On Moo's latest fit, the texture of the tie and the sport coat are great. I would've like to have seen slacks instead of chinos, but I think the color is fine. My only real complaint is that the socks, and I'm sure this isn't the case it just looks like it, appear like white gym socks.

Thanks everyone

saelan - haha no, never been told I look like David Byrne (although I spotted him hanging out at the John Dory Oyster Bar last night)

jwied - aside from what's already been said about the Baron Wells shirts (slim-ish and short) they're a great size and shape for wearing untucked like that, and on sale the price is right. After a hot machine wash and dry the sleeves on that one ended up a little short, but not on my heavier oxford one. They have some weird details though, the buttons are nice deadstock ones or something, but they're all the same size, even the collar ones and the ones on the forearm, and the second to top button is very high up as you can see, but that can be good or bad depending on what you're going for

Yeah for sure, I'm a 37 chest or so to give you an idea of how the small fits me. Just make sure you get them on sale since they seem to go down so much

I actually like Moo's color combination and think it works really well.

I do agree the socks are bad and the weak part of the fit.

Could it be better if the pants were slacks rather than chinos? Maybe -- marginally. I still think it works either way.
