    high collar

    I've always thought that "Nehru" was a style of jacket, which features a Mandarin collar. When referring only to the collar style, "Mandarin" is probably a more widely used term. Really close. I think maybe some mandarin collars are close enough that I would just go for that, but I want a...

    high collar

    What is the term for a shirt with a high, unfolded collar? I just saw Tron, a terrible movie, but the actors had a similar collar to what I've wanted for a long time--a high, unfolded collar that comes up off the clavicle and looks very modern. If someone isn't making a shirt or jacket with...

    Burberry-style coats

    read the mega peacoat thread... I assume that's what you're referring to? There are many very affordable options for nice peacoats around. I'll check it out, but I'm not really that interested in a pea coat. They became very popular with college guys two years ago, and now a lot of my...

    Burberry-style coats

    I need a new winter coat. I'm starting an internship soon and will graduate in the spring, so I'd like something a little more formal than a ski jacket. I really like the style of Burberry coats, but I'm pretty strapped for cash. Any suggestions for a cheaper brand with a similar style?

    Do women really judge men by the shoes men wear?

    On SF ,the gay thing is on-going joke ,banter... A lot of things are gay even some sfers. What? ******* a clothing forum? Get out of town. And yes, women notice. Otherwise I wouldn't get so many compliments from them. But as others have pointed out, flashy shoes will get more notice. A...

    sport coat for the tall and slim

    Hello. I'm in college and I want a decent sport coat that will fit me. I am 6'2 and 150 lbs. Nothing too expensive, and it has to be a slim fit with longer sleeves. Since most clothing companies don't make my size (38l) anymore, I might need to get one that is sized in S, M, L, etc. If so, the...

    track jacket a DJ might wear

    Not me. I'm getting the impression that most DJs people encounter are goofs. I hate coming off as a music nerd, but I'm talking about progressive house...its not like house or trance. Here's an example: IMPORTANT NOTICE: No media files are hosted on these forums. By clicking the link below you...

    track jacket a DJ might wear

    I had always assumed the words loud,obnoxious,gaudy, and house music were synonymous with tool? oops Umm, gold chains and baggy sweat pants? I don't even know what the hell you're trying to refer to...******, maybe? Swing and a miss.

    track jacket a DJ might wear

    you have to have the cholo knock off from the flea market NK-AIR ADIS REBOC et cetera they'll be black and have 5, maybe 6 stripes instead of 3 or they'll have a stip of the ribbing you see on hotchick/sorority powderpuff football/softball t-shirts running all the way down the sleeve...

    track jacket a DJ might wear

    I want something that looks european, loud, and obnoxious to wear while spinning some progressive house. Something that would look good with some equally gaudy sneakers and a set of shades. Something like that, but preferably in navy, and preferably for less than 100 bucks. Anyone have any...

    Ask A Question, Get An Answer... - Post All Quick Questions Here (Classic menswear)

    What shirt or sweater could I wear with black chinos? I'd also probably wear black driving mocs with no socks as well. I think these pants and shoes go well together, but I can't think of a top.

    Johnston Murphy vs. Cole Haan vs. Kenneth Cole (Shoes)

    I don't know what any of you are talking about. Seems people are always having stuff suddenly "fall right apart," whatever the product in question is. I own shoes from all 3 companies. I have a pair of j&s fisherman sandals that are some of the most rock solid shoes I've ever seen. The kenneth...

    shirts with chinos for a college student?

    For shirts, try H&M. Nice reasonably dressy, slim-fitting shirts that are also budget friendly. Make sure you iron them and use the collar stays. Don't wear a crew neck t-shirt undernearth - wear a v-neck of you need an extra layer. A sweater that fits well can be a nice addition too (keep your...

    Tom's Shoes

    You are right! Malnourishment is the #1 villan. 5 years ago you didn't see the orange streaks in kids hair from malnourishment but it is coming back strong in SE Asia, and has always been in Brazil. One of the reason there is so much lawlessness in Brazil is many of the favela dudes are big and...

    RULES for the tall and skinny man

    Khakis work fine if they're cut right, they need to be slim through the leg, and taper down to the ankle. A 7.5" wide hem is perfect and its rare OTR. They also need to be hemmed so they offer a slight break, of if they're to be worn in the summer with no socks, then no break. Seasonal options...

    How about these Cole Haan drivers?

    I just bought a pair of these. http://www.ralphlauren.com/product/i...entPage=search If you like the buckle, I think it looks very sharp but they make a style similar to the one you posted as well.

    The Definitive Guide to Slim Fit Shirts

    I am one skinny mofo, at 5'10" and 140 lbs. My jacket measurements are 17.5" shoulder (across back) and 37" chest for reference. You're hardly skinny. I'm 6'3 and 150. It's sooo hard to find shirts that fit. I've definitely learned to love being this way, though, lets you get away with anything...

    shaving problems

    I am 22 and I noticed about a year ago that it was getting harder and harder to shave. I don't have quite a full beard but I'm very close and have to shave every day, and shaving gradually became a nightmare. I have a gillet fusion 5-blade razor. I make sure to exfoliate my face in the shower...

    Red hair is anti-style?

    I disagree with your logic. Surely, most of the posters on this forum are teased and ostracized on a daily basis, and yet several posters on this forum are really quite stylish. And those who are not stylish surely cannot be criticized for a want of trying. Am I misunderstanding, or are you...
