That Barena jacket makes you look real rotund, Ken (sry if you're actually rotund)



I think ken could've sized down on that jacket

I'm a little top heavy but no offense taken! It is a bit too big in the shoulders, looks better open or with layers underneath. Thanks for the feedback guys.

e0d, that's so sick!

As always, your comments are encouraged as I get my act together.

Thanks!



I agree with mok about the pose. Seems like you're forcing... something. I think you should just take it easy and relax in the knowledge that you are looking better and better. My only real advice here is that your jeans look really crisp, for lack of a better word. Kinda uncomfortable looking, like they're too tight up top with loads of width at the bottom. Have you tried any vintagey chinos or casual trousers. Trousers with more drape than jeans. Maybe something with a turnup as I've heard they help drape. I wouldn't order anything, go into stores to try to get a fit which works for you.

Hey e0d9n0b5, are you wearing the over-dye nonnative denims?

I have a pair myself and it's my go-to-pair of jeans.

I sized down to a 1, and I'm glad I did because they stretched out quite a bit. They reveal some very nice charcoal fades after washing.

I love how the jeans are stitched at the back of the knee to give it a nice "bent" silhouette.

I could go on and on about these jeans...

@Poilu thanks for the feedback.

These jeans are Albam raw denim and they're a slim cut. They feel good and I don't think I'll have them tapered. Unfortunately I gave them a cold wash (as instructed on the label) and they've since not returned to their former flatter shape. I've tried to iron them but to no avail. I'm hoping they'll eventually settle down.

But yeah, I'm on the hunt for some better and more comfortable (and flattering) trousers. It's such a disconnect between what looks good in the mirror (to me) and what I look like in pictures against a blank wall.

But life is funny like that.

Thanks again for the comment.

Can't wait to look back on these old fit pics in a year or so.
