Looks like you my want to shorten the trousers a tad. They seem to be breaking like a ghetto church suit in the front view. Could just be how you put them on, though.

And why you got so much nut-crunch creasing?! Have you been holding your knees up to your chest for extended periods of time, or what?

My "other feedback" would be to tuck your pocket square in another .75", for sure. And lose the beard, but keep the mustache and grow a bottom lip tab. The beard looks too much like Ron Howard trying not to look like Richie Cunningham. A 'stache will make you look tough as steel.

Do you mean a soul patch?
Never ever recommend that to anyone

Hahaha. Not exactly. I mean in conjunction with a mustache. A robinhood combo, in other words. Not a stand alone soul patch, ever. Unless you like chunky square toed black shoes to go with your beltless khaki Dockers and blue haggar dress shirt from Mervyn's and mid 90's mountain bike.

You'll have to forgive the facial hair... it's usually longer, but I shaved for Halloween to accommodate some full-face green makeup. That's also why the hair on the sides of my head is so long in comparison to the beard (I plan on getting a hair cut soon to balance it out). Before that I just had the beard, so this is my first time (ever!) trying out the moustache. I'll keep your feedback in mind, and maybe when it gets to my target length I'll post a photo in Health & Body to see what everyone thinks.

Wanted to give another plug for Jason and his great service. Just placed an order for the grey tweed jacket with orange windowpane. Will update with pics upon arrival!

Edited: Also, if he can put up with my incessant bugging/etc. it is a true testament to his great customer service.

^^ thanks man, I try to be as accomodating as possible.

a quick note...being end of Nov already, if anyone is trying to get a garment before Xmas you'll have to order real soon, preferably before this week's end otherwise it'll be 50/50 if you get it in time.

Is the "order" marked by the payment or the email that says "I want to order ...."?

Damn, the classic herringbone tweed sold out already. Was going to order a Jacket in that as soon as I get paid.

Jason, if there's any chance of sourcing more of the same or any similar tweed in a black/taupe herringbone I'm sure there would be interest. I would order a jacket and probably pants in a heartbeat.
