I'd still like the fit even as is if not for the nikes.


stfu. why does it matter what the brands are if it looks good? honestly, tell me what is wrong with that AE flannel looks wise?

lol, did that really warrant an STFU? For real though, it'll look fine once the grease stained Nikes are gone.

Nothing... from what's visible in that photo. Although for all I know it is the exceptional AE piece that is just as good as RRL, flathead etc. in all regards. If that is so, I retract my comment.

As I said, I do like the fit as is except for the nikes.

It just aggravates me when someone judges someones fit by the brand. If it looks good, it looks good, it shouldn't matter if it is from gap, wal-mart, RRL.

(Obviously I'm not saying that gap or ae or whatever is the same quality as RRL, but from a purely sartorial sense it seems lame to judge it just by the name.)

Not a collar, it's actually the hood. And they're not exactly sweats, just wool pants with hemmed cuffs and a drawstring

great work lmaoz, nn, lel!

related: Turns out I can't tuck hitops or boots. I stuff the jeans in, and they look great but they flop right out as soon as I move around. Am I the only one with this problem?

Currently backpacking in Colombia. I went out for some socks but ended up with this:

After a quick shoe change:

Just because you're backpacking doesn't mean you have to look like a bum

Your blazer is clinging to your skin and the shoulder seams are caught in a struggle against your natural shoulders. If you can still exchange for a larger size, definitely do it.
