Are weird-looking loafers a DC guy thing now? I feel like it used to be tan Cole Haan wingtips but maybe the tides are shifting?
The non-clothing-enthusiasts don't interest me. What interests me is the guys who are clearly "into" clothes but express that by wearing ludicrously tacky things. Examples: pocket squares that come as a set with the tie, statement belts, etc.I only find it so worthwhile to pick at the sartorial choices of non-clothing-enthusiasts. Most people just don't care that much.
Agree. I had nice double monk shoes. I liked them and wore them with my suits.I only find it so worthwhile to pick at the sartorial choices of non-clothing-enthusiasts. Most people just don't care that much.

Tassel loafers aren't inherently tacky (I've very recently concluded).
I definitely see the truth in this. However, allow me to play devil's advocate for a moment. I don't care about cars. We needed to buy one but it's not something I spend any time thinking about. If I put spinning rims and fire decals on my c-max hybrid, I would get absolutely roasted by car enthusiasts, and rightfully so!IDK, I think those are people who aren't that into clothes. They realize that some clothes look better than others and want to wear the better looking clothes, but don't really put much research into it. It's kind of like someone who realizes that they want nice looking rooms in their homes, but doesn't spend hundreds of hours researching interior design. They see some things that look neat to them in a magazine or on Instagram and then go with it. I am not sure that we should fault such a person or make fun of him. We all have to choose how to spend our time; most of us will not choose to spend it researching clothing.

New flannel Teba jackets look amazing. Also, amazingly expensive.

Yeah, I guess so. Does seem like more of a sweater than a jacket, though. Fox Bros. is always fantastic. I ordered the brown houndstooth scarf. Loved the color and fabric.Different material but same designer here, better price.
Justo Gimeno : “Fox Brothers” Tropical Wool Teba Jacket : Olive Green
The first Teba Jacket was created on Savile Row for the need of King Alfonso XIII of Spain. As he was a hunter, this light and comfortable jacket was ideal for the practice of his favorite sport. The King offered, in act of generosity, this jacket...www.beige-habilleur.com
I don’t find the price for these objectionable. It's less than you’d pay for a high end sport coat and basically the same thing, right?
Couldn’t resist this one. I love houndstooth. £20 shipping is acceptable.
Fox Chestnut Houndstooth Cashmere & Merino Wool Scarf.
Quintessentially Fox, these luxurious scarves are warm and cosy, perfect for those colder Autumn Winter days; combining superfine merino with exquisitely soft cashmere. The classic menswear designs have been taken from Fox Brothers' extensive cloth archive and are the perfect accompaniment to...www.themerchantfox.co.uk
Seems normal to me but then it would as I bought it! You’re right and the Teba’s are reasonable I suppose. Kind of wish I had a gap that could fill but I don’t need one.See that price for a scarf is far more egregious to me than the price they want for the teba jacket.
