Yes, friends, I know this would be better with gray slacks. But I can't always pair this jacket with gray slacks, so cut me some ... you know ... slack. (Poofy PS is for acrid, by request.)

Interesting, thanks. And yes, you are correct that I really don't know a lot about US style norms. A lot of things that are thought of as 'traditional' or 'indigenous' in any culture have external origins so it doesn't surprise me.
These are exactly the type of shoe that Flusser is talking: these are Peals for Brooks, the pair are deadstock 1960s, unworn:

Now imagine plain, navy #1 sack on top of that, striped tie with the stripes slanted in a way opposite of most English club ties, and a white oxford shirt with a button down collar. A look comfortable for few, and anathama to many.

Please tell me you were wearing the hoodie on top of your suit for the protest yesterday and not as a fashion statement

It surely was a statement but it had nothing to do with fashion. And yes this was at the protest yesterday.

I am being facetious. I work right in Union Square. Ugh, the thick of things, atm.


Oh good. I thought maybe you were getting your news from Fox ;)
