How did guys wear suits in the summer in the 60s? Linen suits are barely wearable in the heat, but anything lined seems like a death sentence, even if it's just lining in the arms
>>18752864The materials were Linen plus weather wasnt the same before global warming.
>>18752864Tropical wool jackets
>>18752864man's not hot
>https://www.ralphlauren.com/men-footwear-shoes/heritage-court-ii-leather-sneaker/0075393777.html?utm_source=organiccse&utm_medium=GooglePLAI want shoes similar to this to wear with jeans, any suggestions? >Why not just get these?A lot of my other stuff is polo
>>18752864Seersucker cotton and especially linen feels exactly like being naked. You can easily skip the jacket on the hottest days.
I got a guy who can make me jackets out of near anything I’d like. The question is, single or double vent?
>>187528641920s style summer suit - the material on the coat seems a bit thick but notice all the foundation garments are linen.
>>18756710double is kino
>>18752864Summer gloves
>>18752864all about the material. Linen shirts breathe rather easily. I am quite partial to The Row's Men's Summer 2026 line as they use that material incorporated into the style.
>>18752864
>>18756743Why? With a double vent the jacket can’t spread so don’t you end up sitting on it?
>>18752741Autumn/Winter is coming. Anons please talk me out of buying this harris tweed coat before I'm stupid enough to buy it.
>>18756710Double vent is considered classier as it doesn't "fishtail" (when the single vent spreads and shows your ass)
>>18757142are you 45-50 and look like this model?if so, cop if you're in your 20's... don't.
>>18757145Believe it or not I actually am a 48 white guy with mostly gray hair but I don't have this models looks. Still cop?
Is the quality really that bad?They used to make really good chinos.
>>18757153cop
I'm not a Trad/Ivy/Prep guy and I don't have a blazer in my wardrobe at the moment but want one, looking at Kamakura's site at the moment >wool, cotton, linen, etc>2 button, 3 button>structured, unstructured>blue, black, brown, etcWtf do I get
>>18757170Assuming you live somewhere with a non-tropical climate and have cooler seasons: Wool + 2 button + unstructured + blue = classic first blazer.
>>18756747Sadly no one seems to make voile shirts anymore which are arguably even better. I have a 30s/40s era arrow tuxedo shirt with a body made of voile fabric and it lets me keep cool even with a heavy weight wool barathea tuxedo jacket more suited to winter than summer. Can only imagine if I actually went and made the jacket in summer weight. Only downside is you can't take off your jacket or you look pretty naked.
>>18756710I prefer no vent
>>18756743>>18757144Damn. My first jacket, which just arrived, is single vent because I didn’t really think when he asked me. I know this isn’t really trad or ivy or prep but I have no idea what style category it belongs to. It’s made out of two different kimonos. I suppose it’s not possible to tailor a jacket into double-vent, is it?
>>18757243You can change it if there is no lining over the vents, but it will look weird. In your case it may be doable if you find similar fabrics. Good luck finding a tailor who wants to do it
>>18757246How much fabric would be needed? My tailor did include a small bit of it, maybe just a 2x6 strip
>>18757243Most people who go to the circus won't care whether your jacket is single- or double-vent. They're just there to have a good time.
>>18757284you need at least 2x6 for extension of the side part, on both sides. This is the one that sits under the back panels and will be visible when the vents open. Ideally, you'd also have the same amount also on the inner side, where it connects to the back panel. So you'd need 4 such strips. Closing the existing single vent should be possible. You cannot take the material from there and use it for the side vents, without it looking strange. My suggestion would be to get a very similarly fabric, maybe even just a plain red one, just for the vents. Best discuss it with the alterations tailor. They will probably decline it, mostly because adding the vents there is a non-standard operation for them and they usually want easy and fast work. Second, even if they can do a vent in such a way the result may look strange and leave you dissatisfied, so that's also a risk for them.
Bought myself a Barbour from the 90s.As expected, it smells old, like an old book or a crayon... It's not a particularly bad smell, but it's not something you'd want to smell like.I wonder if there's a candle, incense or something that smells like that because I keep sniffing it like a drug addict.
>>18757467>waxed jacket smells of wax
>>18757657yes, very good observationbut it's not the same smell of a wax candle
I was browsing this one website for clothing and this dude is literally wearing panties? A g-string?
>>18752741What type of women are attracted to /tip/?
>>18759596Any. You guys gotta be handsome, rich, and funny.
Where can I find some olive chinos in Europe for under 200 eurobux?
>>18759826C&A has them for 30 or 35 euros, but the pockets are a little shallow
>>18759831And rise too lowWould that it were so easy
>>18752864everybody else is wrongthey simply got used to being hot
this is your aura
im so damn sartorial
>>18757243wow this is hideous
>>18760497Talk shit post fit
>>18757467John Barbour
>>18760494He's got a good looking tuxedo.
>>18758099Thongs unironically makes your butt look really nice and tight since they lift the inner cheeks up while keeping your package compact.That's why they were originally invented, to make your ass look nice even while wearing normal pants over them.
>>18758099Has to just be an unfortunate crease on the left and caused by the pocket on the right, no?
I wish we could talk about socioeconomic class dynamics on these threadsNot in a commie way but in an anthropologist way
Why do I feel so self conscious walking around in a blazer even though I'm fit and used to seeing anime characters in school uniforms?
>>18759826made in europe those don't exist outside of salesI remember bronson mfg having some cheap trousers but their sizing is finnicky and returns are difficult
>>18761822And they're made for gook midgets
>>18761757It's because you're not used to wearing it
>>18752741Today’s trad outfit is a Uniqlo button down shirt with a vintage 1940s Elsa Schiaparelli orange and white silk tie with white chinos and George cox Chelsea boots. The brown frock coat is from Loch Hart, a Scottish brand and the other accessories are a black Varzar flatcap and a Cartier wristwatch to put the whole thing together.
>>18762134are the stripes acutally little bumps or is it just an illusion thanks to the black lines?
>>18752741From left to right:>George Cox’s Chelsea boots>Varzar flatcap>Schiaperelli necktie>Cartier Tank wristwatch>Loch Hart frock coat This is definitely a more turn of the century - 20s inspired outfit.
>>18762143It’s an illusion to appear that way. Schiaparelli was at one time Coco Chanel’s main rival and she experimented with avant- grade designs like that which play with illusion and perception. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elsa_Schiaparelli
I need some beater shoes that are fast to take on and off for casual wear for both summer and winterThinking white canvas sneakers with elastic laces for summer and some kind of Chelsea style rain boot for winter Thoughts?
>>18763783I mean yeah either a sneaker or a loafer for summerand then for winter a boot of your choosing adjusted for the weather you experience
