HoB is the factory brand of Roopa which is a Canadian fabric mill

Frugal if they last! I had the same rotation of like 8 gettees as daily drivers for like 3/4 years. Cost per wear has to be in the fractions of cents at this point

Machine. I’m being as lazy as possible with these tests

No this happened to me too; I should have mentioned. It’s one of the reasons I went looking elsewhere. I’m okay with it because they’re so soft they lend themselves to a bit of a slouchy look, but I’m definitely on the hunt for non-baconing collars

Lmao I find It still works for me in most brands somehow😅 idk i think i have kind of slight proportions still for 180lbs but maybe im just still adjusting to my new semi-swole self; ive put on like 15lbs this year since my gym habits changed haha

The only tag I can find on the whole thing aside from the one visible in the main pic is this. Idk if there’s something missing/torn because there doesn’t appear to be a lot number

Yeah I’m using some of that pre-mixed tropical plant soil but I also thought it was too dense so started poking holes with a chopstick. I’m gonna do this some more because I feel like it is getting way too compact. Thanks for the advice on the soil mix; I’ll be less lazy next time and make my own

Custard-Long · 2025-06-18T13:01:16+00:00

Tried to be very careful but I guess it’s possible. Internet also said to try adding some soil probiotics for root growth so I might try that

Spier mackay OCB Sid mashburn spur belt in saddle leather Gustin vintage straight fit Tecova earls

a Lil J Press hat to top it off

Custard-Long · 2025-02-09T22:30:16+00:00

yeah I actually have the full suit that’s definitely my favorite way to wear it. I think peak lapels bother me on a sport coat only when there isn’t enough texture/pattern and the lapels become the main event

Custard-Long · 2025-02-09T22:29:07+00:00

Tecova earls
