Appreciate the critique. This wasnt purchased becuase of SF "hype," though. I liked the fabric, its a comfortable fit, and it is my only unlined, unconstructed, and unpadded jacket so I am fine with it cause im not wearing it everyday. I have mentioned before that I realize the look is a little slouchy, but it "feels" comfortable to me.

I really like the combination you made, it looks great but I think that you would benefit of slimmer pants. Your SC is quite supressed and the paints are fuller cut, slimming down the pants would make the look even better, in my opinion.

Yeah, the Blazer is Brooks Brothers Black Fleece, so it is actually Thom Browne.

Thanks again!

Thanks, I think appearance of the suppression is exaggerated by putting my hand in my pocket. But you would not be alone in your calling for slimmer pants.

I think your pants are slim enough, TC. Where people most likely would like to see them slimmer is in the taper. This, however, is purely a matter of personal taste.

Yeah, sorry Spoo, coming from a guy like myself that is not afraid of bold trousers, those are just awful.

Looks like a guy in a sweater and a pair of jeans. Nothing remarkable here at all. Shoes are a nice color, but that's about the only thing worth commenting on.

Thanks, man. The taper (and narrow leg openings for that matter) is something I regard as a bit of a fad and something I haven't bought into, even though I think they would make for more SF-approved photos. I think I get too much of the drumstick effect with a lot of taper, and I find the straighter leg to be a little more classic to my eye. I do like the tapered look on a lot of people around here, though.
