I love the classic fits...I mean, the slimmer tailoring today looks great on SOME people and hell, when I stand up, adjust and stand still it may even look good one me! However, when I walk the cuffs get caught up on the shoe and it never looks perfect! Personally? Give me the pleats, the cuffs...give me the full break with the cuff to the sole of the shoe! I also love finding deals...as I could never afford this hobby full retail. about 6 weeks ago I I found 4 suits at goodwill uncut, tags on em. Nothign fancy--department store brands but my bar for suits starts at "all wool" and these fit the bill. At $30 each, I was taking all 4 of em! In looking through the pockets, I found a quality control tag dated 1988...friggin thing's damn near 40 years old and I'm breakin' her in today! It's an Evan-Picone which evidently focused on ladies fashion, but did a little bit of mens too. After maybe $100 in tailoring I love it! The entire fit is thrifted/poshmarked/ebayed! The shirt is bev hill polo club, $3. Shoes are vintage florsheim imperial at maybe $50? I can't remember. $1 goodwill tie completes it. Details: Orient watch which, if you're not familiar with Orient watches, is easily the best deal goin. The thing punches far beyond it's weight class. fragrance is Tom Ford, Ombre Leather. Anson Belt.The Pocket silk was a gift and if you'd like to know more about where that came from, message me as I do not want to drop links here. My entire outfit might be $100...$225 after tailoring.

I went back to the sale where I got the Florsheim Executive Imperial shell Cordovan shoes yesterday. I found another pair. These weren't in as nice condition as the ones yesterday, but they still cleaned up ok and they're totally serviceable. Today everything was 30% off, so I got the for a whopping $2.80 🤣🤣🤣. I also picked up the 4 ties in the photos for $1.40 each. 😁

I found these vintage made in USA Florsheim Executive Imperial shell cordovan shoes that look brand new. They were really dusty, but when I wiped the dust away in one spot I knew they were keepers. I got home now and just polished them. Don't hate me....I paid a whole $4 for them. 🤣

OK, so by introducing yourself you are guaranteed to get to level 2 - it's really that easy and I LOVE learning more about the cool people in this group. Feel free to share where you're from, why you're here, what you do for a living, and what you like about style. Are you a watch guy, suit guy, fragrance guy, or maybe just getting started? Have fun here!

Joeseph Abboud navy blazer with Reda fabric. (It's not hopsack, I think it's birdseye). Beautiful fabric, but they fuse the canvas on this blazer. What a waste! Anyway, I paired it with chinos and a white button down and added a vintage linen pocket square.
