It sounds fine. Lace it up tight and it shouldn't slip. You can try adding an insole to the boots or wear thicker socks.

Yeah I was just running in it with no problem. I guess all I'm worried about is it isn't really a "tight" fit since I see all this talk about breaking in boots

Hey guys, having a problem.

Going to buy some new jeans online and I prefer the slim/straight jeans. I'm 5'10 150lbs, most people say I'm a slim/skinny build but think I'm average.

I've been wearing 31x32 for the past 2 years, but now my jeans which consist of 508 Levis and other Slim/Straight jeans are getting a bit tight. A bit around my calf and butt region. I'm debating whether to get 32x32 or even 33x32 because some slim/straight cuts are actually skinny.

For these jeans:
Altamont The Whilshire Staple
Comune The Lindon Jeans

Should I go for the 32x32 or 33x32? I read some reviews that the jeans may feel a bit tight which is why I'm debating to go up to 33. Thanks in advance.

Where can I purchase a Navy Blazer fully canvassed?

What four colors in dress slacks should I purchase? What brand(s) are the best?

You didn't post a budget.

Would just go with forum affiliate Epaulet in that price range. That's where a majority of my work clothes come from. Probably mid gray / charcoal / navy / something brown toned.

What do people here think of "Freewheelers & Co", Japan made. I don't remember reading any reference to it or seeing it much. Is it legit? (Esp the ones with the extra trim by their pockets)

Is there a limit to how much a tailor can take in the bottom of a jacket? I need probably 5 inches taken in around the waist and then maybe 3 or so out of the chest. If this would be better served in the tailors thread I can move it over there. Thought this could be a simple answer.

I would just abandon that particular jacket and cut my losses.
