^Looks good! Don't let these guys talk you out of wearing the Sugar Canes, though What's the denim?
If I were to nitpick, coat sleeves look like they might be a little short.

I agree about the sleeves. Not much to be done about that though I'm afraid. These are JB x Momotaro 0701 which I'm gradually giving some more wear, don't worry though; the canes still get the most wear.

The scarf is warm though, NOBD

Agreed. That scarf and the way it's tied... way too dainty for a military coat.

Unshaven, feeling scruffy, decidedly casual day...

BTW, here's something to instill a deep sense of dread into every reader of this thread: I bought a new pair of jeans.

I really should learn not to return to that particular well, given how my previous attempts have gone, but having a bit of time to kill in town this lunchtime, I popped into the Levi shop, took the advice of the guy at the counter, and ended up getting a pair of 511s. I think a couple of guys in this thread (Dig & someone else IIRC) suggested them anyway, so I take it as a good sign that the fellow in the shop independently reached the same conclusion. I'll pick them up from hemming tomorrow, so I might wear them on Friday or Saturday. Anyway, it's a relatively low-cost experiment, so worth a go. We'll see whatever level of opprobrium they raise here soon.

I like the contrast between Crat's jacket and scarf. So there's that.

Looking forward to seeing them, doc.

Cool look, MoL. I might go with a slimmer fit but it looks good.
