Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

[NaTionS]

Not sure if they're still making it but I used to have a nice waxed cotton one from Uniqlo. Would take it with me as a beater on trips and stuff until I finally lost it somewhere in China.

Yes / No on this jacket from COS? How to wear a casual blazer that doesn't have any visual interest by itself without looking like it's an orphaned suit jacket or GQ victim? I like the color and cut of this COS but not sure if I want to get matching pants. @Bam!ChairDance?

I wish 'qlo still made something like that. Will probably hold off and see if they release any parkas with the +j collection and if not maybe get a fjalraven or something. i should just man up and get a ss eg parka. doesn't have to be an m65, but really need some type of ss parka as a layering piece for rain an stuff. there used to be a bunch of attachment m65s on rakuten but they appear to all be gone...

There was (maybe still is) an Ervell parka in eBay in small for like $150.

Small would probably be too big for mikey; I have small that fits (pretty slim) and I'm a 48

 

[OccultaVexillum]

Oh ok I was thinking he was a small. Turns out the parka is gone now anyway, there is an Ervell field coat though (small).

Considering that I already own 4 navy suits and 3 brown suits, which should I add? This is already paid for, I just need to decide on color.

Should I buy these Buttero boots:

Or choose one of these Red Wing Blacksmiths:


Judging style, quality, durability and brand recognition. Mostly to complement my raw denim.

Buttero imo

No charcoal?

Lol at comparing buttero to red wing. Totally different styles.

I know this is a bit boring, but anyone have an opinion on these scarves? The first is made from a linen/ bamboo mix. It has a very textured, dry hand, and TBH, I'm not totally sure I can pull off a linen scarf.

The second made from baby alpaca and feels a bit more wearable. The weave kind of reminds me of Schneider's scarves, but the size of the scarf is less big (something like 20" by 70", instead of the shawl-like size of some of Schneiders).

The blue linen scarf looks like it'll go with the casual workwearish stuff I think u wear. 2nd scarf looks more suited for tailored clothing imo. I prefer the 2nd one as the 1st one reminds me a bit of a hand towel or table linen for some reason.

brand recognition.

really?

btw- I think the buttero are more versatile
