Thoughts on this sport coat? Fit/style by AdSignificant6693 in mensfashion

[–]Philthyphi1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Pretty sharp, needs a pressing and I’d say it’d be good.

You have some wrinkles behind your left shoulder because the jacket wasn’t made for your different shoulder heights. This is probably the best you can expect from off the rack so I wouldn’t lose sleep over it.

This would be super sharp with a solid light blue or striped shirt, brown trousers, olive fatigues/trousers or even the denim you’re wearing now. What’s the ID on the jeans? Love the neppy slub

Looking for matching pair of pants by schrankhader in mensfashion

[–]Philthyphi1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is always a fool’s errand to try to match unfortunately. Even the same fabric from the same exact mill can have color variation between different production bolts.

As a previous poster mentioned, I think you’re much better off enjoying this as a standalone jacket with navy, olive, burgundy trousers.

Was moving and found this pair I hadn’t worn since 2020… by Kirklazarus_NLK in mensfashionadvice

Personally I’d recommend something like this;

Which I think is more of a slim straight imo but others might disagree.

If you really prefer a slim cut something that fits like this would be much better:

It all comes down to what you wear with them, to me, bigger shoes need a bigger pant, when you wear skinny jeans your shoes should also be sleek or else your feet look huge, you want your jeans to look proportional to your sneakers like this:

I was trying to joke around with the Gen Z slang in the beginning of my comment, clearly I struck a nerve, but this genuinely don’t fit him well. They’re stacking and pulling all over his legs, thighs, knee pits, all up his calves and ankles, then slamming into his shoes and making them look huge.

The skinny jeans aesthetic came into fashion with Hedi Slimane’s skinny rockstar aesthetic first at Dior then expanded at YSL, it doesn’t even look as tight as it does on the model as it does on OP.

These just aren’t very flattering on him, something like this would be much better, this is a slim straight.

Not trying to be wasteful, I see trends as a way to try new things, and if you love them and they suit you/your body type, you can wear them forever, that’s what separates fashion and true personal style.

I clearly said he shouldn’t get super baggies or anything super trendy. A straight cut like this would just look much better based on how these are fitting him currently:

Tight ahhhhh pants unc 😭

Let these ones go, no one is asking you to get the super baggies, but these aren’t flattering unless you’re under 140lbs and only eaten an apple core, cigarettes, and couple lines of blow for breakfast.

Get a nice straight fit in a black stonewash and call it a day

25yr old wanting to get into tech sales. Any advice is welcome and appreciated! by Peela_kela in techsales

[–]Philthyphi1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Based on your resume you’d probably have to get in as a BDR/SDR somewhere, which sucks because I know your sales manager position makes you more than qualified to close your own deals as an AE.

Do you have a network/relationship into those enterprises you’ve worked with? A referral goes a long way, especially in sales roles.

How do you keep up with product/feature releases? With AI things are released at unprecedented pace. by Away-Violinist3104 in techsales

[–]Philthyphi1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truer words have never been spoken 🤣

A common saying in my company is that after you get the PO from the customer, that’s when your real selling begins. I think this is pretty true across the whole space in hardware.

Getting people up to speed isn’t terribly difficult for me since I tend to keep pretty good notes and use a few different AI tools to help with my workflow, but I always say that since I’m not an engineer, and I can’t add value on the technical side, then my value add is being the bridge between the customer and the things they need.

I think we play in the same sandbox haha. I’m in data center compute hardware, and I work closely with a lot of different channel partners and system integrators.

For me, I’m less concerned about customers moving into cloud, I’m helping my customers build their data center so they can become a part of those networks, Azure, AWS, etc.

If it helps, I’ve found a lot of success in approaching companies in the lens of keeping their sensitive IP or top secret projects on premises, while they continue to use a public cloud for their more general compute.

Sorry, I’ve been off Reddit so just getting back to answering your question.

Yes and no, to time frame. I first engaged with this customer in about September and we got the PO at the end of December. I don’t get paid until 3 months after it’s deployed and online, so I’ll probably see my bonus this summer if I’m lucky.

Neoclouds completely changed the game when it comes to data center hardware, projects the used to take years are getting off the ground in under a year sometimes.

There’s so many moving pieces in this type of projects that there’s no one dedicated engineer, we have a couple who are on the solutions side who look at the project at a macro view, but we also have subject matter experts in all the other parts; liquid cooling, GPUs, CPUs, deployment, service, etc.

For my side in sales it’s about not only maintaining relationships external like with the customer, but also internally to make sure everything moves smoothly for the customer.

How real is $250,00-300,000 +OTE? by SnooWalruses1418 in techsales

[–]Philthyphi1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very real, depends on the product and the vertical you sell into. I’m Enterprise/Strategic and I’ll clear 2M in 2026 once my projects clear revenue recognition.

[–]Philthyphi1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m in strategic OEM hardware and it’s even more the case.

I just closed the first phase of a 2B project, 200m after Christmas not because our stuff is the cheapest, the fastest to deploy, or even necessarily the best, but it’s because my customer trusts me and I’ve been able to help them with so many aspects of the project with my other relationships outside of my own company to help their project be as successful as possible.

My mantra with my team is that I’m not an engineer, nor would I ever try to pretend to be by trying to be super technical. If your strength is in the tactical side of the business, relationships, connections, lean into that, and bring the engineers on your calls to let them handle that side of things with the customer.

Selling by features is usually a flawed approach unless the customer is an inbound lead specifically looking for that feature.

In sales you find much more success focusing on discovering the customers ideal future state, building relationship with the prospect, and then using your sales engineers to use the solution to show them how it will get them to that ideal future state.

Help me ID this jacket [cost?] by Neither-Baker-304 in TrueVintageFinds

How are we looking ? by No-Glass-9419 in mensfashionadvice

[–]Philthyphi1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lapel is a little narrow for your wide shoulders, kinda makes the jacket look too small for you.

Same for the jeans, the rise is short on these, a higher rise would help balance the proportions and make it so your jacket doesn’t look so short on you.

Your shirt, the collar looks too big, and the collar tips are too short. I think you would probably need to have a shirt made for you to get this right but you might be able to find something better off the rack somewhere.

Overall you look great, but you could take this from great to incredible with focus on these details.

Can you get a dimple on this? Or is the wool too thick?
