I am of two minds about this. "Dressed by the Internetzz" has a rather negative vibe about it, and I think that it need to be reserved for the really terrible outfits that are a mismash of brands or pieces heavily hyped on the Internet.

Often, the brands or pieces are just very nice (the first post about the Engineered Garments Bedford was actually one of mine, in my now dead thread "What I would wear if I had $1500K extra"). If people didn't want to share information and enthusiasm or get some ideas, then these fora would lose a large part of their raison d'etre.

That said, some people have rather strong opinions about pieces that they've only seen on the web.

Indeed, "dressed by the internet" should be reserved for some of the **** you see on Superfuture that says Supreme/AA/Dior/Visvim over and over. I mean, it's a nice, solid fit with a good silhouette, but it gets really tired after awhile.

Out and about today, going to visit my girlfriend. Wearing my RAF Squadron Leader's Greatcoat - totally crazy piece of clothing, this incredibly thick melton wool coat tailored by Gieves of 1 Savile Row in the WWII era for some guy called M.H. Keen. It's the kind of thing an officer would wear on a snowy airstrip or a carrier flightdeck, got it from England and it's incredibly badass and crazy and warm. Slightly ridiculous, but I don't care.

Augusto, I;ll just echo the sentiments of Jason....and add that I think this pciture is as good a it gets...the composition of the pictures, the fit of the clothes and just the badassness of that overcoat, outstanding.

Augusto, I notice you are usually wearing bootcut jeans, and always with boots.

But, just curious if you have any tapered or straight leg jeans, or if there is a specific reason you don't like them.

Yeah, it did. I deleted it. Thanks for the props!

I loathe tapered jeans, always have. Presumably, always will. I don't like 'em on girls except with knee boots and never on men.

I love boots, so I buy a lot. But I would like to get some straight-leg jeans - some APCs or 5EPs or whatnot wouldn't go amiss at all, but I just can't afford to splurge on nice denim right now and I want to buy another nice raw pair.

In reality, I only have 2 "SF"-style jeans - Nudie Bjorns and Olas, both at least 3 years old. I also have some R&Rs and some PDCs I wear from time to time.
