Style feedback on todays fit.

I am currently scratching my head trying to make this pair of trousers work, and im still not quite certain whether this works with the shoes and jacket. Also interested to hear any ideas on styling these trousers in general. Thanks in advance πŸ™‚

I do feel like I could go either way. The boots I don’t think are the right shape for the pants which looks like they have a slight taper. I’d maybe want a slightly longer or just drapey jacket with more drama? The vantablack boots I think also make the fit quite bottom-heavy

Yeah, I think the heel and the very black colour dont work well with the pants. I think the angle doesn't help either, bc these pants have a 11,5'' inseam and are as straight as it gets

re: jacket: perhaps a db jacket worn open might be a good call in terms of drape and drama i think I have one saved still

i think those might not be the best boot for those particular pants; as it stands the effect is "trad styling in fun colors + boots" compared to some of your other fits which thread the needle better

I’m throwing my vote behind boots

YakkeksOPβ€’4d ago
yeah, I guess the boots are a bit incongrous here

Even a dusty black with a less dramatic shape I think would work better

Yeah the colour of the boot is just so dark

or rather the boots and pants together the full cinnamon suit and those boots might be cool

Boot cut jean would be cool here

The pants and tailoring create a bunch of nice long lines and then the boots come in and go s w o o p

Yeah, maybe I gotta dig up my belgian loafers to wear with those pants.

pants might slot in nicely in either of these fits (even with the boots in 2)

Yeah, i subbed the trousers for my greencast bootcuts later when i hopped on the bike, that usually works very well. I can see the boots in 2, but the yuketens? hold on, gotta try that. tried with the yuketens and the jacket rn and the pants feel too dressy and close in colour. But i think the brown boots might work...

Apologies for the bad lighting, but how do we feel about this for a more spring/early summer take?

the jacket would work better with the pants if it were a bit wider, but it is what it is. yeah, I underestimated just how black black roughout is compared to black smooth leather. Makes them kinda hard to work with on occasion, but I love them regardless. Anyway, thank y'all for the feedback, def some stuff to think about and some new Ideas what to do with those. Also really appreciate how good you are at putting stuff into very concise term, bc this was very helpful.

I think with a more saturated colour pant the boots would work really well. Indigo denim or a chocolate brown corduroy or something

i like this - throw on a braided belt, maybe some more rings if inclined, and you're set
