Why do those look odd?

Is the photo stretched?

Because he's a Ken Doll who wears those small pants with huge stitches.

In the off chance that you're selling the harrington because it's too small, I'd trade you my khaki baracuta in 40R.

I'm not sure of the logic in combining dry denim meant to be worn in hard work without washing with wool flannel that destroys itself with extended exposure to sweat.

Is it me or is the Sufu patch bigger?

Have the boots been treated with any kind of leather protector?

Can you do $95 on the boots?

In eighty years some enthusiast is going to dig that jacket out of an old trunk in an attic and it's going to change everything they thought they knew about jeans.

A knife went through an Iron Heart chambray?

Well they just lost my business.

Do you have like a 20 inch waist?

I found a shirt at my local menswear store that is the one on the right in the middle here. It has the tan tag and the mark that looks like the recycling symbol but with yarn.

The fit is perfect if a bit long. Does anyone know when this shirt may have been produced?

Good, now you have an excuse to stop wearing them.

I don't think the boots are bad.

I mean it's cool to hate in timberland boots because most of them are awful looking and poor quality, but it just looks like a standard pair of sand suede Chelsea boots.

I mean, if you take off the tree logo and the black nylon loop I'd wear them.

About the 634SR sizing, I got a pair from rakuten, took a 32, true to size, as didn't want it to be too big.

Truth is the waist is indeed short, but after three hot soaks forcing the waist (quite a bit ), I managed to bring them to the right size.

And overall they are now with the same measurements (thigh, leg opening, rise etc) as the 634S I also own, even a bit bigger maybe.

So would say they are not really undersized, but that there is somehow a problem with the waist size.

Hope will get nice results, not wearing them before autumn or winter however, these things are indeed heavy !

Pics of "waist forcing" :

So at no point in this endeavor did you consider just sizing up and waiting a couple weeks?

I've been looking for a wayfarer style pair of glasses, but ray ban sucks and persol is the shit so I picked these up.

MJK is coming out with some sweet looking ones. His shirts tend to be shorter as they're meant to be worn untucked.

BoO occasionally makes chambrays, though I'm not sure you'll find an 18.5/44 shirt from them.

Why not just buy a regular shirt and take it to the tailors? It shouldn't be that much and would probably be worth it if you really can't find shirts...

Thanks a ton! I've been very interested in Krell's stuff but never found occasion to get something of his.

I avoid tailoring because in my area none of the alteration workers (I refuse to use the word tailor in describing the women at the dry cleaners or the guy who constantly butchers my dad's suits) know what they're doing.

Is there a good brand of chambray for people who are stockier rather than lankier.

I'm 5'8" with 18.5 shoulders and a ~44 chest, but every shirt I've seen that satisfies those qualifications is past my butt and to my thighs.

I can deal with tucking a shirt if the rest of the fit is pitch perfect, but there must be a label with chambrays for the shorter man.

Do you guys just want my paycheck direct deposited into your coffers and you'll mail me those chambrays and flannels?

Those red and black chambrays are gonna steal away my textbook money.

Kiya, why do you hate my education?

Wow! I think $300 flannels are for insane people, but DAMN that's some customer service.

How do these persols look? They're 2880s

They went from 30s to 29s?

Shit about shrinkage

Is anyone else getting pissed that really the best way to find out if a pair of pants will fit is to make them unreturnable?

See the way it bulges on the sides of your thighs?

I'd recommend sizing down or getting a different cut.

Uh yes, here is the ID which is proof of my, uh, being myself.
