After work casual.

Shmoo that first fit is 10/10.

Mr Venneri grey t spoils the whole fit for me. I think it would also be better with a cosy cream sweater or roll neck untucked and boots

 

[Dusty Heaters]

100% agree. Hate the tee.

Change up the shirt for a basic t-shirt, turtleneck, sweater, anything really, and good to go. Boots jeans and trucker jacket are saying rough casual weekend. Shirt and ew undershirt are saying office.

I don wanna see your undershirt even in business wear
Jeans are casual, button up shirts like that with a solid light color are formal, so please don't tuck into jeans, just doesn't really make sense.
Maybe if you had a sleek boot/dress shoe, and put a cardigan or sweater over the shirt, then it would make sense to tuck in (without the jacket) as afterwork casual.

Those shoes or boots are too dressy for the jacket.

I am probably in the minority, but I don't mind tees underneath button up shirts. But usually white looks best, not a dark tee. to me it's an American look but I guess not always.








With that MrVenneri fit, I think the tucked-in, smart-casual look is better with shorter jeans. If you do the small turn-up (which I really like) it looks good a little shorter so you show off the boot and create a cleaner line. More mod/skin. Longish jeans with cuffs always seem sad to me.

I appreciate the insight and agree on most of your suggestions. A sweater would have been better! In fact, full disclosure...Here's how this fit came to be. I get home from my office, change into that grey tee and sweatpants (it's winter). Wife comes home, wants me to run a few errands. I throw on the shirt I wore to the office since it was still hanging up and that pair of brown weft 18oz 3sixteen denim. I never wear undershirts...ever...but I was cold and running to Lowes. On the way out the door she tells me to stop, pose, takes the picture, and I'm gone.

However, I refuse to leave a collared shirt untucked. For me, I consider that look sloppy and juvenile...to each their own.

Those shoes or boots are too dressy for the jacket.

They're 64 lasted, shearling lined, ridgeway soled, Galways in country-calf...I don't get any more casual.

I can understand your perspective on the shorter hem...but for me, if they're going to be cropped higher they need a taper from the knee down. Otherwise they look like bell-bottoms flipping in the wind. I don't necessarily cuff my denim for style...I do so to avoid the indigo transfer on my suede boots/shoes.
