Yeah, I don't really get the pigeon toed pose that seems somewhat popular. More so at sufu than here thankfully though.

I think it's sexy. You guys worry too much.

From a kinesics point of view however, it could come off as an inferior or submissive pose. The pose almost says "Is this okay?" It's kind of when people say "It's nice out, isn't it?". Confirmation seeker, hence my natural tendency as a male to think it's sexy.

JD May I think the few things that are throwing it off a bit for me are:

- showing too much sleeve
- not sure a double breasted suit is the best option for your body type? You seem to be pretty tall and muscular... While in the other picture you posted your not wearing a suit, but that style of suit jacket seems to fit you a lot better.
- I would probably hem the pants a bit but that is personal prefence and dont feel they are that off
- personally not a huge fan of the hair/glasses combo, something about it throws me off

I don't think it looks that bad though, just things I thought could be improved on.

SoCal sell a pair of shoes and get a better camera mate; you wear some of the more interesting items but can't see them that well.

Phat Guido that is just awesome, great colour combo with the shirt/sweater. Do you buy a lot of your stuff in Sydney? Over here in perth its a struggle!

- most of my stuff is bought during my travels, Sydney (or Australia) do not have much in my size)

- nothing wrong with Socal's camera, I use the same for my pics here - he just needs more natural liht & a steady hand (or do what I do, use the 2 sec timer function)

I guess to each their own but I just don't see how. The shoulders hit right, there isn't any pull on the buttons, it isn't fitted to where you can make out the body underneath... Are you sure you didn't mean to quote an old photo of Eason?

I can see where Gaucho's coming from, but it's not the shoulders or chest that create the impression of smallness but the length-- it's just slightly shorter than what's common with button-ups. I still think it works, though.

For this shirt in particular I think the length and fit goes well with the other details that are downsized on it, namely the collar.

+1. I guess I see the point about the length, but I actually think the length is good, too.

bobo - shorts are definitely you.

LK - nice fit ( the dior is nice )

warlock - it works, though i wish for better tapering ( but this could be influenced by looking at all those GS fits )

PG - wish there was a better shot of the bag ( bv )

stazy - besides the length the shirt works, just a different look.
