>>11347804
yeah I thought so too, gonna go return them for some other coloured chinos. god damn store cheated me with 10 euros too.
>>11347804
quilted jackets only count as trad if you legitimately enjoy vintage hunting attire; most people don't
honestly LL Bean and Abercrombie&Fitch should get more props if people really wanna go that route
ive been looking for these all over the internet/ebay/etsy and i cant seem to find a pair in a size 10.5/11 or any at all.

Not the same tone at all, that one's a yellowish green, the other one's bluish tinted. Maybe just the lighting? Anyway I know how to find cords, was hoping for brand/make
>>11347563
this is good inspo for Reds
>>11347725
is shit, guy looks like a fag
>>11347739
is dope as fuck
>>11347804
doesnt know what theyre talking about
Keep the pants
Nantucket Reds are about as prep as you can get and pretty versatile if you have the wardrobe to back it up.
Kind of like seersucker, everyone has is but its not something you wear all the time.
>>11347880
lol Cole Haan, if you an afford better shoes get better shoes
Is this kinda stuff haram? I am not a fan of logos and flashy stuff but this looks so fucking good and powerful.
>>11348476
Good maybe, but not prep. I mean the guy seems to be wearing a tie bar?!
If you mean the blazer specifically though, sure. Traditional blazers are often badged over the breast, especially sporting-related blazers. A sport or club badge doesn't count as a logo in the least, it's not the same thing.
>>11348569
How do I get a jacket like that? I mean one that is authentic.
I dont row, I am not in some club or anything, I am a tennis-nerd tho. :^)
What about ties with crests on it? They seem to be preppy but I guess you can only wear them if you have a family crest or otherwise it would be fake?
>>11348099
Post some non-Chad inspo then.
>>11347719
that picture was taken in the 1980s, there aren't any low waists
>>11348476
PRL is generally accepted in Ivy/prep no matter what the special snowflakes on this board say. University crest is especially common. This is fine if you're genuinely wealthy.
>>11348569
Not a tie-bar at all, this is an unconventional tie style, but it's known.
>>11348586
>How do I get a jacket like that? I mean one that is authentic.
Join somewhere with the prestige and tradition to have them.
>What about ties with crests on it? They seem to be preppy but I guess you can only wear them if you have a family crest or otherwise it would be fake?
Ties with emblems are usually also club or sport badges, never heard of ones with family arms tabach famigliato.
The only article with coats of arms I would consider legit is a signet ring, and that's not prep because between zero and no Americans have genuine ones. (Even if you had noble heritage, the American creed laid out by the same culture and often same families who later produced prep is to lay aside that type of trappings in favor of an excellence based on merit. Of course later a new hereditary elite developed, but the rejection of Old World nobility remains)
>>11348656
>Not a tie-bar at all, this is an unconventional tie style, but it's known.
Are you seriously arguing that's not a slim white-metal tie bar running across the tie roughly halfway down the gorge of the blazer? It's a single white stripe, set at an angle against the other stripes, and not recurring in the pattern? Seems uh... pretty implausible to me.
>>11348671
I'm on mobile, so I didn't notice the tie-bar going with the slant of the stripes. However, a tie-bar is always set straight, never slanted. An elevated tie is a style reminiscent of an ascot.
The fact that you were unable to realize either possibility is blatantly obvious proof that you've never even encountered both articles in your life. Classic /fa/ trying to one-up someone - but do tell me your alma mater.
>>11348671
>However, a tie-bar is always set straight, never slanted.
What are you talking about? It IS straight. That was my whole point: since it's horizontal, for it to be a stripe it would have had to be a solitary stripe set at an angle *relative to the other stripes*, i.e. an absurd assumption about the design of the tie cloth, ergo it must be a tie bar.
But yeah, keep trying to dig yourself out of this hole by posturing superiority, that's going real well for you so far.
>>11348712
If you believe that's proper (let alone even horizontal), you are utterly clueless.
Your damage control is hilarious. This should be common sense really.
>>11348731
>If you believe that's proper
Yes, that's what "it's not prep, a tie bar is incompatible with prep" sounds like. Well done.
>>11348712
Lol, clearly you didn't understand what they meant. Typically that's achieved without a tie bar, so it's pretty easy for anyone to overlook. The fact you were so offended by a mistake enough to derail the entire thread is kinda pathetic lol.
>>11348731
Although this isn't really prep, I agree. Anyone properly raised should know this to be true. Granted, a pic of a model is always intentionally awkward and unconventional.

>>11347184
are pleats really not prep or is this some sort of meme?
>>11349023
Pleats are fine if you're overwieght.
They give a slimming effect.
When people say pleats aren't effay they are speaking from the perspective that everyone is average sized/thin and wearing flat front is what makes sense.
>>11349230
I'm skinny. Is it possible to pull off? I never thought of them as looking bad but I suppose I just never paid much attention
>>11349299
No.
It's not possible.
It accentuates your skinnyness and makes you look like your pants are far too small.
They're literally made for overweight bankers to wear so their obesity isn't as obvious.

Those trousers look awful on him compared to what he'd be in flat front.

Dunno about those bags. Patagonia is more the present day equivalent for the set who might have carried a bag like that back in the day.
>>11352494
No get a Hudson Sutler bag or a sail canvas bag
>>11352198
Not even him but there's a line between modern prep and trad.
If you want to look like a 40 year old man then go ahead.
how do you prevent blisters when going sockless with penny loafers? are no show socks the only way?
>>11353097
Unless you hate your shoes, you need to wear some sort of socks. Bare feet destroy shoes.
>>11353113
no show socks then?
Cardigans with high button stances are pretty dope, who still makes them these days?

Gonna buy some oxfords in stripe and colors besides white and blue. I was going to get pink, yellow, blue-white candy stripe, and red-white candy stripe. Any others I should get?
>>11353544
you can get a gingham shirt
>>11353550
good idea. I have a couple tattersalls so gingham could be a nice summer coubterpart
>>11352691
>>11352775
I believe T.Anthony is even listed in the preppy handbook.
Your suggested bags dont look good to me. They look like a normal plastic sport bag. Dont you have any suggestions for a normal leather or canvas/leatger duffle for 400bucks?
>>11353901
That Hudson Sutler bag is heavy duty canvas and built like a tank. I own one. It's even lined with gingham cloth
The only other brand I can think of that makes a preppy bag is Captain Santa (whose mascot is second in command to lead the califate)
Or Van, I guess

Thinking about purchasing this poplin blazer for work/casual wear.
is poplin a fabric perfect for summer?

how do i wear penny loafers with shorts without looking too effeminate?
>>11358632
Look masculine and wear penny loafers with shorts.
I'm jacked and have very strong facial features, so anything "effeminate" I do just manages to highlight that.
>>11358632
make sure the tip of your dick pokes out the bottom hem of your shorts. If your dick is too short to do that you're not manly enough
>>11357896
j press my man

actually they are having a june sale. its the poplin one thats going for $360 dollhairs.
http://www.jpressonline.com/poplin-jacket-navy/
dunno where you are at but be wary i think J press fits a lil big. luckily I live 15 min away from the J Press in Gun Wavin New Haven so Ill prob go try it on myself.
>>11357621
yup its navy
>>11359833
>360 dollars
I dont have that type of money
>>11359833
>tfw I live near the J. Press in Cambridge
Feels good nigga. Press is a brand that gets a ton of lip service on here but nobody posts fits of, so I feel like the man walking down the street and shopping there.
The generous fit is great for me because I work out, and their tailor can usually get things to look better on my frame than anything that tries to fit me off the rack would.
Thoughts on these BB chinos?
>>11359853
stupid question but does it cost extra to get it tailored by the dude that works at J. Press? If how is it priced?
>>11359885
This is gonna sound douchey but I don't even know. I just pay the bill they give me. From what I remember of my last purchase, however, it can't be that expensive.
I do know that made to measure there is tres expensive and I've never gone in for it.

Cop the milano fit and stay away from their shit tier Red Fleece line.
>>11360526
I think you've mistaken "prep" for "formal." This reflects on how low-grade your wardrobe must be in comparison to casual prep styles.
>>11358372
jeez
>>11358372
what brands do u cop
>>11360468
They're pretty versatile, just think of them like people here think about regular white sneakers or GATs.
>>11351108
That's the beauty of the Barbour. If I had to choose attending a white tie event in a regular suit or a Barbour and some slacks, I'd take the Barbour.
I recently bought some grey trousers and strangely I'm finding it difficult to fit them into any fits. It feels like I can only wear them with formal-ish black shoes, since my brown boots/dress shoes are all too dark and seem to clash. How can I wear them casually?
>>11360579
Are these that bad? I mean I already have a pair I was just seeing how they fit into the prep style. Thanks for future reference though
>>11361768
The ones you posted or Red Fleece line?
The ones you posted are most likely thier clark fit which is big boy fit, it looks baggy irl.
Red Fleece line you just save a few bucks for a huge downgrade in quality.
Red Fleece is outlet quality sold at retail stores.
>>11362107
I got the Clark fit. They are a little looser, but I don't like my clothes really tight. They don't fit terribly on me though and I'm a skinnier guy
>>11362141
You should give the milano fit a try next time, they are slimmer but not THAT slim.
Goes well while wearing their Regent or Milano fit shirts, unless you also wear Madison fit shirts.
>>11362180
Thanks for the advice man. I'll check those out next time

Don't joke about such things. There are impressionable people in these threads.
>>11356654
I prefer worsted wool blazers in the summer
Is this haram
>>11360984
That's not because it's formal, you dumbass, that's because if you go in a lounge suit everyone'll think you're a tard who doesn't know what dress codes are, but if you go in a Barbour jacket at least they'll know you're flaunting the code on purpose. It's a question of going big, not your retarded ideas about the formal level of a wax jacket.
>>11363633
no, but those dubs are, witness senpai.
>>11363633
Bump for interest. I have white high tops from last summer but idk how to wear them...because of the tight aesthetic around the ankle all my pants look baggy af
>>11359843
Chin up lad, prep doesn't have to be too expensive if you thrift some shit and cop seconds/sale
>>11364117
There's nothing wrong with that but your pants shouldn't fall such that they go past your ankle to rest on the shoe. Cuff accordingly.
What do you guys think of bow ties?
>>11365620
haram
>>11365620
They're ties. If others are wearing a tie, you can wear a bow tie.
>>11365965
STFU MFA
The Oreo styles we discuss rarely include ties at all because they're generally casual, but a messy bow tie and fun socks when everyone else is in a flawless suit is a classic "I don't have to work" move.

You can also try the OG Shuron Ronsirs
>>11367203
Off the rack pants depends heavily on how you're built. Brooks Brothers does it well with a few different fits. J. Press is dank if you want a conspicuously high waist and live near a store. I don't know how many fits RL has, but the ones I had back in high school were sorta low-waisted.
>>11367778
Oh thanks, I got a pair in 52/23 size with that shape (not same brand). I wonder if it's too big? The bigger lenses give me a bit more field of vision but most photos of people wearing these glasses seem to be around the 48-50 lense size. They don't look oversized on me but I'm not sure it I should have gone with the smaller ones.

Thinking about getting a proper raincoat, looking at vintage Van Jacket stuff right now. What do you guys think with regard to raglan sleeve VS in set sleeve? I understand that the proper balmacaan coat has a raglan sleeve but does it matter that much? Furthermore how much wider should the shoulders be compared to a jacket if I want to wear the coat over one? My regular shoulder width for jackets is 38cm~40cm (15 to 16 inches) measured from seam to seam in a straight line; would 42cm for the coat were I to get an inset sleeve one be a bit too big or just right?
