Knit blazers y/n? Seems like a nice way not to look out of place being too dressed up wearing a real sports coat

Who makes roomy chinos like this with a high rise in 2026? Do the classic fit pants from J. Press fit like pic related? I tried O'Connell's chinos but they were a bit too slim

>Pini Parma and Berg & Berg make good pants but they are more dressy
>LL Bean has chinos similar to this but only in light beige
>Ralph Lauren sells multiple models that are near identical but overpriced or tapered
>Marco O' Polo sells linen pants similar to this but they are see-through
>Strokeman's sells a linen cotton blend, but again, more tapered
>NN.07 and BOSS sell chinos that are very close, but they are all synthetic blend AND overpriced
It's over

All of their "100%" wool or cotton stuff still has polyesther lining and pockets and stuff.
I write a harassment email/linkedin message every 4 months to a few employees at random about this.
You guys should help me write more harassment emails about plastic in clothing.

Timecatcher (something like Bronson, can buy both brands on Olderbest) has a new model. 34cm front rise. Ignore the huge belt in the pic

Yeah you're right, I've already been through the "bro the legs are short but they have 5cm surplus" and then you have an ugly white line where the hem was undone.
That being said some of their models are longer now. 1955 Classic Selvedge Biker Jeans have 84cm inseam for example.

their miusa line is short too, at least mine are and they're ~10 years old and still look great. I want a few more untuckable shirts so I'm also looking for options. It seems like most high $ ones need to be tucked in unless you get them hemmed, but I don't have any real reference pics.

I don't care. Quit being a dweeb.

There are other options among blazers you can wear to dress down to avoid looking like a clown in something like this. I may be too European but to me it seems impossible to be overdressed with a blazer. If you want to dress it down you can leave out the tie.

Unfortunately yes. I pity the people who have been wearing these for years because they liked the way they looked in Goodfellas and now have to see every spic and nigger copy their look from Zara. It used to be cool, now it screams H&M TikTok "Old Money Core".

Are there any suede bucks under $500? I used to have a pair of the kenton bucks from J Crew but they don't make them anymore. Also open to any recommendations of shoes that would fill a similar role. Allen Edmonds has a suede wingtip that looks beautiful but my Park Aves are not my favorite fit and its the same last. J Press has some for $585 and Grant Stone doesn't have a tan.

I was lookin at the Asphalte tough trouser and their composition section mentions 100% cotton but description says "touch of elastane". I was wondering how come they write 100% then, turns out elastane is < 1%.
> Thank you for reaching out to us, and you are correct, the elasthane part is less than 1% which is why we indicate 100% cotton. The Elasthane part is strictly the minimum to ensure that the trousers don't feel rough.
Why man, who cares if it feels rough

I have a reminder for every 3 months to write a dozen emails about this issue. I also vary my email adresses. Am not through my own emails adresses yet but I will probably create throwaway accounts about it too.
Never stop the harassment.

I bought a chambray shirt and a cotton knit sweater on sale from jpress. Overall quality was ok if they're on sale imo. I wouldn't pay full price. This is the best pic I have of them without having to get up.
The shirt is mediocre honestly. A noticeable step down in construction and overall feel vs other more premium options. This is not their made in USA line, so I can't compare.
The knit sweater is made in USA and has a good feel and construction to it, but sleeve sizing makes me feel like a wizard wearing it. I buy L sizes to fit my shoulders.

I was thinking of getting my first pair of flannel trousers. I wanted these mid-gray ones (middle ones) but they're sold out in my size. Thoughts on either of the other ones? (light grey or light brown).
I'm thinking the light grey is too light and would have too much contrast for a lot of winter things. I have a fuckload of light khaki/stone/beige/sand/etc pants so the light brown could either fit right in to existing outfits or would just be worth it. I have some light grey chinos and never seem to use them since they're so light.
It's 8% cashmere / 92% wool and 350g so I'm not sure if the durability would be an issue.
