UNIFORM LA CHILLICOTHE WORK JACKET Drop, going on right now.
Uniform LA's Chillicothe Work Jacket is an elevated take on the classic Detroit Work Jacket. Made of ultra-premium 14-ounce Japanese canvas, it has been meticulously washed and hand distressed to replicate vintage workwear that’s been worn for years, and available in three colors.
This just dropped today. If you missed out on the preorder, there are some sizes left, but they won't be around for long. Check out the remaining stock here
Good luck!.

Thus, enter pretension and the gent who insists on making obvious statements regarding his material worth via his clothing. He has no style... "Stealth wealth" is a joke.
I don't follow this. The whole idea of 'stealth wealth' is not to make a conspicuous display of worth.

I don't follow this. The whole idea of 'stealth wealth' is not to make a conspicuous display of worth. As for image polluting fashion, I think this is factually incorrect. There was never a time when fashion was innocent and pure, and then got debased. Clothing has always indicated social and economic status -- not just in our society, but in every society. I'd go so far as to say that this is clothing's primary function, beyond aiding survival. Maybe you think clothing should be pure art, but that's not the way it is or ever has been.
This thread should be moved to the Men's Forum. It would be interesting to see how the opinions change when a Brioni suit versus a 3 day suit broker special or a Franck Muller versus a timex knock off are used as part of ones argument.
I admit that I'm coming at this from a position of relative ignorance, but is that really the case? I don't doubt there are people who would maintain that the standards of "quality" in MC are more objective. But from my sporadic observations, it doesn't seem that there's that much difference between discussions of the quality of denim and workmanship in, say, Dior v. 5EP jeans and discussions of the quality of materials and workmanship in, say, Kiton v. Canali suits. It seems to me that in both areas different people value differently the mix of relatively "objective" factors (quality of denim or wool, amount/quality of detail/handwork, durability, etc.) and much more subjective factors (cut/styling, color/patterns, etc.) Certainly even within the MC "community" you'll find substantial disagreement about the value and importance of buying only fully-canvassed jackets or whether functional buttonholes are a mark of "quality".
