that long cardigan & alpaca blend sweater are steals though at 499 & 250 new tees are at a pretty decent price as well considering his stuff goes for ~100 on greymarket disappointingly, none of his signature double layer stuff. | ||

Will see how it turns out after a few wears. Can't find exact one on the site.

I've seen several pod shorts on aftermarket/greymarket on sale, nobody seems to want them | ||

And do you know of any stores that supply them? Obviously they're everywhere online but I'd like to try a pair and there's a pretty big mall by me... | ||

I live in the world of small medium large (medium my size), so I am not really aware of my specific dimensions. I also have no clue which brands are good or bad, and where to buy them. Dress shirts come in a variety of fits.... First of all you should be buying dress shirts in "numbers" rather than S M L with a few exceptions. The number corresponds to the circumference of your neck in inches. Try measuring it with some take home IKEA tape if you don't have any. For starters, think about a couple things: -You should be able to put 1 finger in your collar fairly comfortably or it's too tight around the neck. -Grab a pair of pants you'd wear with them when you try a shit on. Tuck the shirt in to see how they look, you don't want too much fabric floating around -Make sure you can lift your arm almost all the way up comfortably -Look in the mirror to see the fit, you probably want it to taper slightly from the chest to the waist. If you are looking for casual button downs they will come in S M L XL Brooks Brothers sells their black fleece line in bb1 bb2 bb3 bb4 bb5 bb1. I consider bb1 a small and bb2 a medium, bb3.... etc. Always start with a department store for dress shirts. Not super high quality but not bad, usually they have sales. I don't think there are bad brands, just value for the brand you get. In Canada I can get okay shirts for $30 but I get mine made to measure in Asian for $50CAD a piece. hope that helps, it'll take a while to figure out brands that work for you. | ||

for example i take a 9.5 but i'm a 9 in Vans and some of my boots by the way i'm a liar. they don't fit tts, try sizing 1 down. apparently my pair are 8.5 and they fit pretty perfect - also for the shirts, id write something but you can just read this http://putthison.com/post/20470105056/the-custom-shirts-series-part-ii-how-should-a pto has a lot of good stuff even though its pretty #dadcore like andy likes to say | ||

Also sleeve length is an issue for skinny people like me who have to buy smaller sizes for chest, but the collateral effect is your sleeves are far too short. | ||
