    3sixteen Denim Series, Bracelets, Shirts...

     Size for the thighs. I went true to size on my 34 ST-120X shadow selvedges. I can't explain how happy I am that the thighs fit--it makes a world of difference. After a month and a half of wearing them, the waist has stretched out a little but nothing crazy.

    3sixteen Denim Series, Bracelets, Shirts...

    My shadows are a great midnight color, they can look black depending on what you're wearing. The seat of them is starting to show hints of blue...I can say it's a really awesome electric blue, pretty different from my N&F WG indigos obviously. I get tons of compliments on the shadow tapereds...

    Naked and famous denim

     Agreed. My 3Sixteens have plenty of length in the fly so I don't have to undo the top button. Having to completely undo your fly/belt isn't normal.

     They definitely won't stretch that much...either sell them or return them for a different size. Did you size down? I went TTS on my ST-120x and they fit like a dream.

     I feel like a lot of people with "athletic" builds have issues with WG's. For me personally they're okay in the thighs, dangerous on the junk.

    Naked and famous denim

     I've been wearing my WG's in a 33 (sized down one, regret that now) and I agree on the overall fit...it's just odd. There was some definite nut-pinching the first month I wore them. They're a little stretched out now which is great, but my 3Sixteen ST-120x Shadow Selvedge Tapered that I...

     Never even thought of it being unattractive--it's usually covered by my shirts anyway. Also on my pair shadow selvedge the patch is tanned so you can't really read it anyways...

    3sixteen Denim Series, Bracelets, Shirts...

    I just bought a pair of the ST-120X Shadow Selvage denim, size 34. I bought TTS on these because my N&F Weird Guys in a size 33 are VICIOUS on my crotch...honestly brutal sometimes. The 3Sixteens have a longer rise that I found perfect. I don't mind the waist stretching a little bit (I've...

    Go to bar to order drink... now what

    I usually scan what's on tap--I'm more of a beer fan more so than liquor. Guinness usually prevails. If I'm trying to milk my drink for longer...definitely a whiskey sour. Drinking those fast=hangover. Tom Collins if I'm in a nice bar where I think they can make it correctly. If I'm really...

    Should I still tip 15%?

    I tip 20% no matter what--people live off of tips, so unless they're terrible I'll give them that percentage no matter what. Same goes for cabs, my friends always wonder why I tip NYC cab drivers so much.

    Heads up on GAP Chambray shirt.

    I bought the JCrew sunfaded red chambray shirt, and while I love the shirt, the fit is a little off. I got it in a large, and the sleeves are effing huge and the body is a tad long. I have an athletic build (6'1" 185lbs.) and the sleeves were still too baggy. I wear it tucked, never untucked...

    LL Bean + Rogues Gallery = LL Bean Signature

    Great--I was looking at those polo's the other day just wondering how they'd fit. Besides the Casco Bay in Smoky Teal, I'm really digging the Saltwash Pullover in Rosewood. Something about that color pairing...

    Cutoff jean shorts?

    Cut-off cords in a khaki or green work. Cut-off blue jeans don't, in my opinion.

    The Definitive Guide to Slim Fit Shirts

    A solid staple of my button-down shirts for the past couple of years has been a Ralph Lauren Custom Fit white shirt. When I bought it, I thought it fit terribly (but never returned it) but since then I've filled out quite a bit and really love the fit...not too long or anything, sleeves are cut...

    Seeing undershirt under white dress shirt?

    I tend to enjoy wearing V-neck undershirts, mostly because I don't wear a tie at work (casual offices are the best) but I wear button-downs frequently with two buttons open. I feel that a crewneck in those kind of situations look dorky. What I do dislike is the fact that people can see my...
