smart shirt question

What’s the meta for heavy weight white or off white tees? Prefer boxy fit short length. Not hugely oversized necessarily. No budget, but thinking some heritage brand rather than designer

dumb shirt question

when i wear more fitted shirts they always ride up on my chest like this. does this mean i need to wear bigger shirts or does it mean that i need to start actually wearing bras? or is it just not that big of a deal?

Drier shrunk my longsleeve polo

Hey guys, I fucked up and shrunk my longsleeve PRL vintage polo. The body is still wearable and has actually a nice crop lol, only issue is the sleeves got too short. Is it possible to unshrink it? It's 50% Merino wool 50% acrylic.

Anian overcoat fit check

Picked up the new(?) Anian wool overcoat in charcoal - love the weight and feel so far but want to grab a fit check. I know I want to shorten the sleeves a bit but other than that, looking to see if any other changes should be made. Also - is there any major “donts” with an overcoat? I feel they’re pretty versatile and the rest of the items can kind of dictate the formality of the outfit and the overcoat just fits. I’ve looked at inspo and there doesn’t seem to be a one-style-fits-all...

hey guys, im trying to decide on what boots to wear, i was thinking of the nike manoa or columbia newton ridge as theyre cheap but i also kinda wants timbs, i dont have a specific budget but i wouldnt like to spend more than i would on a pair of timbs, i also really like danner boots which are way too expensive. basically, what boot would u guys reccomend for something that is gonna be good for the wintertime (i live in nj) but is also good for streetstyle and wearing to school or in certain outfits? and i want something in brown too. no secondhand. thanks...

Examples of deconstructing clothes to repurpose the fabric?

Came across a pair of pants thrifting yesterday that were made of this gorgeous flecked tweed. The fit and cut were terrible, but I woke up this morning still thinking about how sick that fabric was. Now my head is full of ways you might cut the seams open and use the fabric for something else. Anyone here done this? Or have pics of other people doing it? Just feeding my curiosity here…...

Is there a limit to how much a tailor could shorten a pair of trousers for you?

Generally the length of trousers that fit me is a 28" length, but that length is harder to come by. So I've been thinking I may buy some longer trousers and then get a tailor to shorten them but I'm wondering if any length of trousers could be shortened to fit me or is there a certain point where it would get awkward and not make sense? I know something like shortening 30" length pants would be fine, but what about beyond that? 32", 34", 36" etc...

Styling feedback: Dark PRL t-shirt, dark jeans, sneakers

So today I tried to replicate another outfit from my inspo. Here I've got a dark PRL t-shirt with some straight jeans, a necklace and some trainers. While it's not an exact 1-1 copy, the major parts from the inspo are here (t-shirt & jeans). What works here and what doesn't?...

What should I do different?

Sorry this is really stupid but what would you change about this? I have darker jeans and what about shirt color. Different flannel color?

Light Blue Suit

What are your thoughts on this colour for a suit? Would you be able to pull it off formally (speaking on conservative terms)?

J press OCBD variations

A semi-follow up to my question about shrinkage, I got a new ocbd for a decent price on eBay to replace the one I had that shrank, and found it had a lot of variations compared to my first one. My original had a button on the back of the collar, is much lighter in color, has a more prominent collar roll, and an older looking care tag. The new one is much darker, has a less prominent collar roll, and no rear collar button. Are there any resources on variations of this shirt? I suspect that because J Press is a pretty trad shop, I happened to get a relatively older version from the pile the first time around....
