I really like his laid-back casual look of his oxfords. They looked perfectly disheveled but not too messy. Any idea on what brand makes them or at least whose are similar?

"perfectly" disheveled? looks like a run-of-the-mill shirt to me. probably Gap or something.

Yeah, it's called "not even trying". Very chic.

Brooks Brothers (NOT non-iron) or J.Press. Hang them right out of the dryer, but don't iron them.

Sounds like a goofy question, but I'd kind of like to know as well. At 5'9, it's hard to find an oxford that looks all smooth and trim untucked like that. Even my fitted shirts look kind of ****** at the bottom.

OP, next I'm switching from Gitman Bros to Gitman Bros Vintage. They appear to be made to be worn slim and untucked by your standard bored-looking, cospicuous consumer-y, brand conscious emo kid. Vintage. Google it.

Try Rugby and J. Crew if you want a slim shirt.

Read the title expecting shoes. I was very confused when the pictures were all cropped over the shoes. He meant oxford cloth shirt I suppose. Uniqlo has some cheap OCBD's but the collar's a bit smaller than the one Laurie has one.
