I’m thinking about getting this shirt (long relaxed fit) but I’m wondering if it’ll look good on short guys like me (5’7). Would it make my legs look short?

I think it'd be the perfect length for you. It's slightly longline, but nothing excessive. A typical large shirt is about 30" long, whereas this is 32". Should be great!

Debating whether to buy Ozweego III's. I already missed my size at a relatively good price on Mr P.

I like them, but they def look stupid.

The ones with the brightly colored rubber bottoms right now might be kind of hard to wear though.

Thanks, I would probably go for the white, not the burgundy or purple. The price point is lower on this season’s vs the FW versions. Is there a difference in make? All leather vs combination?

I have no room for more footwear. Maybe if someone were to buy my Butteros which are listed in B&S, I would have space.

I support white ozweegos.

Re: a long shirt, it's tricky; some brands like Tender Co do a good job of making a big shirt look good on a relatively short dude. So it can be done but it's not guaranteed.

Don't know, tbh. I assume the quality is all the same -- it's just a sneaker -- but the ones with the purple or red bottoms look harder to wear.

Other thing to consider is that Ozweegos are getting a bit stale. And there are some great capital-F fashion sneakers right now. Some I've been looking at:

Undercover x Nike React 87

Y3 Kaiwa (more techwear, but cool looking)

The Broken Arm x Salomon Speedcross (kinda hyped, but if you're already looking at Ozweegos)

Roa Andreas (again semi-hyped, but they have that chunky silhouette)

Why do I insist on getting these $5 white Levis 501 chain stitch hemmed.. Should in or shouldn't i? Some reason that stitch just seems to make pants cuff or fall better..

Not gonna lie, as corny #denimbro as it might be, I really enjoy seeing roping on jean hems. Lockstitched hems make me a bit sad, lol.

FWIW, I vote no on those Nikes and the sweatpants. Do you want the Nikes just for working out or to incorporate sneakers into your day-to-day stuff? They’re sneakerhead hyped, but I like the Air Max 95s and 97s for daily ugly sneaker wear.

All the new Nike ACG stuff is pretty nice.
