Outstanding ties Jessy. I love the Tie Bar...


Is that navy sold wool or does the picture just look weird?

@Sigtweed Corduroy : You're right, it's wool!

[thmage]

@Jessy, I've wanted that striped knit for a while, do you like it?

$55 Shell Cord AE Leeds:





Original JR Soles still solid, almost zero wear on the heel, heel cup clean. Jackpot!

Yesterday I picked up some of the new Converse leather hi-tops, I guess they are saying that they are boots. They don't have the model that I bought online, but they look great with a pair of jeans. Really happy with them.

I hit the Potomac Mills Banana Republic outlet Friday night; I got a single-breasted slim fit black trench for $63, and 5 pair of socks for $20.


At Goodwill today I got an H&M tweed blazer for $6.99. Lovin' it.

FINALLY some ties. Thank you to all the tie guys on this forum for their wisdom... ties are a nightmare to me but I'm really satisfied with this purchase.

@n0rm that pair of shoes looks amazing


I got a pair of rigid Levi's 505's for $13 at the Valley Fair Levis Store recently. They were on sale for $24.90 and they often have an additional 50% off sale items, so I ended up paying about $13.40 after sales tax. They were just 2 inches longer than my normal size, so they're good to go. There were a few 514's as well, but unfortunately none in my preferred size.

I have one in grey and I've been wanting a Navy coat. This one looked good enough. Thoughts?

@pratyk I prefer a trench, but can't beat that deal!

[JScoope]

I know this isn't really "dapper" and is a little out there for this kind of forum, but I haven't bought anything in sooo long and then these arrived today after months of waiting for their release.

Eeesh. JScoope - more power to you!

[JScoope]

Yeah... I thought I'd get that response LOL.

I can never get enough of Gourmet, and oddly enough as much as I HATE animal print and camo I LOVE them on sneakers.

[julio]

Soooo...what the heck would you wear with that?

[JScoope]

Anything really.

On note though, I own a LOT of sneakers. These aren't an every day shoe or anything.

I'm currently an unemployed student/stay at home dad.

I pretty much wear jeans or chinos and a t-shirt every single day, unless its hot in which case gym shorts. There won't be issues fitting it in to my rotation. I'm just geeked to have something new!
