[Benesyed]

all those items look like they seperately could be part of a cool fit. together they look bad

I've been thinking about this since @navetsea posted but now with @Wham SIce too, I have to say something. I don't understand what either of you are trying to achieve. In most cases, I have some sense of the aesthetic that people are going for, and can assess how much they've succeded, regardless of whether it's an aesthetic I share or would try for myself. But I genuinely don't understand what either of you are trying to do - superficially, both these fits the components seem to be verging on the ugly, and the proporitions and balance are off. But maybe that was supposed to be the point. Am I missing something? I'd be delighted to be educated here...

Bro, you just hate blue leather jackets

I have no real goal about my fit other than trying to wear my rather loud jacket, came to realize from old pictures that something about jacket with very bold stripe or quilted elbow patch that when brand new looks over the top but after several years in it looks interestingly cool, so i set myself off to prove it with bold color combo and contrasting hide thickness to see how they would crease after broken in, i know it would be hard to wear but i love the jacket and i need to wear it often to get the result.

@Wham SIce - where's the jacket from?

Hello! Normally only post in the EG thread but figured I'd share here

 

[penanceroyaltea]

Thank you!

Question about the green. Can Olive be ok? and Should it be light or dark green?

Looks like I have to lighten up the colors.

I'm thinking of:
- White/light blue shirt + Navy trousers + light tan sneaker
- Navy shirt + Navy pants + Yellow sneaker
^ Would these combinations be ok?

I’m not too sure tbh!

But yeah olive trousers or light to medium green should work

Welcome @Chunsak! Would be awesome if you cross posted regularly! Your fits are fantastic

That coat!!

I should give up trying to wear Schneider with sneakers. It always looks better with shoes, boots, loafers

Schneider sweater with boots today.

I don't hate the jacket. The jacket could be awesome or fugly depending on the combination. But you have to work a bit harder with a vivid statement jacket like that. It doesn't lift bad or incompatible clothes, it emphasizes the incongruities. In this combination with the high-water plaid pants, white socks and black shoes, it looks like you're the 1980s-high-school-movie-nerd who borrowed his much cooler brother's jacket to try impress the popular girl from the cheerleading squad...
