 I can't picture wearing this shirt without a tie, and that would be my biggest issue.


I tried to think of a way to write this post without being a dick, since you're legitimately trying to be helpful and this forum needs that sort of thing, but

"You'd have to be pretty much marsupialed to wear a tie with that shirt"

Don't currently own any drop crotch pants but I want to get a pair. I think they work well when the drop isn't too large. For that reason, I was considering the following. If anyone has other suggestions on either drop crotch or cropped pants in the $350 and below range, I'm open to those as well.
Do you want sweat pant material or trousers? The stiffness of the sweatpants would prob cause them to drape weirdly. Don't know, I've never owned siki im dropcrotch pants before.

I wanted something lightweight for summer use and was really looking for 'sweat.pant material.'

I don't own a single pair of proper trousers so that'll be a future purchase and likely non-drop crotch.

if you're size 32/48, check yoox in a few days for some miharayasuhiro cotton sweatpants. I got two pairs of miharas last week- a wool pair and a cotton pair, and the cotton ones will be going back. they're made from a t-shirt material, which wasn't what I was looking for but should suit your needs really well. peace

I have some gustavolins pants (check out suspensionpoint.ca) that might fit the bill as well

Upon further review, I think the Ute blazer may be a little too similar to this OL blazer I already have as part of a suit:

Also, someone convince me not to buy this:
