Top ensemble is quite nice. I think the bow tie clashes with the shirt a bit in the bottom.

Not sure it clashes per se, but the dark navy sweater, dark purple in the shirt's plaid, and the lighter blue-navy of the tie is a lot going on in a very similar range of hue and saturation. That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if it works better in person when you aren't zoomed in in HD and seeing less of the suit that would tone it down for the look of the full fit.
Mostly posting because I wear this LE peacoat nearly every day to work but never post pics of it. This has superseded a thinner BR topcoat as my go-to dress coat since this is a bit thicker and warmer. It's not my ideal peacoat by any stretch... the collar isn't beefy enough to stand on its own, it holds onto wrinkles in the back... but I got it on sale for like $100 and it's just very wearable.
My style leans cleaned up rugged. Atypical layering up top, a blue chambray button down under a brown cotton henley with some marled texture to it, olive"ish" Lands End ring spun colored denim, AE Daltons in bourbon, with Red Wing Waterbury watch. Not a look preferred by everyone, but I like the combo.

I like it! My Dalton's are exclusively worn with denim.

I have it and use it quite often, does a damn good job of keeping the shirt tucked in no matter what you're doing. I don't like the ones that go down to your feet/socks cuz it feels weird when you're sitting. The thigh ones are perfect and you forget that they're on after a while.

I've been looking for a pair of grey herringbone trousers for a while now, and those suit pants look great. I've had mixed experience with JackThreads quality (a sportcoat that was pretty good, two sweaters that felt really flimsy and cheap). What's the quality on that suit like?
