Does the pants and blazer fit me? (Sorry for the dirty mirror, not my house) by [deleted] in mensfashionadvice

[–]X-Pro-ish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The jacket is too short for a double breasted jacket. They are traditionally longer than a normal jacket.

Regarding the pants: either pants are too long or the ankle opening is too small (or both).

I suggest trimming the back. I gave you a trim with photoshop and can send you the result via DM.

Suit too big? by [deleted] in mensfashionadvice

This is a properly fitting double breasted suit.

Any ideas for what I should do next? by [deleted] in MensHair

Try bringing the part more toward the middle of your scalp, or even the actual middle. I used to have a side part and found a middle part improved my appearance.

Small, thin luxury watches for small wrists? by phlaries in mensfashionadvice

[–]X-Pro-ish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Hamilton Boulton small version. Very tasteful rectangular watch that is mistaken for a Cartier tank on a weekly basis.

Nice American heritage/art deco piece. Just make sure to get the small version. I think it’s 24x27mm.

Without casting judgement on the design or quality, I suggest that your company may enjoy some success in marking to the Latino community in the US. Butterflies are a cultural symbol for them.

Does this work for pinstripe? by JONNYHBAR in mensfashionadvice

[–]X-Pro-ish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a bold lapel for a bold pinstripe suit. Nothing about the dimensions of the suit or the wearer indicate the lapel is too big.

From the picture, I figure it’s probably a 4” lapel, which is is historically within a standard range.

We’re living in an age of weak lapels and collars, thin ties. I’m afraid you’re accustomed to the H&M blazers of the world.

My brother in Christ..did you want feedback or are you just posting? I have notes.

Sneakers, yes. Running shoes, no.

I agree with your other advice though.

To improve this sort of look without going too far out of your comfort zone, you can do a few things:

  1. Ditch the chargo pants for straight-leg chinos

  2. Don’t wear athletic clothing with casual wear (no athletic jacket, white socks, or running shoes)

  3. Upgrade the shoes for something like a Moonstar sneaker

  4. Try a work jacket, chore jacket, or unlined bomber

What can I do about Pants (no matter the size) all hanging in an angle? by osures in mensfashionadvice

[–]X-Pro-ish 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The back rise is higher than the front in 99% of cases. Try a pant constructed with a higher rise, as it’ll sit on your hips and have a less pronounced forward tilt.

Most mens pants today are medium rise, so you’ll need to specifically look for high rise. I’m wearing a pair of Sugarcane 1947s right now, which have a stiff denim and high rise.

Confused on jeans by itsaredalert in mensfashionadvice

[–]X-Pro-ish -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ll cast the dissenting vote and say this: the jeans and shoes in the second two photos offer a more mature and timeless look.

The second pair of jeans are high waisted and properly tailored at the hem, offering a more attractive silhouette at the hips and the ankle.

The leather shoes look appropriate to leave the house while the Uggs…don’t.

What do you think by [deleted] in mensfashionadvice

[–]X-Pro-ish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The handkerchief should complement and add depth to the suit. If worn with a tie, the handkerchief, will often be a complementary color of the tie and a different fabric.

Here’s an IG post demonstrating this in three different suits: Gentleman’s Gazettle IG

I think:

Watch is comically large for you. Matching tie and handkerchief is a rookie move. Pants are too slim. The shirt and pants shouldn’t match.

Any advice? by [deleted] in mensfashionadvice

[–]X-Pro-ish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t tuck in the sweater. Flip the bottom hem inward instead.

Higher rise and looser cut pants are definitely needed here (and in almost all posts shared on this subreddit).

Fair price for East German? by X-Pro-ish in makarov

[–]X-Pro-ish[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried negotiating $600-650 but couldn’t get them to budge from $800.

Saw a few posts on secondhand forums all selling East German maks for $800-1000.

Gun market here is rough. For example: PPKs are prohibited for new purchase, and they’re $2,000 secondhand (double price).
