What is the suit color? Is it gray? Thanks.
Yes. It’s the SM Emerald Label Drago S160 suit from this year’s S/S lineup. Butter soft yet surprisingly wrinkle resistant.

Hello gents! Been awhile, in the midst of a sweltering 100+ degree summer I haven’t had the chance to wear a necktie or suit much, I hope you all will forgive the sock-lessness :)

Nicely fitting threads and great colour combo but unless you’re trying to display a personal quirk you’ve got to do a better job with that tie knot. I suppose some people will shrug it off but it sticks out to me as a glaring detriment in an otherwise stellar outfit, being positively dwarfed by the shirt’s generous collar length.

Lovely colour combination. You have the luck that your skin tone is the right one. I would wear socks regardless.
Thank you @DorianGreen, always appreciate the feedback from the better dressed gents here.
@Thin White Duke
You are absolutely correct, the tie is a weirdly skinny one (vintage I believe) & the knot ends up being comically small. I’m on the hunt for a replacement but I can’t bring myself to part with it haha, sentimental fool I suppose!

Leaving aside the question of whether the shoes are something you should own at all, it is abundantly clear to me that they don't go with outfit. The white is far too stark against this background.
The shoes are black and white. Maximum contrast already. Do you think a lighter pant color would have worked better with the shoes here?
