Which pants you think are better?

View attachment 1106609
I think the 1st ones, on the left plays better with the jacket, but not very well with the shirt. (and the trousers seem too large). The other pair (dark blue? dark grey?) are fine with the shirt, not so happy the ensemble with the jacket. My opinion, of course, not more.
Cheers

Vic

(Just let me say that in my iPad, the jacket looks brown, so my answer depends on that)

My friend, your suit is very my kind. Just great.
As for the rest, everything seems to play too well together, as usual. Always a pleasure to see how you care about our look, a special sign of your self respect.
Cheers

@Roy Al ... I really like how you play with blues and browns and with the checks of the suit and of the tie.
They recall each another in a subtle way and are complemented by the socks (much sober than your usual) and the shoes.
I'm definitely jealous of this combination!

The suit of @Roy Al put me a question about so different in many ways, the things that most of the members of the forum use to wear, and what we see in the Pitti week. Kind a most formal here, with some red lines that some won’t dare to pass, and “too much going on” on the ensembles we see at Italy, some great, some would never cross my mind to look like.
I would like to have some opinions about this two different ways to see menswear.
Knowing that most of the guys here are from USA, and most of the people going to Pitti is European, do you think that are very different ways to look to what a man should wear?

(Let me say that I refer to @Roy Al, because I think most of the people of Pitti, would, without any doubt, use his great suit)

View attachment 1106788 View attachment 1106788 The real deal, is to get good stuff with less money. That’s what the soldes are for. In the other hand, when soldes are running, one’s think that could have wait some weeks to buy
that suit or those shoes. I hate soldes
