All-around win. You just taught me how to wear a check-suit without upsetting my superiors. Tasteful and CBD. Thanks.

Lol, on my thumbs up for this I just suggested shortening the pants - I obviously meant lengthening.

Haha, gotcha. Yeah, I have other trousers that are this long and they work all right, but I think it works better with a heavier fabric that drapes better. This is a pretty light cloth that tends to flop around more when there's not enough length to keep it on the shoe.

Your plastic arm covering looks so cool man. Is it a full body suit. You could probably have used your own initials on it though.

Is this quite the fashionable thing to wear where your'e from?

Deets Please??

Interesting mix of outfits over the past few pages; some really wonderful fits, some really dreadful ones. I suppose that's always the case in this thread, but coming back to a large number of posts to read in one go really drove the point home, One outfit I liked a lot that didn't get as much postiive feedback as I though it should was David Reeves outfit. Not only is the fit great, I thought the shade of blue for the tie worked wonderfully with the shade of grey for the suit:

Outfits from yesterday & today.

Holdfast,the outfit on the left looks great ( not sold on the shoes though). The other outfit though - it is just too much. The suit is a statement in itself. With the red tn it is over the top. That is just my humble opinion of course..

i like the casual outfit on the left. that windowpane on the right is just WAY too bold to be paired with a red turtleneck.

Digging the pents on the left. You might not ever want to wear the outfit on the right ever again (I dont mean that in a rude way).
