Reedo, I found you some shoes: direct your attention to the non-baller sneaker thread :D

This is actually more how I dress most days:

EDIT: Ignore my goofy ass monkey face


Reedo, I feel like this has come up before, but how do you feel about some slightly roomier jeans? Chunky sweater + painted on APCs looks a little funny.

Slowing coming to the conclusion that I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. Therefore, this post will have several fits all featuring the same w+h OCBD and Buttero boots. Looking for feedback to see what (if anything is working) and what parts of the silhouette need work.

1. APC NS w/o tuck

2. APC NS w/ tuck (yes, ******** up and wore a black belt with brown boots, my bad)

2a. APC NS w/ tuck and blazer.

3. Shades of Grey tweed trouser w/o tuck

4. Shades of Grey tweed trouser w/ tuck

5. BB twill Milano fit trousers

5a. BB twill Milano fit Trousers w/ Blazer

6. Filson whipcord pant

Just for comic relief, this photo showcased "zombie eyes" better than any of the others.

1) Boots are awesome, nice pick up
2) I think the shirt needs work. Honestly, it looks pretty thin and formless for an oxford shirt. I think Gitman would be perfect for you since it's thicker with a nice but not too slim shape, but if that's isn't an option get the body tailored so there isn't so much free fabric.
3) Wear your pants lower. The proportions are off right now.

Overall, I like the white/grey/brown look the best!

These are actually W+H and I just got em, so they'll stretch out quite a bit I'm assuming. Ya, I understand the critique that my fits appear imbalanced...

I think the white shirt is the biggest offender in all of the above fits.... In the two fits where you have your shirt tucked in, it looks like your pants are pulled too high up. Proportions seem off somehow.... With all that said, combination strictly of boots and each of those pants looks good.

FWIW, I've been trying to post this for 15 minutes while the submit button refused to do anything other than scroll to the top of the page. Has anyone seen this? Annoying as ****....

I could not agree more, brother.
Reedobandito has NO TASTE. His fits are always a helter-skelter of mismatched textures, colours, fits, shapes, cuts, thicknesses....if it exists, it's mismatched in a Reedo fit. Even the angles of the photos are haywire. There is not a straight line, period...let alone a simple cut or colour. Looking at a Reedo fit is a disturbing and disorienting experience. I always have to quickly turn away from the screen, blink vigorously several times, and make sure I am not accidentally on acid. Even if you tried to be dystopic, you couldn't outdo Reedobandito...
He is beyond cure and I have given up.

after looking over your pictures again i feel tucking your shirt in looks better (more clean look) but you definitely need to pull them down a bit and wear a nice belt.
