  1. I agree, the first one has some nice details, like the placket and short cuffs (I think) as well as the color, but you're right, the second will probably go better with dark jeans. Both nice, though. The fit looks great for J. Crew, which I always thought made only big billowy shirts.

  2. Apparently it's also ok to display your jeans with a cat lying on them. Just joking! Same as I was when I said this:

    Do you have a stub leg, with the fabric pinned up? If so, you should wear a peg. Much cooler.

    No hard feelings, guys? Sorry I started a fight.

    Also, not sure why you neg repped me, kixslf, or even took offense in the first place.

  3. I got these the other day at goodwill for $5. They're Cole Haan, 'bench made in England'. I think of Cole Haan as being pretty low-end for the most part, but for five bucks I had to get them. They're certainly a step up from my other non-sneaker shoes... Dockers. haha. At least these have a leather outsole. What I dislike about them, though, is a line of stitching on the quarter next to the eyelets that I think looks cheap. Also, the leather is very soft. Not sure if that's bad or good.

    Anyway, I just figured someone who has knowledge of shoes might be able to tell me if these are decent or just junk, which I'm totally fine with.

  4. I think you should wash them if they smell bad. Jeans such as nudies are kind of a waste of time in my opinion, and I think most other people's here as well. While they can get contrasted fades, they don't hold dye very well, meaning you have to wait at least 6 months (or 10.5 in your case) to wash them. It seems like all that time preparing for the wash isn't enjoyable for the wearer but rather made merely tolerable in order for some huge payoff in the end, which is invariably less splendorous than the end result, as well as the whole process, of better quality denims.

    yay?

    nay?
