WAYWT? [Denim Version] 2015

[Kushy]

From the pic it looks kinda like you tucked your tie into your pants or belt. 

[Blue Nemo]

Hehe. It slightly touches the belt. At least when I don't stand straight. When I do it ends a cm over the belt.

Still experimenting with the right length, and although the knot is cake, the right length is not...

Prepare for lots of ugly ties then... This denim tie was a gift, and probably the only one I like to wear.

Well, thanks!!

[Geeman]

A gentleman's tie should end exactly at the middle of his belt

[Blue Nemo]

Yeah, but that is really hard to achieve :-D I should straighten my back more. But jeez, it looks stupid when the tie is too long

[unders]

Whilst longer ties may look a bit daft, they do make handy cock warmers come wintertime.

[Blue Nemo]

If worn naked!!

[Kushy]

I always heard the term "kissing the belt" as to where a tie should fall.  Nemo has is right but I wonder it that is only for a pointed tie and not a knitted tie with a square end.  I'm sure there are names for these distinctions but I don't know them.

Nice look until you get to the shoes Tie with denim can work (as it does in your outfit) but needs either boots or sneakers instead of trainers. Like a simple, white leather sneaker. With those NBs the outfit is a bit like a mullet Business up top and "going for a run in the woods" down below. No offense und just my opinion of course

[Sugar Mountain]

^ Yeah, I think a pair of Trickers or Alfred Sargent would really complete that outfit more than the NBs.

How do you like those txture boots? They look great in pics. 

[Blue Nemo]

I agree. But with my hobbits feet and orthopedic insoles this might not happen. It's a compromise I have to live with, not liberately.

[Frost]

^Tricker's have enough space/volume that you can fit an additional insole in without a problem. Might even make for a better fit depending on your preferences.

[Blue Nemo]

That might be true, but I do not like Trickers, not one bit.

But thanks for trying to help!

no way! I find new balance to be some if the most uncomfortable shoes ever. Ever tried any kind of boots? Red Wing are million times more comfortable, as are Tricker's.

[Blue Nemo]

I had two red wings myself, tried wolverines, whites, wesco and viberg. Not all models obviously. Tried Alden Indy boots etc. I know what you're talking about Volvo, but it's not always as easy as you like ,-)

Nothing works, even if the insoles fit I still have issues.

Ironically, the worse the shoe , for example NB, the better it is

[Cucoo]

I agree. But with my hobbits feet and orthopedic insoles this might not happen. It's a compromise I have to live with, not liberately.

 

Yeah, that's no fun. I don't have real orthopedic problems but my feet grow broader as I get older, I'm now a EU43 instead of a 42 plus a lot of shoes are still just too narrow for me. It's too bad that shoes are not really available in different widths in Germany. (My problem isn't length, but narrow toe boxes.) For example all Red Wing shops only carry standard D width as far as I'm aware.

[Blue Nemo]

Yeah, but Kai Knipschild is an awesome guy, really dedicated to his stuff. If you ask him he might fix that problem for you!

[Cucoo]

Thanks for the tip, but Red Wing was just an example - I'm all set wrt boots right now

[Blue Nemo]

Good for you! Ha
