WAYWRN: Classic Menswear, Casual Style

[NOBD]

 

[noob in 89]

I'm seeing this w/ blue jeans and a pale red chambray shirt...but that's just me.

 

[Thanks SF (a new me)]

looking good NOBD...is that trouser moleskin? taupe color?

Might be more SW&D, but I'll try.

Trying to split the differences between MC, MC casual, and SW&D is not very useful, I'd say. Just post where you feel comfortable.

It's better to have variety in the WAYRNs than some kind of monoculture in each.

That being said, I don't really expect that I'll see a goth-ninja getup here.

Yes, why not. There are plenty of possibilities. I thought I'd skip the jeans for once...

I'm not sure, but it does a "moleskin vibe". They're green, slightly bluish, and not as dark green as they were in the webstore...

NOBD, not a fan of the green, sorry - but I like everything else.

Is that a shirt under the Stark or are you going all Gosling in Driver with a henley?

where did you get the jacket?

No problem, Kaplan, I understand. I bought it to try out a new colour, but I don't wear it often. The shirt is a beige/white striped linen.

where did you get the jacket?

Montedoro, in a Dutch store about three years ago.

Since Man of Kent posts in SW&D WAYRN, I'll take the liberty of cross-posting it to here ..
just because I like it.

That is a great pic MoK



Dark green pants look off. That color never looks right with navy to me. Sub in some lighter grey/stone colored jeans or chinos and you've got it.

People should post in both, just to get perspective.

I am going to cross post some of my pics. Hopefully it will generate some laughs.

Thanks. Sound like colours I can work with.

+ close-up of the fabric?

Spoiler: Warning: DLester

I've always thought that coats along these lines straddle the MC/SW&D quite well.

Here's a Canali from a Mr Porter journal a few months ago that I like:

The car doesn't hurt, either.
