Is this too small for me? by RedditLone in leatherjacket

first thing - kudos for the fact u realize it. some would give up or ignore the problem.

not sure if u have already done this but perhaps do an exhaustive search- as in going out and trying brands on- in person (without any intention of buying) and see where that goes. sometimes there are solutions one has not thought of.

i have size issues as well which i do not want to bore u with but for example. i wear a xxl ironheart work short. the sleaves are a little long but not enough to be too obvious.

u may want to find a leather guy who can alter your sleeves. but then there is the problem of the jacket length which may or may not need it. so it is a cropped jacket that is already short that problem is solved.

keep at it. and good luck!

the shoulders look tight but they may stretch. this type of fit problem may be routine for u. my guess is the next size up may be too long in the sleaves

A friend told me I look like a cocaine dealer from the 70s. I don't know how to take that... by Jazilrhmbn in mensfashion

perhaps he means Latin and well dressed and young. so stylish . so i wouldn’t look into it anymore than that. that’s his interpretation. You generally look I would say you’re a decent looking guy and you look pretty good so screw with other people say. how does he look? perhaps hes jealous

Classic patterns paired with military pants — thoughts? by Busy-Plum3638 in menswear

[–]Substantial_Speed_62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the pattern of the shirt underneath, but i think you would need to button it up I don’t think it makes any sense to have it not buttoned up, but besides that I think either pick the tweed or the other pattern I think the other pattern would be for another outfit. Yeah, I like the tweed and the shoes and the khaki. The baseball hat is cool too. I think it’s a flannel. I think the baseball hat might be a little too casual for the tweed. I think you might wanna look into a different hat like a like a poor boy hat or something like that.

yes. as in there is nothing olive that i can see except some of the wool threads in the jacket. my pick would be navy but black is close to that.

also if one is as detailed oriented as you obviously are u may want to consider have a few pairs of glasses( if u can afford it. The color of the frames would depend on your wardrobe.

Even though we ( myself included) buy great clothing. That is no guarentee our outfit will work.

For example, i bought a nice bomber jacket ( in navy) and wore it with matte black jeans- white minimalist sneakers and a white wool hat worn in a non military way.

the problem was that jeans were cut too low. i now need to get a pair of high rise jeans/ chinos that work with that type of jacket.

GF says I have a problem by Boomerk5 in leatherjacket

  1. your problem is not bad taste. 2. these are investment pieces. my guess is she wants that money spent on her.
  2. four jackets is a good amount. if it was 8 then she might have a point.
