I like different! I respect individuality and risk but the concept of that coat doesn't work for me. Maybe it's the color of the zippers?. It may have worked in all Black with matching zippers?, is it Navy or Black?, am I color blind?. What size is it?, maybe it'a touch too big for you?.

That Raf Simons coat would look better with the collar done up and unzipped.

Of course, that may not show up in the rather static picture there.

and a bonus suit pic, disregard the part of the dress shirt hanging out, it was tucked it when I was wearing it, but a friend wanted me to send them a picture so I sent it before I changed.

Well, individuality is what it is all about. I wanted something different and that is what I got. I can totally understand why the jacket does not appeal to everyone, but I like, excuse the cliched language, that it is edgy while being sophisticated. One thing that surprised me was the positive reaction at my school (not exactly a fashion-forward place). The jacket is black (it is my camera, not your eyes) As for the fit, I wouldn't mind if it was half an inch narrower at the shoulder, but otherwise I think it fits me great. Also, the shoulder is slightly padded so that may make it appear too big (I just looked at the runway video of the collection for fun, and my jacket fits pretty much the same way as on the runway). I don't like super-skinny fits so...The cut of the jacket is amazing, sharp, and my picture did not capture that well. Labelking, in retrospect, I should have left the coat unzipped...next time.

On the Raf Simons coat: I dunno. I don't think it's flattering, or does anything for the look as far as attractiveness is concerned, but all things said it really is a piece of art and kucejoe definitely fits into the aesthetic, with the military attention-esque pose. Almost looks like a futuristic robot.

Not something I would wear, but I do always have 'handsome' or 'sexy' in the back of my head, and sometimes in the back of ******. Just kidding. Very cool nonetheless.

Ghulkan, I agree. I am eternally jealous that Sauce fits into that suit so perfectly. I think I need to gain a few more pounds yet before I can achieve such a perfect fit.

Very cool Janud. If it were me wearing that, I'd probably pull the pants down a little because I tend to think that's how JR's are meant to be worn and that's where the cut of them really shines.

I've never really been into suits but seeing the sauceman stone cold pimpin in that suit is making me want to get a TaT big time. I have a similar build as sauce, so that just sealed the deal for me, I'm getting one when I get paid.

Is it comfortable?

It's the suit, man, seriously. I'm a total convert, I'm already trying to pick my next fabric and put aside the cash for the next one.

The only thing less comfortable about it than a "normal" suit is that the pants are cut quite slim. I gave Jason my thigh measurements and he cut it very slim based on that, which is exactly what I wanted. I'm so used to slim dry denim that it feels like silk, though.

Thank you. Normally I do slouch the jeans a lot more, but I thought it would be interesting to take advantage of the high rise and hike them up with a belt.
