They've since stretched out a bit, but hopefully they'll stretch out more before they're done.

I don't think they look too tight. They look good actually.

why does no one like my adidas
wink.gif

heh yea.. one of those staple 'fits. i have a black pair of CT chelsea boots but its a bit too hot for those.

edit: patrizia pepe from daffy's in philly. there were like 10 different tops (buttonups, sweaters, l/s shirts), but most had unappealing details like intentional tears, raggity/frayed stiching, extremely low-neck sweaters... (i prefer the more moderate designs.)

i tried on the so called 'super slim' shirts from zara with the boxed pleats, and unfortunately they seem to fit loose like any other shirt.
though i prefer american designs, european brands hhave much more flattering cuts imo.

One thing I like about Ralphs and New Standards is that you can wear them with varying degrees of tightness/looseness and they still look right. A cut like that is not easy to design. I think that the jeans look pretty good, though I like my Ralphs a little looser. One size, maybe.

Lacoste shirt
Tim Camino white jeans
??? belt
J Crew socks
Church's shoes

I know... the jeans look too short. Haven't had them tailored yet, so they were rolled up. Also... not sure about the red stitching on the back of the jeans, but I like the fit, so whatever...

Can you post a photo from the front? Something inside me wants to shorten that jacket a bit, but that just might be the side-effects of staring at the FW08 BoO collection for too long :p

Thanks. I'll try posting a pic next time I get around to wearing it, maybe sometime later this week.

Nope, not the Paul Smith. This is a CK prototype I picked up off ebay for pennies. 100% wool and it has a great feel to it. To my surprise it's rather well-made and not fused. I'm wearing it right out of the box but I think it might need some waist suppression.
