WAYWRN: Classic Menswear, Casual Style

[Blake Stitched Blues]

@Reevolving Have you considered a waxed Barbour with a zip-in winter lining?

To be honest I avoid waterproof jackets like the plague. No matter how 'breathable' the material purports to be I inevitably sweat to death in them.

Going fishing.

Wouldn't it be cool if every time someone make a recommendation (like a waxed Barbour), a fit pic of it appeared in the next post?

Nice fit @Crat. Did you catch many?

 

[Crat]

Haha, hadn't even seen the Barbour suggestion.

Nice fit @Crat. Did you catch many?

Just the one

****** bathroom selfie, sorry.

 

[OzWino]

Looking good @ammanati. Do you know which denim fabric you used for the shirt? How do you find it?

Looking good @ammanati . Do you know which denim fabric you used for the shirt? How do you find it?

Yes, it was this one: Dark Indigo Denim Chambray. I love it! I don't know why I haven't ordered more.. Highly recommended

 

[OzWino]

Thanks @ammanati I've been thinking about that fabric for a while so its probably time to do the deal. Have you noticed much shrinkage?

 

[ammanati]

Yes, I very often have problems with shrinkage, unlike others, so I am usually very careful. Have the collar size spot on now but after about 2 years the denim one has become a bit small. I'd assume about 2% so that's about 0.75cm on 38 size. Quite significant. @OzWino

 

[OzWino]

Thanks, much obliged @ammanati.

Downtown on a rainy day. (When it rains here, almost everyone goes to ground.)

Old patched and torn L L Bean copy of a Barbour coat, Brooks Brothers Brookstweed jacket, Brooks Brothers flannel Tattersall shirt, Vineyard Vines belt, Orvis heavy twill trousers (with frayed cuffs), and Bean Boots.

Is it the rain or rather that you are on a subway platform in LA?

I kid.
