2: Begg cashmere cardigan
3: Robert W. Stolz Loden Coat
I’m just imagining you putting all of this on at the same time to smoke a little cigar
Its giving drunk aristocrat
Definitely Guidis- so many uncertainties buying used, and so expensive at retail
1. RRL belted cardigan
2. PWVC Flight Jacket in navy
3. Ring Jacket for the Armoury Suit
Hmm I could think about this for a while but off the top of my head
1. A pair of straight fitting 40s black moleskine Le Mont St Michel pants with enough wear to match my jacket
2. A pair of really well worn 50s or earlier buckle back French corduroy pants with a 10" opening
3. A true vintage Levi's type 1 with really prominent honeycomb fades on the arms
1. A custom made leather jacket
2. Werkstatt München tool traces cuban bracelet
3. An unlimited supply (so I can replace them when they wear out) of Nike Free RN 5.0s from 2018; they changed them and now they're not as good and they don't come in the colorway I want - WHY DO SHOE COMPANIES CHANGE A PERFECTLY GOOD SHOE
Already said by others but the SEH Kelly balmacaan, RRL cardigan, and, because I’m a dork, the Buzz Rickson William Gibson MA-1
3 things is too hard to think of, but I'd wear the shit out of a bespoke wool coat. Why is finding one that fits so goddamn hard
Undercover x NGE Eva 01 jacket, Margiela army green high top tabis, and vintage mankind “have a nice day” shirt
Woah that nge collab is dope 
Someone else photo but the Eva 02 jacket is insane too. I think they did a Eva 00 one too
ok guys now I want THIS
1. Skip Yowell's prototype Superbreak
2. Deadstock levis bush pants in large lad size
3. the sruli recht skin ring
I hate this
i love it, extremely evil energy to it 
It makes me so uncomfortable
One Ring to Revolt Them All
he used to have a video up with the surgery involved in its creation, super interesting art object
Surgery? 
its a strip of skin cut off from his stomach, i think they had to go in anyways to remove his pancreas or something but he had them snip some extra off to make a ring 👻
oh no
I regret asking
i was trying to think of some one-of-a-kind examples for the prompt 
I wouldn't be cute in the bjork goose dress unfortunately
I wouldn't be cute in the bjork goose dress unfortunatelythat is a cult initiation item
deeply cursed
1) Clinch engineer 2) Alden longwing shell 8 3) A good glasses frame (I have a hard time finding one fit me)
1) a casual suit in that silk-linen tweed material that lives in my head
2) the gloriously wide wale colbo cords
3) a J Press uni stripe OCBD that's already broken in and super soft
Ah shit I need those cords too
1) a bespoke Savile row suit. 2) a perfect pair of loafers. 3) a casual jacket, such as patchwork denim, my current grail.
Of course, the problem with #1 is that I would also need shirts, ties, shoes, and accessories of comparable quality, which would not be cheap, even if I had a free $10k suit. And I'm not even confident I know enough to specify the "right" suit, regardless of cost.
If LHS are your perfect pair of loafers, I have some tips for ya
Yes, they just might be. First step is probably figuring out my size. Then I can start looking secondhand
you have unlimited money
There's saint Crispin, for one
Yeah, LHSs probably aren't my perfect pair. But back in reality I don't have unlimited money, and secondhand LHS seems like a good choice.
Unlimited money means I get a custom last made from a mold of my feet, if YouTube shoe making videos are credible.
For a loafer though? Hmm
Yeah I think that's what bestmaokaina got back on the subreddit
Not these but look how shiny- https://saintcrispins.com/products/puristic-plain-loafer-with-tassels
Tassel loafers don't look right to me without the lacing on the outside
