Sorry I didn't take the trousers but I was a bit in a hurry at that point of time. The trousers are light grey flannel FYI, the shoes are tan suede chukkas from C&J.
Jacket is from Anderson & Sheppard,
Shirt is from Charvet
Tie is from Drakes

The rain and the snow will get there pretty soon, light grey flannel will have to go back into the wardrobe (way too easily stained with snow and rain)

Been kind of sick the last month and a half or so but back on my feet and back to work. Missed posting. Sorry for the crummy quality, I just have a macbook again right now but not for long. Suit is Polo, grey flannel. I wore black single monkstraps on the bottom. Tie is more gold than yellow. Never loved how this suit fits but I don't want to part with the fabric...Anyway, good work lately guys, I need to catch up on the thread!

Probably could've gone with an odd jacket today instead of a full suit, but meh. Worn with the J&M chelseas I wear whenever I have to wear a suit (they make me feel better). Saks house brand, wool silk blend BB tie and a very, very light pink mtm shirt.

Your picture is motion-sickness-inducing. But I like the combination.

Not my fave fit of yours (blue shirt would go a long way to letting me appreciate it more), but I just wanted to say that I'm glad you're feeling better. Sounds liek you've had a rough time recently.

I too would be a fan of the blue shirt

If i can earn some brownie points back I knew this would be a criticism :( The shirt is a dark blue check if that helps. I was going to wear a blue shirt but I got lazy and went with the white that was pressed :embar:

nyr and spoo - fantastic combos, fellas.

spoo - that is one helluva SC. is the duo really truly reversible, and what does the opposite side look like?

Quit obsessing about your thighs, man! We're not women.

I think these trousers look great, but there's a risk of their being what my daughter calls "ankle-bashers" when you walk. I think they need to be either a touch longer, or a touch more tapered. I'd go with the former personally, but the SF fashionistas will probably say go Italian i.e. stay short, but narrower. To me that's a little young and trendy, but then you might be younger and trendier than I am...

Yes I also thought they were "ankle bashers" as you put it, and they are already very "tapered' for what appears to be fairly classic trousers.



Yeah man, it's all about the thighs... and a good bubble butt - chicks dig it

Thanks for the constructive comments guys, you seem to disagree that with short ankle bashers, it looks either as if one has grown out of them, or they shrunk in the wash, but not stylish, well not to my mind anyway.

Don't bash him, lol. I guess what he said would be right for a more "modern, stylish, streamlined look", but that just ain't what I'm after, and I don't think these trousers have a modern cut anyways

I like cuffed pants to have little to no break, and don't mind showing socks when walking (not when standing, though). I was more concerned about the overall drape, but thanks for the feedback

Thanks for the first time Diaz..
The drape at the back of the thighs... maybe I'm just being a little OCD about it. I should post some back shots at the tailors' thread

and Thanks again Diaz,

I was trying to help constructively, You do dress exceptionally well almost all of the time. As you and "they" say, the chino's don't drape, but they look quite robust and masculine, even if not as suave as your upper body dressing.

I have taken the trouble to edit the pic you posted to show what i mean, also I see that NYRanger has got his trousers to a fine art in terms of break (and cuff). Best is that "they" (n0n-n00bs) seem to like it long as well, or at least they don't seem to hate what NYR has done, or know what they like TBH. I somehow think the group "bashing" frenzy kinda took over and they all had a bite.. oh well. ASPD
