Just wear the hat. Style yourself not to look like a "hipster" (keep classic stuff and not bright colors and distracting whatevers)
Jeans: burgundy is not as versatile as black but the color is pretty trendy. You have big thighs and the cut of the pants make your thighs seem bigger and it looks like chickenleggy. Try other cuts, though that's not terrible
Jeans2: most raw denim have 34" inseams. Also makers will do 30x32 but sometimes you have to special order them through the compant themselves instead of in store.
Overcoats get expensive. Get some better base later or get a sweater or something that you can remove. Scarf is easier to do. You can also try just wearing a coat instead of a jacket and changing in the office
Also list price ranges pls ty

What exactly do you mean by chickenleggy? I've heard it used to describe a much bigger upperbody in proportion to the lowerbody, but the rest of what you said contradicts that. I could try 511s but they are tight on the thighs leaving no room to grow, which is relevant atm since I'm trying to gain weight.

I think he means your thighs are big in proportion to your calves? They seem well proportioned to me, though that is a subjective style question. Any tighter would look poor and I don't see a reason to go looser in the thighs as long as they are comfortable.
Question: I have what I'm pretty sure is an oil tanned lambskin jacket (soft and light, seems to scuff a bit easy, but doesn't absorb water droplet quickly) and am not sure how to care for it.
I think a conditioner like this all I need: http://www.pecard.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=Pecard&Product_Code=PFL4&Category_Code=flotion but am not really sure as nothing I've found online specifically mentions what to use on it.

I see thise here all the time in USA, much moreso than 30/30s, no idea why they are rare there. Also, do they actually size jeans by inches in Germany as well? Or just the USA producers?
Yeah, but the sizes are quite off from time to time. One pair of 30 jeans is a rather snug fit, while I can fit both my fists into another pair of 30s. My 31/32 pants look like clown pants on me.

Can anyone help me out?
I can't find brown herringbone wool/wool blend trousers, 30/30, anywhere.

On the subject of jeans, I fit a 28-30. I'm really thin and like 5-7. So I pretty much fit skinny jeans/slim fit and nothing else. I usually buy lucky jeans because I like the feel (never been a big Levi's fan) and I was wondering if there are any tricks to finding the right size besides hemming. I usually feel like I'm pretty constrained in my choices.

Why is it impossible to get simple, dark blue straight cut jeans in size 30 (Waist) 32 (length) in Germany?
This should be the most-sold configuration in the world...
Just as bad... as soon as you go past a 30 waist (32 or 33 for me depending on brand/style/material) it becomes super hard to find a 30 inseam (and 32 long just looks bad on me - even rolling the bottoms).

yeah big thigh, small calves
its not a big deal because of body types but you could consider a less tapered cut so that your calves aren't as tight (and made to look smaller)
by finding the right size of jeans do you mean waist or inseam?
different companies use different measurements but some companies make smaller (waisted) jeans than others. of course, they're more expensive but if you're already buying lucky brand and dropping $100 you may as well go to N&F or something and add another $50
also it depends on the cut, and a lot of "name brand" companies have poor ones
hemming is the only way to find the right inseam, though. (technically, cuffing)
and again most raw denim have long inseams because STAXXXX and also because they're meant to be tailored by the wearer. aka the solution is the buy better denim
rofl i found a fit that's essentially what i wear daily LOL. qlo/shirt/acne/nike. either he has good taste or i gotta diversify

God jeans are such a pain to buy. Most cuts are just garbage for me. Tried this weekend and now have a pair that fits well around the waist but is kind of tight around the thighs.
Together with my new rider style leather jacket from TheLees I look like straight out of Korea.

bought milsurp combat boots and parka
this should last me through the winter along with my other jackets and shit

They look great, but do you think the brogue is too formal for everyday wear? eg going to work, or the shopping center/city. I'm just trying to figure out if I should add a more workboot looking shoe to my wardrobe.
|
I dropped too much money in winter shit last year....
Peacoat, 2 down jackets, bean boots, and timbsxtweed that i regret
Unfortunately 1 of the down jacket is red and the timbs are completely wasted money bc i dont dress like that anymore

EPT
Goes great with the multiplicity of skinny/slim jeans I wear as well as add a casual touch to a more formal attire.
