So none of that is for sale after all?

Sadly not. Not even the urinal.

I think you guys will like this fit
Edited for boots and lighting!

Ben, I think the proportion is ok with the cropped db jacket and drapey full pants. However, this outfit ages you tremendously and not only because of the glasses. I question in what context would you be wearing this outfit? For someone your age and good physique, this outfit hides all of that. It might be a certain aesthetic you are going for and I have seen some outfits you've worn in the past that shows a good example of this particular aesthetic and this one isn't one of them. I would rather see you in those graphic tees, leather jacket, and jeans that evoke a sexy cholo vibe than this and you really need to add some color in your outfit like something in the red family.

Christmas came early for me (0) -- shout out to Bam! and Shah

Pants are sagged and hug the thigh a bit but 2% stretch should be good. First pair of corduroy? I like how they feel

Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic for men?

I don't mean to insult, but that's the first thought that came to mind. Maybe the pants might look ok as part of suit but in this outfit worn with a sweater, button down, and a printed bow tie, it looks old fashioned. I like the personality that your look evokes with the old fashioned clothing and metrosexual grooming, but it's a little too much with the bling bling watch and earrings. This look also ages you tremendously.

a suggestion, maybe your taste is something in the aesthetic of Bottega Veneta Spring 2013

My shoes got ropes on 'em (no vis). *shrug*

Less clunky shoes and this is really cool. Like the blazer

Thanks, it's the Uniqlo Dry Easy Jacket from this spring. I agree on getting less-clunky shoes - I need to get the heel reattached on my other boots. Those are a bit more sleek.

I live life like an older man. My leather/young look is not in line with my personality 90% of the time.

gettoasty - great look. especially the sweater/jacket/jersey thingy.

 

[colabear]

that's what I like about you, Ben. You actually remind me of my younger brother. But that outfit is not fashionable and does not do you justice

And ya the boots are not ideal n that pic. I just threw them on for the picture. Ill take a proper pic with the zuriicks once im about to go out. But that being said, I don't have reedo's level of distaste for them.

Sorry, but Zuriicks will likely be a downgrade. I don't really think they work well in any context, let alone with Yohji. I think you need to consider your purchases a bit better.
