Looks like a regular moto jacket, it'll depends on the quality, fit and price.

tried these trousers on a while back at lanvin and fell in love but couldn't justify the $500 price tag. found them for nearly half off though.. not sure if i should or shouldnt. even though they're purple, its really really dark and the material is so soft and comfortable.

Then why not?

because $250 is still a lot of money for a pair of purple chinos.

edit: i should also say, i'm in love with the cut and fabric. i'm not sure how i would make the color work or if its too fashioney/flamboyant.

purple is the best colour, and that dark purple isn't obnoxious at all and looks great at night.

If they fit you well and you can justify the price, do it.

Swiss,
Sneakers are good. Buy if the price is right.
Don't like the hoodie. Weird cut.
Jeans could be cool but would be pretty damn hard to pull off. You could also probably only wear them a couple weeks from now.

Well you said you love everything about it and couldn't afford at retail before but now that it's 50% off, it sounds like you could spare a few bucks for it so I say go for it. I mean 50% off for Lanvin isn't bad and it's up to you if you want to risk not getting it by waiting for the discount to get bigger but again if you love it, then get it.

yes it's a pretty basic regular moto jacket, still impossible to find a good looking one for less than 300 $ where I live(which already is far beyond my budget right now)

it's uniqlo(so no real leather, but the fake leather still looks rather nice), 80 bucks, according to the website measurements a small one should fit real nice

Uniqlo pleather feels terrible.

^brother has one (has since graduated to toj), for 80$ you can't do much better

Style looks good, I'm sure everyone will say save up for a real leather but you're in HS so I say kop away. Disclaimer: Have not felt much pleather in my day.

Surprised no one has recommended TOJ given his $300 budget. "If you can just stretch your budget a little bit..."

Go for it man, will give you something to rotate with that soulland varsity.

Is it too boring and minimal?

Should look something like this worn but with hidden placket.

Obviously I hope to get a TOJ in the future, but still in school with no job so will take quite a while before I get a real one
