A Civic? Let's not go too far. At least it's a hybrid. Nice fit, Nii.

Most of my poses involve me looking like some kind of raging bull, so, compared to me, ** position is a definite step up! Actually, ** position is a step up compared to pretty much anything, really.

I would have worn brown and tan specs today, but it is just too early for that. The suit, I can get away with since it is tan and people have already busted out the tan poplin down here...but Spectators (which look awesome with this), say summer to me.

It's frustrating.


Well, it is light colored and it has wide peaked lapels. Those too elements are going to naturally give it a wider appearance. To be quite frank, I am done worrying about looking blocky, boxy or like a barrel. I am what I am, and as long as I am wearing clothes that fit, I am done sweating it.

I would leave it alone only because I'm not sure if you can successfully add cuffs. But if you do get any new pants I would suggest you consider it unless it is a trim casual pant.


Oh, I cuff most everything. These have plenty of room to cuff, if I so choose.

I absolutely understand. The suit is still very, very nice.

You, NOBD, and Nii are really bringing the Spring heat! My fit is in my computer at home, so it'll have to wait to be posted until I get home from work.

Just a simple "I don't like your tie" would have sufficed

It will be around 80 today. Spring and Fall are by far the nicest seasons here..and too short.

I considered a white shirt, because I have a nice sky blue silk knit tie that looks great with this. In all sincerity, I need some new white shirts. I have been slowly upgrading my shirts and have not managed this one essential yet.

Thanks, man. Of course, my camera adds like 30 pounds as well.

He looks like a man wearing jeans. Rock on, Spoo.


I am far from an expert, but I prefer a darker wash, and it may just be the way he is standing, but they look a little full in the leg.

NOBD & Nii - knocked it out of the park fellas! Well done.

ThinWhiteDuke Not feeling that jacket or the PS here. I like the rest of the 'fit very much...although, I wonder how well the shirt pattern flows into the pant pattern...

lighter washed jeans are not bad. they provide a contrast especially with navy or gray jackets. its just that it is easier to screw up with lighter wash jeans than with the dark washes.

still hunting for my go-to light wash jeans.
