Could also just be tall-person syndrome; namely that a lot of people over 6' try to make themselves look shorter because they feel awkward. I always felt pretty uncomfortable doing the "Jump Around" dance at awesome middle school cafeteria dances because I was practically jumping over people's shoulders.
i like that fit though, and if the guy did a teensy bit of work with weights and posture that sweater tee would probably become incredibly flattering. Jean wash is cool, but I think I'll always hate that nudie pocket stitching. At least it's kind of washed out.

I don't stand up tall all the time indeed. Also recognize what you're saying about the Jump Around dance... It's just awkward.

About the T/posture: this T is probably the most unforgiving piece to my current build I have... Because of the bottom edge which is made of stretch material and the type of cotton the shirt is made of. My build isn't that terrible, with a little training of my upper back and by just standing up tall most can be fixed. I do have a small form of a form of anterior pelvic tilt though and gonna be working on that from now a bit and more intensively when I'll be going to the gym next academic year.

About the posture: I don't really fitness at the moment... I do have a subscription, but while playing basketball 3-4 times a week I just didn't feel like going to the fitness centre next to that. Didn't really have time for it (internship) and I don't really like going on my own. Next academic year (when I'm going to study again) I will be going to fitness a lot more with a good friend of mine. Will probably quit basketball (at a competitive level).

About the nudies: I just started checking out styleforum (october last year) and all the jeans I owned before this were Levi's 504 (511/513 doesn't go upto 36), Nudies and Boss Orange. Selling out the Levi's and Boss Orange ones at the moment since I don't like the fit of those anymore. Keeping the Nudies since I still love the fit of Slim Jim/Thinn Finn. I realize on these light jeans the orange stitching is way too much. I also own pairs of all black and grey Nudies (which I still wear A LOT) and on those the pocket stitching is in black.

Being super tall can be really agitating when you have to look down to speak or listen to people. It's like, "****, quit forcing me into bad posture because of your shortness."
And yeah, the fit is totally fine—it's just tough to wear something so unforgiving of one's posture/fitness. The Dazed-and-Confused-wash jean looks particularly cool as well.
This.

What size are your CP's? My shoe size is US 14-15 and I'm trying to get into the designer baller foot wear, but not too many options out there

They are BBall high CP's... They fit real narrow, but do fit a bit larger than your average CP. That's why I've got these in size 45. My normal CP size is 46. I feel you on the designer baller footwear.... Only baller sneakers I own are CP's. KvA/Ann/MMM etc. don't make size 46 if I'm correct and even then I probably would need a size 47 in those brands.

Glad with all your comments and at least now I know these jeans deserve some more wear. :)

it's not hard to take the stitching off. I have done it many times.

My Raf Simons and Common Projects sneakers fit about the same, so... :)

I think TCWalter is a real person who politely goes about his day wearing his white CPs and holding doors for old ladies, then goes home to clean his Glock and listen to NWA on full volume.

I want to believe

I know I shouldn't like the jute kicks but the more I see them the more they grow on me. Considering the high-tops :/

Also great color on the jeans, but you should probably roll up your sleeves a little bit more.

Ahh....why exactly shouldn't you like them? I would buy the painted hightops in a heartbeat if they are released

Sleeves come pinned and rolled already, I don't put in time at the gym to wear long sleeves and a jacket :teach:
