HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

[StanleyVanBuren]

THEM SHADES! Are those Persols?! Nice shades!

Thanks! They're just Clubmasters though.

Brown is for Farmer Friday Challenge (pace ernest):



Tie is actually navy cashmere, and the square is a reddish/brownish/with-other-earthy-colours madder; apologies for the dark photos.

Shirt has heretical double cuffs.

EDIT - thanks for the large number of thumbs-up on my last post; I just caught up with the thread and noticed them. Yeah, I like that suit too.

Dressed down. Give feedback if you have.

Feeling trad today. Madras colors are more autumnal than they appear in your monitor.

Kick ass. I hope you are golfing later.

When they make pants like that, do they automatically make the crotch bigger because the wearer has to have huge balls to wear them in public? (Just kidding...I think you are rocking the pants....really cool fit though....but kids watching at home, this is not good for an interview...)

Thanks for all the kind comments, they are much appreciated
This is one of Vanda's so called "super" repps - really heavy silk and it ties a beautiful knot.


Toda's fit is x-posted for the Friday challenge - the only brown SC I hadn't worn this week. Again, lighting sucked, so the detail photos actually have better representation of the colours.

Great color on the jacket. What's the pattern on the square?

I fully expect mixed/negative reaction, but it's what I'm wearing today.

This is the square (acknowledgements to Malford for both the square (which I paid for) and the photo (which I stole from his website)):

I just think you need better jeans. Otherwise I'm OK.

Could be, but I am both old and a dad, so I'm probably beyond helping.

...sorry, couldn't help it.

My pocket square matches my tie and I'm wearing red socks.

I agree about the tie/PS match but it's not the worst. However, the socks are a plus and entirely in keeping with your bold and cheery style, and you're wearing proper shoes. I'd call that a win on points overall.

CLAGS warned me about how red this tie is and now I think I am seeing it. What are your thoughts, gentlemen. I really thut it was going to be a tad bit darker. Did I botch it yet again?

It is very red. Against another bright-ish solid suit it maybe stands out more (I'm thinking Duran Duran circa 1982). But try it with a grey flannel or PoW check. The texture is lovely, and nothing wrong with a bold tie now and then. Believe in yourself, man!

4 patterns and odd lighting due to the walls reflecting sunlight.

Clags, that suit is just a giant. I am in awe of its fuckyouness.

Color scheme for today's fit determined by the Friday Challenge - "Brown is for Farmer". Here I am, complete with all but the pitchfork.

I know I've mentioned this before, but as well as you do conservative business dress, you should really let your inner country gent out a little more often. The warmer textures and tones really suit you.

PS and Grenadine from the Shibumi twins

That's an awesome jacket. I don't especially like how the collar is wider than the lapel, but that's a niggle. Really great look and I love the tie and PS.

"sigh" I don't think this will go well...but I tried. Let the inquisition begin!
BIG FAIL

Absolutely inoffensive, lovely tie. What's wrong with you? Man up! The stitchnderkabuse is taking its toll on your self-esteem, clearly.

Oxxford clothes.

And here a little bonus shot. Yesterday a TKmaxx store opened in my town and the only workable pair of shoes in my size was this Florsheim Imperial Norwegian. I was searching a long time for exactly a pair of shoes like these ones:

The AEs are better made, but the Florsheims are a good style for that look. Alas, you often get what you pay for. Email [email protected] with your US size. Specifically, they had some good deals on cordovan recently (ask about those as they don't come in the normal list), and I picked up a "Bradley" shell cordovan NST for $299. Needs some TLC, but man what a steal.

Feeling trad today. Madras colors are more autumnal than they appear in your monitor.

Deserves points for the sheer gall of it. Good for you.

Today:
Feedback is always welcome.

I don't think I like turtlenecks. But this is immaculate.

That's probably the least "challenging" outfit I've ever seen you post. In a really good way. Super country-tasteful, yet still "you". I love it.

Spooky. A few hours before you posted this fit, I ordered exactly that square from Mr Malford. No surprise I like your fits, really...

Oh good grief. Your extraordinary range of tweedage is a soothing and consistent balm upon which enjoyment of my daily SF read depends. Today I feel very let down. Come on, Butch, for goodness' sake! It's just so wrong to see you like this. Like walking in on Beyonce naked, then realising she's taking a ****.

Seen as Sugarbutch is posting denim, I thought I might as well post mine. Mimo, avert your eyes.
