one woman we saw was "pretty sure that's a woman's shirt you're wearing," and the sales guy in the Clark's store (don't ask) assaulted me as soon as we walked in, wanted to know what "that" was. Me: What are what? Him: The shoes, dog, what else - I work in a shoe store man I'm into shoes [sic]. pretended like he knew who kris van assche was, and then said that my kicks were "hype." two thumbs up for me. he had a tie bar, so he probably knew everything about style.

I like this although I think the trousers stack a little more than is ideal.

Not keen on that shirt fit.

Not sure what to do about these pants. I know SF hates on cuffs big times, but they look marsupialed uncuffed. Thoughts, please?

Cuffs look okay to me - I'd have thought you could get a taouch more taper out of the legs though, but I'm no tailor...

Kiwi do an aerosol suede shampoo that works fine. A suede eraser gets rid of tougher marks.

I find this to be true. For example, while pants that are slightly too long or sagged slightly too much can subtly make someone's legs seem to be shorter, extremely cropped pants are so obviously shorter than necessary that it kind of takes leg length out of consideration (see aeglus' fits with the +J pants) and the same thing can apply with extreme stacking. Ditto with drop crotch pants and very sagged jeans, and both sneaker and boot tucks.

If Scott's legs are short, his style that makes leg length a non-issue is I think one effective way of keeping that from being a distraction. I don't dress like him but I like his style, including this last fit of his. His legs might look longer if he wore, say, wide leg repro khakis with big redwing engineer boots, but I like that he didn't choose to go down that path.

You will never catch me in dockers and redwings, sorry man. But thanks for the kind words.

So great, MoK. I remember seeing those Red Wings in a recent pic of yours and loving them. Admittedly, I'd hoped the flannel in today's spoiler would be a red buffalo check or some such thing.
