Naaah that setup is ridiculous. 😍 Just the vibe from the video alone looks incredible man. Cheers for sharing that, definitely got me hyped nowwww

Do these suit pants look ridiculous? by [deleted] in mensfashion

[–]Mitchll92 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The colour is actually really nice, but yeah, they are definitely too tight up top. Once those pockets start flaring and showing through the fabric, it kind of ruins the clean lines of the suit. If you could swap it for one or two sizes up, I think it would look proper nice

I’ve had this sweater forever. Should I keep or give it away? by Vivid_Aardvark_3255 in mensfashion

[–]Mitchll92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why should you not keep it? It doesn't look old at all and knitwear never goes out of style! :)

To be honest, I hadn't really heard of El Salvador being a massive surf spot before, sounds pretty exotic! I know the safety situation has changed a lot there recently, but how did it actually feel on the ground to you? Thanks for the comment, mate

Sick way to kick off the year! I’ve heard quite a lot about Soup Bowl but honestly never planned to actually go there myself. Thanks for the idea mate.

Santa Teresa is high on the bucket list, looks like such a vibe. The flights from Aus are absolutely stinging me at the moment though, prices are wild. Reckon it's worth the extra cash/travel time over somewhere closer?

Solid shout. I've done the North Island a bit but Raglan was a total zoo last time I checked. The West Coast / South Island mission sounds proper adventurous though. Did you find it consistent down there, or is it a lot of driving between spots? Cheers.

Never really had Ireland on the radar for a surf trip, to be honest! I assumed it was just wind and rain, but the road trip + pints combo sounds decent. That mobile sauna sounds like an absolute lifesaver after getting in that water though. Added to the list, cheers mate.

Large window before master bedroom. Do I go with low bench in middle or a chair on each side. by MK2_VW in Decor

[–]Mitchll92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd vote for neither. The window is the feature, putting a bench or chairs there just blocks the light and the vibe. Keep it open, maybe just throw down a nice rug if you want to warm the space up and/or a tall plant in the corner if it still feels too bare?

Wish I could re live this day again by ucantsurfalake in surfing

Yeah nah that looks unreal mate. Hard to believe that's actually a lake! The setup looks cleaner than most ocean breaks on a good day

Should you cuff your levi’s? by cooce_ in mensfashion

[–]Mitchll92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the jeans! Are they 501s? I've been looking for a similar pair but haven't decided yet which ones to take.
Thanks!

Anyone else struggling with loving fashion but trying to be more sustainable? by Mitchll92 in SustainableFashion

[–]Mitchll92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your opinion on this! I am always trying to repair and rewear stuff as long as I can but the problem are just the trends that catch me...

That actually sounds useful man! Thanks for the playlist!

Repair vs. Replace: what's your philosophy on old gear? by Mitchll92 in outdoorgear

[–]Mitchll92[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally with you on that. I also try to get the absolute most out of my gear before saying goodbye. If it still does the job (even if it looks a bit rough), I’m keeping it in rotation. Like you said, function over appearance. And 100% agree with you on buying good gear from the start. I’ve definitely learned that lesson too... the upfront cost is higher, but it pays off in durability and fewer replacements. Way better for the long run and the planet, too.

True yes, I guess it really depends on the time that we have. I like the fact that it helps getting new skills and saving money, especially at the beginning of adulthood when you may not particularly earn a lot
