ToJ KMW Buttero. Leather is starting to come to life. Finally got some decent boots. btw that's not wax in my hair, just got out of the shower and it's still wet.

And your stance makes you look like you are trying to impersonate the terminator.
Nice pieces though.

do you think i just need to tuck the jeans better or are the boots not high enough to warrant a tuck?

Yup. Just needs tweaks because every piece is sick. Jeans are not tight enough for tuck.

yo just wanna check whether boot tuck is working this time, with jeans tucked in better. I think it looks fine but it's pretty hard to be objective about these things.

The KMWs are rockers, which is about as slim a fit as i can go unless i'm to get some of those N&F with elastane in them. or i guess i could taper below the knee.

Still looks off imo.

 

[Rolfi]

no hate but that look just really blows- what's wrong with just not tucking the jeans? are you that desperate to show off your boots?

also every boot-tuck i've seen that worked never had the boots laced up all the way

@ Hendrix

The shaft is probably not wide enough and they're laced too tight and all the way up ( if my eyes aren't deceiving me ), what makes it even more difficult to pull off the tucked look properly. Rather small-framed/slim boots like those Butteros look better if they're only semi-tucked and loosely laced, IMO. The look you obviously aim at, on the other hand, looks better with slightly chunkier boots with a wider shaft...

PS: There's no reason for concern. The tuck-success-rate is less than 10%...

boot tucks are dumb and I have no idea why everyone wants to do it

Yeah. I also think it's because the shaft isn't long enough to warrant a full tuck. Been having a look at Nil's fit which is like the only one i've seen which just look right straight away. The longer and wider shaft looks good. Plus the fact that he's like 6'4".

meh. it looks good if you pull it off. if you have to ask questions and are really unsure about it, it's probably not working. aren't really rules to it. just one of those things that sometimes looks good and most of the time doesn't
