I'm going to a wedding this summer, the attire is black tie. Would a midnight blue tuxedo be appropriate? Specifically, this one by Belvest:

how durable are the mmm gat's gum soles?


Not the best, but not the worst - mine developed holes after 3ish years of semi-regular wear. A bit of a bummer as the uppers were still fine. CP soles will last a big longer

Need some minimalistic everyday trousers (black,grey, navy). Not too formal but not too sloppy either.
Somewhat relaxed but with a good taper.
Here are some examples from Ute Ploier, Peir Wu x Snowman and Schneider.






Any recommendations?

out of the three above, the second seems to fit your description the best, but I guess that's because of the fit on the whole..

Oh and is this legit a Vis piece?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Visvim-...=US_CSA_MC_Outerwear&var=&hash=item35d43a81bd

I haven't kept up with Visvim over the last 3-4 years so I don't know. But I like it and it's $150.

EDIT:
So I found this from a blog post.


And this is from the eBay listing


Obviously the colours are very different. So I don't know if it's a rip or if there were multiple colourways of the same jacket, again. Any help would be appreciated, I think the fact it's $150 and shipping from Hong Kong is what feels so suspect about it.

XPost:

First-hand opinions on the comparative slimness of CT Extra Slim Fit vs. BB ESF? I see measurement charts assembled on 3rd party sites that would list the CTs in this comparison as slimmer, but wondering if anyone could speak more directly to the question. Which brand's ESF in a 16/35 will be slimmer?

FWIW, I take 16/35 in BBESF just fine. Up to now had only tried CT Slim fit, which were good, but still a bit of volume in the trunk - however, the measurement charts put the CT ESF as almost 4 inches smaller in the waist than ESF and wondered if that was true or just e-measurements being e-measurements.

What outwear goes with DH jeans and Visvim boots? Seems to be half workwear and half rocker, but they work well together.
