Haha bruschetta usually when you give me grief about the jackets you're confirming something I've already thought about. We're closer in ideal aesthetic then you realize. I just don't have money to replace my staple pieces just yet.

I'm actually diggin' them. I have some nice sneakers (Pantafola, Haerfest) but they are both white, and the brightness of the white kind of limits how I feel I can use them. These I think I could wear to a really casual gig with some selvedge jeans and a cotton sport coat. I've always really, really hated the sneakers with a SC look (I know there are plenty that hate the SC with jeans look too), but I might be able to give it a shot with these. Or not. Maybe I'll just wear 'em around with jeans.

I actually really like those, and have since i first saw them on NMWA - I just can't afford them. I highly recommend giving the sneakers with SC look a try - maybe you can pull it off, maybe not. I've done it a few times and have really liked it. Its not a regular thing, but it works for me.

Not to piss you off but those jeans look too wide for you especially wearing a sleeker dress shoe like the strand. Not a huge fan of bright blue but that's me.

Plus it looks like he's in my old house in SC. Did you buy my place?

But yes, the shoes are wrong with the jeans. Either slimmer and darker jeans, or a boot for those.

No worries guys, criticism is certainly welcome. I am still learning and building my wardrobe. I'm here for your expertise, opinions, and ideas after all. Unfortunately I have been blessed with skinny bowed legs and the tighter my jeans get the worse they tend to look. I'll keep this in mind next time I am shopping, though. The colors in the pics aren't very accurate either, the jeans are pretty dark and in person I thought they looked good with the shoes. I do have darker jeans, though, that look awesome with the shoes.
No sir, not your old house. I live in VA.
Most importantly: my wife liked the look

That's what really matters, not impressing a bunch of dudes on a style forum! The pic with flash makes the jeans look lighter blue, and the crossed legs make the jeans seem blousey (dad jeans-ish). It's not as bad in the top pic. But look for a slimmer cut, the Strand is a kinda fancy shoe for a casual look.

[Duvel]

Um, well, women don't necessarily know what looks good on men. My ex-wife thought I looked best in pajama-like linen pants and oversized shirts combined with leather sandals.

Just normal church attire. Nothing special today.

You wear a baseball cap to church?
