Ok, so maybe I have simple, undeveloped tastes, but I saw this outfit and I really liked it. It's Uniqlo, and I'm thinking I will get it. My question is though, how much would something like this run? Jacket, Shirt, Pants... I have heard on here that you can phone in orders, as I live in Texas, and I can't just go in and check out these items.

Also, will Uniqlo have this in navy or grey? You guys have scared me away from anything black : ( Also, is the quality bearable?

Do they get replenishments throughout the season?

Also, what do you think about the fact that it's black? I won't look like a waiter, will I? :p

I like the fit on the pants, very spring comfortable, but the jacket's buttons come up too high. Lapels are too small, looks weird buttoned up.

Uniqlo is awesome price for the quality, far surpasses any other fast fashion house. I check it out once a month or so. I like that outfit but don't wear three-button jackets, or else I'd have me a nice new cotton suit.

True, for me at least. Their polos are awesome though...$15 and the ideal fit. Like RL custom-fit but they hug the bicep a little less.

I think it's cut so that the bottom-button is supposed to be done up (as opposed to the photographer/stylist ******* up, like every other shoot). So that makes it the equivalent of a four-button jacket.

It's nice that they didn't pin the jacket for this shot so you know what you're getting: it's loose, which might be good for just hanging out on the beach?

did you see the uniqlo jacket on pg 159 of the new GQ magazine (eric bana on the cover)? I'm thinking of ordering one thru the mail from NYC, will they send a catalogue of other current items, do ya think?

Wish I could find that varvatos shirt shown with the lightweight bomber jacket in the magazine, I'd like to copy that look (already have the solid tie, and prob some khakis for a casual day at work).
