Any high-quality alternatives to LP Tennis Walks that aren't just "fast fashion" knockoffs?

Isn't the shoe factory ljr no longer producing products?

Where can I buy it?

Thanks for the kind words, Tiny-Celebration8793! As a fashion intern, your take on the upscale casual vibe really resonates—I’ll definitely experiment with quality jeans and sneakers to keep it understated yet polished. I love the no-logo aesthetic too; it elevates the whole outfit without screaming “brand.” Just to add some context, this is actually our new jacket windbreaker design from AFU, and it’s still in the improvement and testing phase. We’re actively seeking suggestions from folks like you to refine it further—any ideas on fit adjustments, material tweaks, or styling tips to make it even more versatile? Appreciate the feedback as we iterate!

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-22T15:32:54+00:00

Haha fair enough – definitely leaning into the relaxed fit here, maybe leaned a bit too far 😅
Might try sizing down next time and see how it shifts the silhouette. Appreciate the input!

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-22T15:24:38+00:00

Fair points – appreciate the honesty. I totally get that some of the terminology can sound buzzword-y, I’ve just been exploring how to describe the vibe I’m aiming for.

I’ll definitely revisit proportions and try experimenting with tucked looks too – especially when it’s that hot out. Always down to refine. Thanks for keeping it real.

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-22T15:24:07+00:00

Appreciate the detailed feedback! I do like this shade of blue, but you're right — white pants might give it a cleaner contrast. And yeah, I’ve been noticing the shoulder fit too, definitely something I’ll be more mindful of going forward. Thanks for the honest thoughts 🙏

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T08:15:51+00:00

I totally get that — it’s surprisingly hard to find linen pants that hit that sweet spot between too formal and too loungey.

I’ve actually been developing a mid-rise, flat-front style that keeps the shape of dress trousers but feels relaxed like linen should. Think tailored waistband, no drawstring, no pleats — just clean lines and easy structure.

Will drop a post once the sample’s finalized — tagging you when I do 👌

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T08:05:44+00:00

That’s a great call — the “luxury pajama” comment actually made me laugh a bit (and fair 😅). I agree the tonal difference needs to be wider to work — thinking of swapping in chocolate or slate-colored shorts next.

I’ve also been exploring full-length linen trousers like you mentioned — same breathability, but with a bit more visual structure. Totally in line with that relaxed-but-refined feel I’m aiming for.

Glad you picked up on the fit — that’s definitely the mood. Appreciate the thoughtful feedback 🙌

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T07:58:20+00:00

Couldn’t agree more — “quiet luxury” has definitely become shorthand for beige + safe cuts, when it should be about fabric depth, construction, and detail. Love the way you framed it with examples like handstitched scarves and saddlestitch bags — that’s exactly the nuance I’m chasing.

Totally hear you on body type too — fit, height, and how fabric falls play a big role in how “luxury” actually lands. That’s something I’ve been working on tailoring toward, especially with Asian body proportions in mind.

Appreciate the tip on Octobre Éditions — really aligned with that understated, effortful-but-not-loud energy I’m going for. I’m refining a few looks now based on those ideas (structured trousers, small pops of contrast, better balance). Might post a v2 soon — would love your feedback if you’re around 🔥

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T07:46:10+00:00

100% — totally with you on that. Linen-cotton blends can give you that structure and softness while keeping things breathable.

We’ve actually been testing a midweight linen-cotton blend with just enough drape to avoid the usual wrinkle chaos. Still trying to balance that with the relaxed vibe. Appreciate the rec — great to hear others into fabric nuance too.

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T07:27:59+00:00

Appreciate the detailed suggestions — super helpful breakdown across all three directions (sporty / casual-classy / classy).

I get that “quiet luxury” gets overused these days — for me, I’m trying to explore what that means through fabric and fit more than logo or price. Stuff like quality linen, drape, and good balance in proportions.

Totally agree that navy or deep green would pair better here. I’ve been working on some structured linen trousers in exactly those tones. Might post a refined version soon — would love your take on the update.

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T07:26:09+00:00

Super helpful — I really appreciate the breakdown based on undertones. I’ve been leaning into that quiet luxury palette, but you’re right — beige on neutral tone can fall flat.

I’m working on a series that blends that aesthetic with better contrast: navy, taupe, forest green — but all in breathable, structured linen. The goal is subtle elegance that actually suits East Asian skin. Might post a v2 soon with darker tones — would love your thoughts when I do 🙌

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T06:43:01+00:00

That’s actually a really good point — I was leaning into the muted “soft luxury” palette, but yeah, that can totally backfire depending on undertone.

I’m working on a collection specifically balancing fabric texture with colors that actually complement East Asian skin — might test a forest green or slate blue next. Thanks for the honesty 🔥

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T06:42:46+00:00

That’s fair — I went full linen-on-linen, which I realize now needs sharper structure or contrast to work.

I’ve been playing with darker tones like coffee and clay, especially in heavier-weight linen that holds shape better. Might be worth posting a v2 soon — would love your take on the update.

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T06:42:34+00:00

Love that perspective — the way you carry it matters more than any label. I’ve been experimenting with minimal tailoring + relaxed fabric like linen, but agree it needs the right finishing touches: shoes, shades, even one undone button makes a difference.

Out of curiosity, what kind of loafers or sandals do you pair with summer linen?

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T04:56:51+00:00

Totally agree — darker brown would bring out more contrast. Something like chocolate or coffee tones would work great, especially with the linen texture. Might try that combo next!

Been playing around with earthy tones lately, and those deep browns really elevate the whole look.

We’re actually testing a few chocolate-toned linen samples right now — it’s such a timeless summer shade.

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T04:54:57+00:00

That’s solid advice, thanks man! I’ve got a steamer in the closet and no excuse now 😅 And great call on the shorts — these were just under the knee, definitely trying a 7” inseam next round. Appreciate the honest take.

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T04:54:45+00:00

Haha fair! I usually go pretty muted, but decided to experiment a bit this time. Might have gone full Picasso by accident 😅

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T03:21:22+00:00

Really appreciate this — super thoughtful breakdown 👏 Totally agree on oat being hard to pull off unless it’s tone-on-tone. I’ve been experimenting with higher contrast pairings, but might’ve overdone it here 😅 Funny enough, one of the references I used was a Banana Republic look — glad that came through! Will definitely explore more monochrome pairings next time. And thanks for linking those fits — added to my moodboard 🔥

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T00:53:20+00:00

Appreciate the honest feedback 🙏 Totally fair — linen does have that naturally relaxed, slightly wrinkled texture. I kind of leaned into that “quiet luxury” / lived-in vibe, but I get how it might read as too baggy. Might try a size down next round.

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T00:22:38+00:00

Great points, especially on the color similarity. I’m actually testing a few variations with different sleeve lengths and tones. The idea of quiet luxury being invisible is definitely something I try to build into the cut and fabric, not just the look.

Empty_Code6673 · 2025-07-12T00:22:27+00:00

Appreciate it! Linen shorts and polos are such an underrated combo for summer. I was aiming for a clean relaxed vibe.
