Looking for jackets with a specific collar type
Hi all, I'm looking for a jacket that has a collar that looks like an upturned suit lapel. Would anyone happen to know if there's a brand that offers this style? I'm also specifically looking for it to be in black.
I'm not certain if this is the same as just taking a regular blazer with a lapel and flipping it out.
Also, I'd like something that doesnt have elastic cuffs and waist

Narrow belt with gold hardware
I'm trying to replace a vintage belt I have that is currently falling apart but I can't find anything with quite the same vibe. My criteria is:
- Black leather, preferably with some shine and embossed with a croc or snakeskin effect. Patent leather can also potentially work
- Less than 1" wide but more than 0.5" wide
- Small/minimal gold-tone buckle. Preferably square but the shape is less important than not being bulky
- Budget $200, around or under $100 preferred. Happy to buy secondhand...
looking for new commuting bag
I’m looking at messenger bags for a commuting bag. My biggest requirement is I’d like to have at least one water bottle pocket that can fit a 32 oz Nalgene (2 would be optimal but can make do if not). There’s a load of cool options out there but finding one with the water bottle pocket is proving difficult.
I enjoy the look of this one especially but those side pockets look tiny

French cuffs inside suit jacket -- too bulgy?
I had a custom suit made a while ago, and I want to wear it for my wedding. Since it's my wedding, it seems more appropriate to wear a shirt with French cuffs, but I didn't have a (non-tux) white shirt with French cuffs that fit well. So I had a couple made via Indochino, one with barrel cuffs and one with French cuffs.
However, I feel like the French cuffs are maybe too big, and are stretching the suit jacket sleeves a bit. When I brought it to the Indochino tailor, they suggested unbuttoning the first sleeve button, which helps a little, but I'm not sure if that's appropriate for a formal occasion like a wedding.
Attached are a few pictures with the French cuffs shirt, as well as a couple with the barrel cuffs shirt for comparison. (Note that the cufflinks are just placeholders -- if I wear this shirt, I'll probably pick out a better one.)...
What type of footwear for a date?
Background: late 30s male living in Canada. Budget: $300-400 CAD (max).
I'm looking for some footwear that I could wear on a date to a restaurant, or an art gallery or museum, or something that is a little bit more formal than just a walk in the park. Something that could be paired with chinos and a tucked in shirt, with MAYBE a blazer on top of it (but probably not). I'm not talking about dress shoes that would go with a tie as I'm not aiming for that level of formality - I just want "the next step up" from sneakers so I don't look too casual. Would also like to be able to wear this footwear when out and about and trying to be a bit more classy than sneakers too.
I'd REALLY like to be able to "try before I buy" or at least have free (or very affordable return) returns: I prioritize comfort in whatever I wear as I know if it feels uncomfortable I'll be looking for reasons to avoid it....
Tie color for my wedding suit
Hey everyone! Recently purchased my wedding suit, which is a lovely dark green (ignore the wrinkles, it was straight out of the shipping box). My groomsmen are in black suits with dark green ties. I was thinking of going with a champagne color for a tie, but was wondering what people think.
Anyone got any thoughts on how to style these big weird boots?
They are Camperlab Traktori zip boots.
I have a few ideas of my own of what to do then but would be interested to hear any others. If anyone has any fit pics they can share that would be great.

Cowboy Cut Alternatives
Hey all. I’m 6’1, 30 waist and 34 inseam. Just ordered and had to send back a pair of Wrangler 13MWZ Cowboy Cuts. Bought them in a 31 waist in order to get the 34 leg but this caused a build up of material in the seat/crotch of the jeans and it just looked a bit shit. Wondering if anyone has any vintage or modern alternatives they could suggest. Budget of about £60.

Chelsea boots with mint green - light or dark brown?
I'm looking to get a mint green linen suit (the left colour in this pic) and want to get some brown Chelsea boots to wear with it or with some blue jeans. Should I go for a light brown as something summery, or would a darker brown be better for this shade of mint?
does this work good a separate blazer, or does it look like an orphaned suit jacket?
Trying to figure out if there’s a point in getting a more casual navy blazer (patch pockets, gold buttons, swelled edges)
Not sure if this jacket I have really works as a blazer or not...
Dressing well for my first time talking to a girl I like?
So, there's this girl in my uni class. I've been working up the courage to approach her for a few days now but I'm self conscious about my appearance. I'm a big dude, 6'1 270 lbs, former fit now chunky but not roly poly type fat. But since weight loss isn't a quick fix I'm trying to make up for that in other categories, mostly grooming and clothes.
I have some nice clothes but I feel like a lot of them aren't exactly flattering or don't feel like something that would stick out to a girl necessarily. I wanna dress better then average but not in a tryhard way, more like I've shown that I care about how I look and put in effort. I'm on a budget so I usually get my clothes from Hudson's Bay or H&M. Any help is appreciated. Thanks...
Styling advice/Looking for UK shops to buy clothes in this style
Hello, I'm looking for some criticism/advice for this style. Also wondering if people have any good places to shop these kind of clothes in the UK? I don't really like spending money, so my budget is around the ASOS/Uniqlo level (but if I find something i really like then I'm willing to spend a bit more). Ideally I would prefer to shop in person so I can try the clothes on, but online is fine too. Thanks a lot
cropped jackets to wear with high rise carpenter denim
Hi,
Looking for recommendations on the above! Planning on wearing these jeans with my Indy boots.
Thank you...
for check, jeans and long sleeve shirt.
I feel like the arms are a bit loose in the shirt, and the pants maybe a size too big.
gifted black shirt - howto help
Hi,
I got gifted a decent black shirt but no receipt for return or exchange.
I attached a pic of it, and I can get it tailored to fit better.
I read that keeping it casual is easier to make it work, but what options should I look at to salvage fits with it?...
