@fairlynerdy
, a general observation.  You have a very consistent vibe with the jeans with cuffs and either a sport coat, sweater or more recently the chore coat  The polished calfskin boots/shoes you pair with these fits are perfectly acceptable, but I get the sense that you might really elevate your look with a more casual alternative, such as a suede chukka (e.g. Alden), grain leather boots (C&J Isley or Carmina/Carlos Santos make nice versions), suede boots, or a leather/suede sneaker (e.g. Buttero's).  In other words, I think you could use more suede in your life.  Just something I've been meaning to suggest for a while. 

Took forever for me to respond, the holiday and chasing little ones left little time for SF recently. Thanks for the thoughts, it's appreciated. I do think a number of my fits would be better with more casual footwear. I originally got into SF through shoes, mostly more formal ones at first. As I've changed my look a bit and added more work wear pieces, I give myself a passing grade mixing and matching different pieces together. Cuffed jeans really don't mix well with anything but casual boots or sneakers. But sometimes you just wanna wear your Galways.
