Identifying an unstructured jacket?

Can you tell by looking if these jackets are necessarily unstructured, or just a bit loose/oversized? Trying to find the technical description for this relaxed vibe that I’m interested in

Pants Measurements for Tailors

I need to add quite a few pants to my wardrobe this fall/winter. What parts of pants can be easily altered vs more difficult? For example, shortening is easy but taking in the waist is harder (and costlier)....

how much can you shorten a tailored jacket?

Hi, I am noticing jackets that may generally fit besides the length. How much can you shorten a jacket and does it depend also on closed vs open quarters? Thank you!...

does anyone have experience with the brand “The Quartermaster”

Hey y’all, I’ve been eyeing this jacket from “The Quartermaster”, as maybe an alternative to the meme jacket from the bear, that has been giving me brainworms for a while now. Does anyone have experience with the brand and can tell me if it’s any good?...

Tailoring for Denim/Button Up Shirts

Looking for tailor service recommendations for shirts made of thicker material, denim/selvedge denim. New to tailoring but typically need sleeves slightly shortened and length slightly shorter (personal preference) for men's L. Unsure how difficult/feasible this is.

What type of shoe is this and how can I style it?

I found these in the back of my dad’s closet unopened. I wanted a casual shoe similar to this (a bit nicer) but not sure what to look up. Is it just a fabric/canvas slip on? Also curious how I can style these and what type and color socks I should wear with it....

slim/straight cut cream and stone grey pants/chinos?

Hi, I’m on the hunt for two pairs of pants for the upcoming fall/winter. A cream colored pair and a stone grey colored pair of chinos in a slim or straight cut. I’m not a big fan of the wide legs quite as much. ...

Jean

What are some good brands for jeans ~$75 or less? I am also struggling finding a good style as well. I'm 6'0 164lbs. Slight belly. I havent worn jeans since I was about 275lbs and had to wear relaxed straight in a stretch fabric because of my thighs.

Let's talk white dress shirt fabric

I am realizing that I am at point in my life where I am having to dress up more for work and friends' weddings. I want to start putting more effort into my clothing. I'm thinking in the next 6 months, I want to invest in a nicer white dress shirt than the CT one I have. This shirt will be worn under suits or sportscoats, so typical business attire. What is the ideal fabric for the situation? I live in the Southwest US, so it is moderately warm. No one likes ironing, but I'm not opposed to it if I occasionally need to do it. Right now it's hypothetical, but I'll still list a budget of ~$200 including alterations. I ask fabric because I've just been browsing Proper Cloth fabrics and other shirt companies to see what's offered....

Moccasin recommendations for wide feet?

I was looking at picking up a pair of moccasins to try out, and I really like the look of this pair from Oak Street (love the color combination of the navy base, and orange sole and rawhide laces). However, I wear a wide width and unfortunately none of the suggested brands in the Wiki's moccasin guide have a similar shoe in wide. So, I was wondering if anyone knew of any other brands I could look up that might have what I'm looking for?
