I have those same shorts myself (but in a different color). They are the slimmest fitting shorts I have ever worn. Unless you are really slim, you may need to size up on those. I highly doubt you could find something as slim and as nice for only $50.

W+H MK-2 Field Jacket is pretty similar however it doesn't have a food and the arms are slimmed down a lot.

I'm looking for a good SF-level quality guayabera. Must be available in XS or online MTM. Any recommendations?

Recommend me:
A stylish, comfortable hoodie for a 5'8" 150 guy, a little stocky. Something simple but stylish, and not in black.

Can anybody recommend some good belts for jeans.

AntiHero84 · Apr 14, 2009

One made of leather.

EDIT: You may also want a buckle, but that's your call.

edubs01 · Apr 14, 2009

Obv. leather.
Curious if anybody had any brands or online shops they can recommend.

I've ordered several belts from www.leathergoodsconnection.com and been happy with them. The belts are full-grain (i.e. solid, one-piece) leather and are hand-made/hand-finished (in the USA) and can be made to any length you specify. Get the harness or the thicker bridle leather belts.

Look up "Kill City". There are a variety of cuts, and I'm pretty sure that one of the models will suit your needs.

I want to buy a pair of shoes for my dad. He's in his 50s, kind of a slim/broad build, about 5'8 and needs a casual/beater shoe.

His casual look is usually wears polos or button down shirts with sleeves rolled up and then tucked in to slacks/chinos (I don't even know the difference) in most of the plain simple colors. He usually just wears plain black sneakers and my mom always yells at him for it wearing them as it's not a very grown man look.

What are some nice shoes that are comfortable for moving around with for most of the day that has that smart casual look? My dad can fit slim fit style clothing without looking like a tool but his build isn't the slim fit type that most of the people here seem to have.

Some sort of loafer, boat shoe, or canvas sneaker (Jack Purcell).

Warning: He could end up looking like whodini:

lemmywinks · Apr 15, 2009

Thanks. My dad isn't a very fashion forward type of guy so I don't think he can pull off a canvas sneaker. I have a pair of boat shoes but I don't think they are comfortable enough for my dad to wear for long periods of time.

What type of loafers (brand, color) should I be looking at? This will be his only pair as a sort of fill in between his dress shoes and some sneakers that he uses as beaters and they need to be comfortable and look like something a grown man would wear.

That dude only fell for your trolling because he's foreign...are you on sufu? Check ur pm dawg!

Can anyone recommend what style/color belt to wear with my Red Wing GT's Black Cherry???

I dont feel a brown belt would work in this case... would straight black work??

i've been thinking about looking for a black cherry belt to match the color of the boots but I wanted some more creative ideas on what would work.

Thanks
