Shoes are 44 in guidi size, which means 43 in normal sizing


edit: just checked the hamper, it's James Perse.. oops


lol, Hanes tees are literally $1 a piece, but I think Perse tees are like $30 or something aren't they? My KAG ex-roommate had a wardrobe that was 100% doubleknit and it was all James Perse and AA.

@robinson: No, just, no. Bad fit on pants, big blazer over tee, pants tucked into low tops??? Low tops DO NOT go with that blazer, swap tee for a buttondown.

@doctor: Whoaaaaaaa, flared shirt. Take that to a tailor or beat it up so it lies flat. Beautiful boots though.

The big vest looks plenty fun to wear, given his overall qwerkiness I think it works. The problem with wearing a vest proper is that it is so completely out of context, by having the vest be oversized or casual in another way (down for e.g seems to be a popular choice among workwear people), you remove this context.

In other words, wear a vest with contextual associations other than timberlake wannabe or 3 piece suit. Or wear a dress vest in its right context.

A down vest has however nothing contextual in common with the dress vest to start with.

I'll play it safe and say 6'7". I don't tuck anymore. That was an old pic. My legs are psycho long (it's not an illusion) so I try to balance that out a bit by untucking and often wearing boots as opposed to shoes.

Is it that bad? I have a few shirts that need to be fixed up in the same way (I always have this problem - too baggy at the waist), but I wasn't in a crazy rush because I thought it was a minor matter.
