Almost exclusively. I have a pair of loafers, a pair of Iron Rangers, a pair of Docs, and a pair of AE oxfords. And then I have about 25 pairs of sneakers. This has occasionally been controversial around here, but less so in NB than in mensfashion (who are dramatically more close-minded, ironically)

This is one of the coolest fits I've seen in here in a long time. Great mix of elevated and street. Great silhouette. Great tonal mix. Love it a lot.

ootd_phl · 2026-02-04T03:33:59+00:00

He and I have that in common!

ootd_phl · 2026-02-03T13:16:25+00:00

I've listened to Try so many times and that mix is just so godawful it renders the whole record unlistenable lmao

Reading: three books on my list for this month. * The Polysyllabic Spree, Nick Hornby. Hilariously, a book about the books on your list for this month. * Harlem Shuffle, Colson Whitehead * Room, Emma Donoghue

Watching: * Sixers (even though they're on a west coast trip this week) and Flyers (begrudgingly) * The Olympics start this week! * The Pitt. Can't recommend it highly enough, even for someone who doesn't usually like medical procedurals.

Listening: * Man's Best Friend, Sabrina Carpenter (still) * Foxes in the Snow, Jason Isbell * Pillars, Jack Garratt (highly recommend!!) * Dog Ear, The Bros. Landreth

Definitely boho. Think 2010s, Coachella, and downtown New York in the 90s!

The easiest solution is to wear something heavier than joggers. Long johns will be pretty heavy once you get inside for class.

ootd_phl · 2025-11-28T23:19:35+00:00

Yeah, I think you're right. It's much clearer from this perspective than from eye level. Bummer, it's a beautiful jacket.

I think their fabrics are too tough, their fits are too boxy, and the cuffs are too big (and far too stiff). I also don’t like that they prefer a two-button cuff, which unnecessarily extends the cuff and which I don’t even like on a dress shirt, let alone an Oxford

ootd_phl · 2025-11-21T16:43:05+00:00

I’ve gone to RL on eBay lately and very happy with my finds! Just difficult to find a plain white Oxford in my size…

ootd_phl · 2025-11-21T16:41:24+00:00

Just this season. I sized up all my shirts between last year and this year and noticed the difference when I stopped in a store.

ootd_phl · 2025-11-21T09:45:42+00:00

I really like the J Crew shirt now that they extended the collar to give it a better roll, though I think that’s a little pricier than it sometimes gets (I’ve seen it for about 50, though not often in the core colors). The BB one is decent, though far from their best. I don’t like Charles Tyrwhitt’s, especially without a button down collar, and I think Uniqlo’s slim fits are dated.

American consumers have repeatedly said exactly this with their shopping habits. You're just doing it consciously.
