didn't really wear the jacket but people were asking about it so I may as well show how it turned out after getting a wash

probably need shorter jeans so it doesn't bunch up in the boots but doesn't look too bad as is

The runway models were soft black leather, the the production were hard enameled leather with a corrected grain. The actual last was great, it was classic Raf dress shoe in that sense, but the compromises made to the production model had me on the fence and ultimately I sold them.

Thanks. I wasn't sure I'd like it at first from the online pics but in hand it's really nice. It's cut straight with not much taper so it's not super fitted, but the photo makes it look more pronounced.

I have the same shirt and love it but also think it works best untucked from experience. I like the look, but would prefer a belt with smaller buckle for this particular fit.

This makes me want to go out and buy a club collar shirt. First one I've seen out in the wild done right.

snake - that fit is awesome, pretty cool take on an otherwise plain business casual outfit. did you wear it in a business casual environment? or did you just mention bis cas because its a shirt tucked into trousers? aeglus - that jacket looks awesome now, looked kinda 'stiff' before, not sure how to put it. is it a TOJ? if so, damn you have alot of TOJ leathers haha also, i love cloudy days

sorry aeglus but this looks really bad to me. the ultra tight jeans, the high, tight boots with the really tall heel, the wide collar t-shirt, the almost dress-like length of the tee and the ultra-distressed leather jacket that now looks too small to close all scream "woman" to me. a step in the wrong direction from ur jeans + tee + fake ricks if you are going to wear really tall boots and then tuck your pants into them, the boots have to be flat on the bottom to avoid that feminine equestrian rider look. and it probably shouldn't be jeans. examples from the masters of boot tucks - lanvin:

Aeglus I'm sorry I don't think those boots work. Way too high for you.
