Kunk's new leather looks good. Fit is just right.

AR's fit is good. I suspect that others would be more inclined to agree if he had Aeglus quality pics, although I don't want to start a debate on that subject as it has been covered sufficiently before.

Agree. I prefer hi's over lows almost every time.

I'm not disagreeing, but the contrast from the white laces / sole on an otherwise dark fit works for me here. As long as laces are white / black / grey they really shouldn't matter in 95% of fits... it's so minuscule.

Eh... the shoes may tend to look more badass but the leg-shortening effect may be detrimental to the fit. I think I like this version more than when I wore basically the same thing with Rafstros but I'll do it again this weekend and see what people think.

Anyway my painted GATs just got here so I swapped out for those anyway. Lovin' life

PP, love that last fit. That coat is fantastic. I settled for the navy version since i couldn't find grey in my size anywhere at the time and don't regret it.

I know we're on a forum about fashion and fits getting discussed in this thread is the purpose of its existence, but damn some of you guys analyze **** way too damn much. AR's last fit is case in point. White shoe laces throwing off the overall fit? Really? It's a fine fit in my eyes, nothing too special about it, but all looks and fits well.

I like this teger. What Aldens are those? I really want a pair similar to these.

Doctor! Doctor! Kunk's transformation into Lex Luthor is complete! There's just one thing we couldn't change, Kunk's swag.

I think this looks sweet. The second pics show the proportions aren't quite there. I think you could wear your pants just a little lower. Also a shirt slightly longer than the jacket would make the proportions much better. You need to swag out your posture. You have steezey clothes with a svb stance. Overall it is a solid fit though.

ar, one of my all-time favourites from you. sneakers work very well, and i think swapping in black laces might actually look strange.

I am the last person to say **** like this regarding fits, but I actually +1 the black shoelace comment, although in a perfect world the shoes wouldn't be patent, just regular leather.

Do enjoy purple oxfords, but if the pic is an indication of how it looks in real life, it's popping a little too much for the rest of the fit, I think it would look better with a more muted color. If it's just camera trickery and the shirt does not appear as bright IRL, then good on the fit.
