It's a clickable picture but I'll add another link, thanks

The picture doesn't just go to the article/link, it just goes to the PNG on its own, so thanks for the new link!

And BTW, I completely disagree with the article, having read it, which I think misses the point on the discussion here. Just a matchy-matchy approach is not the only or even the best one - a lot of the best looks here have been very much contrasting, deliberately and thoughtfully so. Saying you should always wear grey sneakers with a grey suit is not really it.

My guess is that you would (proudly) identify yourself as among the most progressive thinkers (thinkers?) on this board. You know, what with the whole 'left-wing professor' bit and all. Yet, the only person I hear calling others assholes and idiots is you.

flying monkey lives to brag about everyone he has put on ignore. It’s odd

Has @dieworkwear taken out any of his troll accounts yet? That dude loves to pull out his troll accounts to drop hard hitting one liners on people who are making him look foolish.

Sweatpant looks really don't belong in this thread...even with a nice topcoat. That's not "tailoring" to me. Just a nice casual outfit.

Another topcoat, sweatpants, new balances outfit. The coat is a little busy for me but he’s selling me overall on the basic combination

View attachment 1674442

This dude dresses like a dad from the 90s who has a nice coat. Those new balances. 1995 called, they want their shoes back.

But to be there, I don't care if someone wears sneakers with casual outfits. Jeans and sweatpants? Okay. Go for it, if that's what you want

Absolutely nothing wrong with what he is wearing. He may be out for some wknd grocery shopping or simply running errands. The vast majority of men won't wear a 3 piece suit to do that.
