture from a better angle later and then we can check the suit again. It might be possible to take the jacket in a bit more on the sides but then I'd have no room at all, it really gave me an hourglass shape.

yeah I'd suggest better angle shot and also one motion shot to really gauge it; your fit looks like how most uniqlo fits me which is also why I don't buy uniqlo anymore for suiting

the biggest issue is that the jacket is just too short and the button stance is too high - for me those two things are just killer.

I'd replace the white tee with something more interesting and loosen your straps so you can tuck the ribbing into your shoes. Otherwise, shoes and pants look good together.
I think I would like it with a longer black tee with a lower neck, even

MoK it is unsettling how natural and comfortable you look in your clothes. You need to strike robot pose, look shamefully at the ground, style yourself in a way you would never actually do in public, then matrix out your face. Done

LOL cheers :) I'm still working on dropping the frown
MoK, I've said this before but I'll say it again: I want to live where you live, it looks goddamn excellent

I like it, but on the negative side there's no decent clothes shops for miles and tailors are non-existent.
MoK: I like your new haircut.

The barber varies the style fractionally depending on how many beers he's had and whether he can find the right clipper combs ;)
Rather short, Eason. (I'm an old guy.) You wanted it that way?

Maybe a higher photo point might reduce the visual length of the jacket, but I agree it does look rather short (also an old guy).

Too small to my eyes

I think it may look small to everyone because you have that zip up hoodie on underneather it. Is there any pull when you button it up, fuji?

Never mind I'm returning it. I just can't wear a varisty jacket with a huge S on the front. Just doesn't go with my clothes.

The suit doesnt look all that bad, just a bit boxy and maybe the arms should be slimmer. I am okay with the jacket length, lapel size, button placement, & hem width on pants, but those MC details are hotly debated and opinions will differ.
