Knit blazers y/n? Seems like a nice way not to look out of place being too dressed up wearing a real sports coat
stop posting the nigger
>>18674826Thanks, I bought a pair of 998 NBs since they were on sale and to bring in the season. My first pair of New Balances.
>>18674785Somebody is going to sperg about how Southern Tide isn't trad since it's a new brand
>>18674855Good for them. It's 4chan.
What's the best brand for long sleeved polo shirts (not rugbys)?
larp generalthe entire board laughs at you
>>18675074>all lowercaseShouldn't you be dilating your neovagina right now?
How many months has it been?
Bout to cop
>>18675229>jos a. bankI didn’t think anyone under 65 shopped there.
>>18675235I got a polo from my dead grampa that fits real nice from them so I'ma see watsup
>>18674847I dislike them personally. I really hate items that are kind of halfway to the real thing. If a blazer is called for wear a proper blazer.
Who makes roomy chinos like this with a high rise in 2026? Do the classic fit pants from J. Press fit like pic related? I tried O'Connell's chinos but they were a bit too slim
I've never dressed tip but I'll need to dress nicely for an upcoming work event, like dress pants and a blazer. What can I get that's reasonable quality/price?
>>18675585>the npc question again
>>18675585>Pini Parma and Berg & Berg make good pants but they are more dressy>LL Bean has chinos similar to this but only in light beige>Ralph Lauren sells multiple models that are near identical but overpriced or tapered>Marco O' Polo sells linen pants similar to this but they are see-through>Strokeman's sells a linen cotton blend, but again, more tapered>NN.07 and BOSS sell chinos that are very close, but they are all synthetic blend AND overpricedIt's over>>18675613Suit Supply and Spier & Mackay
>>18675621Looks very gay
>>18675686All of their "100%" wool or cotton stuff still has polyesther lining and pockets and stuff.I write a harassment email/linkedin message every 4 months to a few employees at random about this.You guys should help me write more harassment emails about plastic in clothing.
>>18675585QRD on the o'connell's chinos? Do they match the size chart? I was looking to buy a pair in plain front and double pleated.
>>18675743They will always tell you vintage trousers that were produced in Italy and France all had cotton-polyester lining and no one ever complained until we found out about microplastics.
>>18675585J.Crew Giant Fit Chinos
>>18675955If you want to look like ass that’s a great suggestion
>>18675585Timecatcher (something like Bronson, can buy both brands on Olderbest) has a new model. 34cm front rise. Ignore the huge belt in the pic
>>18676022>Bronson
>>18676038Yeah you're right, I've already been through the "bro the legs are short but they have 5cm surplus" and then you have an ugly white line where the hem was undone.That being said some of their models are longer now. 1955 Classic Selvedge Biker Jeans have 84cm inseam for example.
>>18676238Also the model in the pic I posted is 183cm tall and the inseam is 77cm - not that bad.
>>18675613just buy quality brands off ebay or poshmark
>>18676238>>18676239>inseam instead of length
>>18675585Buck Mason, alternatively RL Andrew pants on ebay
>>18676238>have to buy trousers intended for cuffing and wear them uncuffed to get a decent inseam
>>18674785
Should I get a Brooks Brothers "Friday Shirt" if I want something I can wear untucked in the summer with shorts
>>18677709their miusa line is short too, at least mine are and they're ~10 years old and still look great. I want a few more untuckable shirts so I'm also looking for options. It seems like most high $ ones need to be tucked in unless you get them hemmed, but I don't have any real reference pics.>untucked ocbd ishygddt this is not trad muffy will crucify youI don't care. Quit being a dweeb.
Whats a good dark brown derby/blucher in the $300-400 price range?
>>18677789I know the Lands End "Sail Rigger" shirts are a decent length to wear untucked and they're super cheap
Is J Press as bad as the Redditors say right now?
>>18678196J Press has always been pretentious historyless crap
>>18678299I mean the quality, goofball
>>18675229this style of polo just scream current "old money" fashion trend to me. When I see guys wearing it, I assume they have no idea about actual trad ivy style
>>18674847There are other options among blazers you can wear to dress down to avoid looking like a clown in something like this. I may be too European but to me it seems impossible to be overdressed with a blazer. If you want to dress it down you can leave out the tie.
>>18679273Unfortunately yes. I pity the people who have been wearing these for years because they liked the way they looked in Goodfellas and now have to see every spic and nigger copy their look from Zara. It used to be cool, now it screams H&M TikTok "Old Money Core".
>>18674785>>18674785any good places to shop, especially secondhand, near Princeton and additionally in Manhattan? I'm traveling.
Are there any suede bucks under $500? I used to have a pair of the kenton bucks from J Crew but they don't make them anymore. Also open to any recommendations of shoes that would fill a similar role. Allen Edmonds has a suede wingtip that looks beautiful but my Park Aves are not my favorite fit and its the same last. J Press has some for $585 and Grant Stone doesn't have a tan.
>>18679866Try looking at TB Phelps, they even have the classic red sole.

>>18681309I'm sure you have a bigger stomach.
Trad Ivy Prep? More like Larp Eerie Gay
>>18679866
>>18674785>slim fit jackets don't fit me any longerThis is because of my big and manly shoulders right guys?
>>18679866I think you're a degenerate pedophile and you should either seek professional help and work on this mental illness or immediately kys
>>18674785Let this be your regular reminder to use online shop feedback emails to harass manufacturers to use less of the 98% cotton 2% elastane crap
>>18682610pedophile?
>>18682610Are you ok? She’s hot af.
>>18682613I was lookin at the Asphalte tough trouser and their composition section mentions 100% cotton but description says "touch of elastane". I was wondering how come they write 100% then, turns out elastane is < 1%.> Thank you for reaching out to us, and you are correct, the elasthane part is less than 1% which is why we indicate 100% cotton. The Elasthane part is strictly the minimum to ensure that the trousers don't feel rough.Why man, who cares if it feels rough
>>18682650Holy fucking kek. The absolute state.
>>18682650>> Thank you for reaching out to us, and you are correct, the elasthane part is less than 1% which is why we indicate 100% cotton. The Elasthane part is strictly the minimum to ensure that the trousers don't feel rough.>Why man, who cares if it feels roughI have a reminder for every 3 months to write a dozen emails about this issue. I also vary my email adresses. Am not through my own emails adresses yet but I will probably create throwaway accounts about it too.Never stop the harassment.
>>18678161thanks for the suggestion>>18678319I bought a chambray shirt and a cotton knit sweater on sale from jpress. Overall quality was ok if they're on sale imo. I wouldn't pay full price. This is the best pic I have of them without having to get up.The shirt is mediocre honestly. A noticeable step down in construction and overall feel vs other more premium options. This is not their made in USA line, so I can't compare.The knit sweater is made in USA and has a good feel and construction to it, but sleeve sizing makes me feel like a wizard wearing it. I buy L sizes to fit my shoulders.
I was thinking of getting my first pair of flannel trousers. I wanted these mid-gray ones (middle ones) but they're sold out in my size. Thoughts on either of the other ones? (light grey or light brown).I'm thinking the light grey is too light and would have too much contrast for a lot of winter things. I have a fuckload of light khaki/stone/beige/sand/etc pants so the light brown could either fit right in to existing outfits or would just be worth it. I have some light grey chinos and never seem to use them since they're so light.It's 8% cashmere / 92% wool and 350g so I'm not sure if the durability would be an issue.
