Thank you!

Agree, should of bought it when I was interested. I love the pants and the cut is so good and yea putting them on is not the best, makes me feel like ****** is huge. I want to wear them around the house they're so comfortable but I'm a slob and will probably get food on them [COLOR=545454]—[/COLOR] so I don't.



There was a size 7 available. I was thinking about it. I have the 6 and its a tad tight so maybe the 7 would fit better. Too late now :embar:

Well, when I see people complain about SF, they either mention how sycophantic the brand threads are (which, okay, fair enough), or they mention the drama. When they mention the drama, your name invariably comes up. But, dude, seriously, you're a self-described grown man bragging about trolling people on the internet. Do you really see no problem with that?


who are you, you have 6 posts that don't really contribute much.

First attempt at trying to make this blazer work. Got some feedback from friends, but could use more.

@einstine Man the grey pressure jacket would look so sick with that fit +/- shirt tuck. How do you like the exhausts. Ive been living in them but i wish the waist was elasticised so they were easier to get on

Sick jacket. Doesn't work at all with the earthy tones of everything else. Try it with a more austere getup next time-- bold colors, high contrast, etc. Or just a white shirt, black pants, black shoes if you're feeling lazy

Thanks! High contrast was one of the pieces of feedback I had received elsewhere as well. Off white pants. I had debated double-rugging it with the schneider turk cardigan underneath as well and black pants/black boots.

Edit: Thanks as well ghostface. That's actually the other advice I had gotten... white button up and navy pants. Will shorten the sleeves.. no buttons so easy to do. I was also wondering if a brown panted fit might have been made to work. The last piece of advice was grey jacket/coat with the rest of the outfit. That's probably be normally what I'd rock.

i agree with b!cd about the colors/textures not working with everything else. maybe try it with a white button-up shirt (tucked in), navy wool dress pants, and black footwear with a bit of shine. (and shorten the sleeves a bit.)

Had to do double take at Hawaiian Vacation Rais. All jokes aside though, that is awesome

Thanks, yea the shirt is a bit of an outlier in my wardrobe. Was $2 at a second hand shop and I dyed it (was black and white before).

I think the suggestions already garnered are good. I think you'd probably get away with those trousers if you simply changed the shirt for a white one and swapped the footwear for black polished derbies. I'd be tempted to have a play with going really bold too - red/burgundy trousers, white shirt and black shoes would be pretty full-on but might work well. Nice piece anyway :)
