I think the main problem with the shirt is that it looks very normie. Don't think tucking it in will help. Just looks like some shirt you'd get in a clothing subscription box next to some fun socks and slim chinos.

Aside from being an inoffensive, standard-issue basic white bro madras weekend shirt, I don't think the fit, and the way its being worn, flatters the model.

They’re going for a Madras look here—I doubt it’s real Madras (the pattern would be the same on the back of the fabric). But if it were Madras it would fade a bit after a few washes and be less…eye-catching.

I'm having a difficult time determining whether or not this green and blue plaid shirt from Barbour is a total eyesore or vibrant and fashionable.

These are colors that typically look good with my skin tone, but not sure about them paired together like this. I know some people believe that green and blue should never be paired directly together. Interested to hear others' opinions on it.

A pleasing eyesore?
