LE sweatshirt

Really like that sweatshirt. Great texture and detail around the collar. I couldn't find it on their website though. I'm guessing this is older? Or do you possibly have a link?

It's from last year.

[MENTION=14560]KantStopDario[/MENTION] since you're posting here, I'll assume you're looking for feedback. I would personally say that the sweater you're wearing is too tight on you. You need to wear clothing that is flattering to your build. I also don't know how well the t-shirt and the monk straps mesh with the outfit as a whole. Regardless, it takes courage to post your look for the first time. I definitely encourage you to continue. Just keep congruity and fit in mind.

Denim and Daltons. Thought the boots looked great in this coffeehouse lighting though the picture didn't pick it up too well.

Huge fan of the Daltons and dress boots in general. How do you polish or maintain yours? I like the color integrity you have there

These boots are from Nov. 2014 and I have worn them almost once a week since then. For conditioner, I use Lexol where I spray it on a microfiber cloth and wipe the boot without laces. I have done this maybe 3 times total since new. I have some AE Walnut cream polish but have only used it once. I prefer neutral cream all over or a very light brushing of some darker brown cream on the toe area to keep the burnished look. I then used a very light coating of wax polish, Kiwi or Carmina neutral, depending on the effect I want. Kiwi seems to shine better than Carmina. Also Carmina has a peppery smell which can overwhelm my office. It is odd.

Other than that, I give them a wipe with a mircofiber cloth (used instead of a nylon) and a brush here and there. I polish maybe every 2-3 months every so slightly. Also after a fresh polish they sometimes make that squeaky leather sound around the tongue so I dust it with a little baby power which makes it go away.

I really like your tie/ps combo. Also a great example of how to make "northern lights" work really well. Which loafers are those?

I'm out of touch with the Northern Lights references. Is this just referring to dark pants and light colored jackets?

Yeah, just some BS oldworld "rule" about menswear.

Thanks! They're Jack Erwin's "Charlie" loafer in Burgundy. Blake-stitch made them easy to break in and they're just chunky enough to wear casually while still remaining low-profile for a semi-dressed up look.
