Hay, now I'm throwin' stones in glass houses here, but your pics are always so dark I can't tell what the hell is going on. This could be interesting or not. Looks perfectly pedestrian here. Work on the lighting. Lord knows I need to.

No tie without a jacket.

That's my general rule, too, but I think a sweater can often stand in for a jacket.

Needs to be a rather chunky knit, though, otherwise it just kinda crumples on the floor.

Looks great. I plan to show my tailor this image when I get my pants altered next week. She always balks when I explain the cuffs and length. Maybe it's the language barrier or maybe she's just used to a pool of pants around her client's ankles

Is that about 2.25"?

Yeah, tailors get freaked out by the SF-approved 2" cuff. These are 1-3/4":

Good luck, Patrick! Don't forget to post pics when it's done.

But, it's the sun...

^ Please turn sun off prior to snapping fit pic.

(Remember to turn sun back on after snapping pic.)

Pic #2 gets a serious ****-yeah from me. If the hat weren't so close to (but different from) the jacket, pic #1 would've done the same. Inspiration ensemble.

Quality. Like the xmas cheer here. Jacket's got some weirdness going on around the waist, my guess is the sweater. I almost never button up if I'm wearing a sweater under a jacket, just seems wrong.

Those pants are crazy! I think a white ps is in order though.

Thx fellas. hats much bluer irl, no time for outdoor pics as it was another trip day to Nara, and I was exhausted at the end of the day. Jacket was a bit skewed as well, decided not to go PS as I pretty much wore it as an overcoat today, the Nara offices were hot as hell, and if you've ever been in a NYC Public School in the winter, if you have heat, you have it in spades...even the sweater was a bit much temp wise for me. Though I suppose Bobby Manc pulls off the white PS in his overcoat....

Thanks kg. Appreciate the info. Note, I tried measuring the heel of your shoe on my monitor for scale and compared it to the cuff. Clearly my math was off
