WAYWRN: Classic Menswear, Casual Style

[Eli Curt]

@smittycl That really looks bad, sorry. Do you got other shorts? It might be those mustard shorts. Summer look doesnt have to be this bad

I beg to differ.

Smitty looking insouciant and relaxed, the colors play with each other just fine.

For better or worse, much of what the film/TV industry churns out influences what becomes acceptable, even cool, to wear. Some are the obvious references, such as Dickie Greenleaf (a name practically unknown outside of menswear nerd circles), Indiana Jones, and 007. But which ones have...

I must agree with other comments: the ensemble is very nice and the photos are of high quality. Congratulations to both!

Cheers

Yep totally agree with that.
We recently had terrible short (and even swim trunks) pictures, with white ankles, flabby legs, crotch shots, etc, and curiously nobody said anything.

Lots of other shorts but I love the mustard color! It’s a weakness apparently.

Anyway, feels like 107 here. Now safely in pool...

I reckon it came off abit more harsh than it was intended. I guess i am in the minority regards the mustard shorts, i stand corrected.

Nah, I knew what you were saying. Not everyone likes the same colors. Besides, the shorts passed the wifey test so they are keepers (as well as being very breathable linen).

Very kind of you to say. They are a mix of self portraits and shots taken by my talented wife. The camera is a 5D mkIV and I generally do some light editing in Lightroom.

Finding interesting venues and backdrops is the most rewarding part.

Yes, the shots are very good. Do you carry a tripod with you everywhere?

Yes, you could be Spencer Tracy and @macjedi could be Humphrey Bogart.

Sorry Gerry, @UrbanComposition … doesn’t see it ?

Imho @macjedi looks much more like Seiji Miyaguchi (mainly known in the Western world for his role in "Seven Samurai") than like Bogart.

Thanks for that!! Though, he’s much cooler and has better hair. ?

 

[Clouseau]

He is super cool. And a great actor.
I thought of him first time i saw a picture of you.

He was super cool, you can see his Seven Samurai character in in almost every ensemble action movie since.
