Today was the first true autumn day here, and as such it's wool tie and sweater weather.

Layers when it's going to warm up later:

I really like that field jacket. Details?

Thanks! It's a mountain parka made by Engineering Garments.

Looking good! Yes, I've got a pair in the same colour but they're fatigue pants so better suited to the less tailored outfits. I've also got a pair of chinos in a lighter green which will see some more use in the warmer weather.

Thanks. I do have a couple of otherpants in different shades of green... Is a color I use a lot in the fall and in the spring.

The string loafer game around here is strong.

Thanks AAS.

Skrong, even...

I am afraid I don't know what Skrong mean...

Like strong, but more so.

I see, thanks! It is used to emphasise then, right?

Not great photos. Yes, that's a purple tweed jacket.

Quote: Yeah, I went to check on them after posting, and it appears they are sold out. I'd expect a restock soon.

Quote: Exactly. One might also consider it non-standard English, or colloquial English.

VERY colloquial. So much so that if you use it, most people will have no idea what you're talking about.

Nice!
No on can compete with your photos You even pick matching backgrouds, not fair hahaha... kidding aside, very nice looking chukkas.

I have come to notice that a lot of you guys in SF wear chukka boots even in warm weather... I can't stand wearing something so "closed up" and high up the ankles. Don't your feet get really warm?

Thanks! They're actually taller than chukkas

It's one of those days where it's cold in the morning and then heats up later in the day so I'm not sure how well they'll work. I probably wouldn't wear these on days that are too warm but they're fine for now.



These are the boots: http://www.nomanwalksalone.com/index.php/sale-section/snuff-suede-cambridge-boot.html

@Gerry Nelson Looking great as always. Would love to know more about the jacket and scarf. Jacket looks too saturated and sharp for French workwear. But strikes just the right note.

Thank you! The jacket is actually French workwear

It's made by Vetra. It looked even more saturated in the photo I took and I had to reduce the luminance to get it close to real life.

The scarf is really cool - it's a cotton patchwork indigo scarf similar to this one: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/fukuraku/item/13etc-54-037z/?s-id=borderless_recommend_item_en

All the scarves are difference because they're made from different patches of fabric.
