    Suitsupply NYC

    Thanks! I guess I'll go for a long then because at least in product pics the button stance of many Suitsupply models looks a bit high. Which is unfortunately standard for most sportcoats and suit jackets nowadays. I do have long arms and back but it's often been a case by case situation whether...

    Does anyone know why the long version of a jacket is a bit narrower at the chest and upper waist according to Suitsupply's size guide? Also do you know if the long version is just longer or does it also have a lower button stance?

    How do these look?

    They look alright. Tucked always looks better, even with casual styles.

    Sleeve length of the jacket or shirt the issue?

    Yup, too long sleeves.

    Are my pants tapered too much?

    Yes, they are.

    What to wear with red shoes?

    Bright red is a very rare colour in men's shoes. I have a pair and usually wear them with a more casual outfit like black jeans and a sportcoat.

    TOJ - updates on the debacle, complaints, news about other ventures, whatever.

    If the jacket fits, I'd just keep it and avoid the hassle. I know it's not what you ordered but it's still a very similar jacket and in my experience the slanted pockets are a lot more useful. I have a DR and a QDR so I can compare.

    Vest + Tie + Jeans? Yay or nay?

    Yes, a more casual waistcoat fabric would be best, something with a texture. Always wear a tie with a vest, it looks so much better. Don't worry too much about the tie fabric, just use one that complements or contrasts your other clothes. If you have a patterned shirt, use a plain tie to avoid...

     Or more likely in 99% of all cases they won't notice or care. They appreciate that you came in well dressed but otherwise most people know jack **** about menswear. Even the ones that do won't care about a ticket pocket.

    How comfortable are your dress shoes?

    Get ones that fit well or slightly bigger that fit well with padded insoles. Some models might require some breaking in before they're truly comfortable.

    Hands in jacket side pockets

    If they were not meant to be used why have pockets at all. Keep your hands in them or store something.

    Co-ordinating a waistcoat (without jacket)

    As long as you don't wear one that looks like it belongs to a suit or is "waiterish" or like you came from a wedding, you'll be fine. For example I think some rougher fabrics in contrasting colors look fine with dark jeans and some pattern or texture is usually better than plain.

     Or if you can afford it, do like I did and order two sizes, send the wrong one back.

     Depends on the model. They can have different measurements. For example the burgundy coat has wide shoulders and short sleeves but my camel coat has narrower shoulders and longer sleeves. I had to size up to fit a jacket underneath.

    pretty awesome find at neiman marcus outlet Kiton Vicuna

    So a downright dull looking jacket at a ridiculous price? Let me get my wallet.

    Got my camel coat today. Bought sizes 50 and 52 with the intent of sending one back. I'm 184cm/80 kg semi-athletic build. Both sizes fit fine when wearing just a shirt but if you put a jacket underneath the 50 was too snug, mainly in the arms and chest. There was some pulling on the top button...

    Leather Strap Watches

    Don't worry about the strap. Get a watch you like and swap the strap for a leather one. On most models it's easy to do yourself as long as you have a tiny flathead screwdriver. I've had good luck with straps bought from eBay too.

    Stylish but comfortable? Possible

    I'd say a lot of it is getting used to traditional dress shoes that are nowhere near as cushioned as sneakers or more casual shoes. Nowadays I can easily be wearing my shoes 8+ hours a day without discomfort. Not to mention it takes a few days for new shoes to break in during which they can be...

     Thanks for the info. I was looking into that coat as well but for some reason the measurements are kinda strange with what looks like fairly wide shoulders, long overall length but really short sleeves on all sizes.

    Dressing well for youngins

    I think something like brogue oxfords or derbys in casual colors (brown, tan or more unusual colors like red or lighter blue) would be perfectly fine. As long as the shape of the last is stylish and the overall look is casual. Outside of prom or job interviews ties and even more so bowties...
