Cords are a fall/winter staple, and that's a great price for the Bonobos ones. They can be worn the same as any grey jeans or chinos. For inspiration I'd suggest doing a search, as Joe (from the main page) loves grey jeans (his favorite are BR), and he is often suggesting outfits that involve them.

Jamie, thanks for the suggestion. I've definitely seen some of those posts before and for some reason, didn't even think about going back to them. Appreciate it!

Didn't get to snap a pic but I grabbed a pair of caramel colored Bass boat shoes from the outlet for $22 and some change this weekend. I have to stretch out the toe area a little but other than that, I am happy with them. Here is the only pic I could find on google...

Picked up the 1901 Lynden suede dub monks in sand at the Rack this weekend. Wore em to work today and love em. My only pair of monks, but I think these will get a lot of play well into fall. A higher end purchase may be in the works once these are used up.

That cardigan is really cool, do you plan on wearing it casually or in more dressed up situations?

I've been really heavily considering a pair of these as an alternative to suede bucks, how true to size do they run?

I'll probably wear it casually most often. I think it could be dressed up as well though. Been eyeing it for a while, really like the inconsistent stripe pattern

True to size for me. Got them in a 10, which is what I wear in the AE 5 last, and most other shoes. I usually size down to a 9.5 in loafers.

Just got this suit made in the navy check fabric. It's much more subtle in person - Will post pics when I get it hopefully, 4 -6 weeks. 3/2 notch lapel, horn buttons fully canvassed - 1 inward pleat and 2 inch cuffs! Really pumped.

Whoa, nice. I want a guncheck fabric blazer, never thought of doing a navy check suit but I bet it'll look great. Who's making the suit for you?

A guy named Andrew Lock. http://andrewlockshoes.com. He's awesome - great attention to detail, really cares about getting it right. His website isn't much - but he's more of an in person guy. I think he does NY and LA.

Did you happen get a chance to check out his shoes? The pictures on his website aren't great.

I see them every time I'm in the shop. They're really nice, nicer then my AE's, really substantial feeling. Here's a write up from putthison.

Dang, I really want to see the result of this. Mind quoting a ballpark range for this?

I had an extra pair of pants made, and went with some more expensive details like the buttons, and the half butterfly lining, and it was only 800
