Are Kamakura shirts a thing?? There's a store next to my apartment but it's mostly old people shopping there. Looked like Brooks Bros with a wider selection of ugly patterns

Good for work basics. Wanted to maybe grab a linen shirt or two for summer too.

My opinion is quickly changing on these, almost buy at retail change........almost

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

these are Fujiwara? where did you find these?

 

[LelandJ]

They're MMM of course!

Would look great with your all cream fits, Reg. More street more colorful than your natural boots.

The navy ones are the pair I am rally mulling over

Don't tell me you're afraid to wear oxblood, c'mon now!

 

[RegisDB9]

I'd love to get my hands on an oxblood turtle neck, but footwear is tricky for me. I can't find any fits with these anywhere online other than Mr. Porter where they look kind of bulky. SSENSE pics make them look a lot sleeker. These days I'd rather buy something I don't have to think about were it fits in my wardrobe. The oxblood looks very nice, I just don't see myself wearing it successfully. The navy ones can just replace my boots when I want a fit to look less serious which I like. The tan version do not have the cream in between the sole and upper

OK lol .. right what was I thinking they're MMM, but that brown strip around the sole… Fujiwara has been doing that for a while now.

I checked out the other pics on ssense, the navy and oxblood look like shiny fake vinyl leather on closer inspection. Honestly thought the same of your boots with the same navy "galaxy" shine to them. I recommend avoiding.

The leather on my boots is pretty great in my opinion (compared to the dozens I have or had). If those come close to the boots then I'd definitely keep them

What length do you guys prefer on your more 'formal' slim trousers?

I used to prefer no-break because it looked cleaner and sharper but recently I've been moving towards a ~halfish break (no cuff) because there's something sensuous about the way the fabric folds at the bottom.

For me, it actually depends on the shoes I'm wearing (I own trousers in different lengths)
- If l wear formal "low" shoes (derbies, brogues, etc...) l wear my longer trousers with a break , but l can't really wear them with boots, because there's too much stacking -
- So i wear shorter trousers with boots only (on a more 'casual' look, in summertime for instance)

oooh snap, I realized last night the main character on Sillicon Valley basically dresses like me. OBCDs and grey hoodies forever (for ever ever). At least he doesn't rock CPs (I think)

So it looks like Uniqlo won't be buying Jcrew after all

So it looks like Fast Retailing won't be buying Jcrew after all

FTFY

Uniqlo is a subsidiary of FR. FR, not uniqlo, would've been buying Jcrew,
