Wow this is scary :/
Do you know how this kind of sweat is called? And where can i buy sweat like that? (In Europe if possible) I used to buy on primezzang, but they closed the clothes shop.
Moreover, do you have a good website (not the one in the quote above ^^) where I can buy Asian clothes? Thx ! The pull I want : + Show Spoiler +

get the 38, get it tailored. having them taken in doesn't cost that much, and it'll be well worth it even at the $150 price. but make sure to test the tailor first I wear black more, I'm actually leaning towards navy but I really like the charcoal as well.

I think I'll need to get the jacket taken in a LOT though and I'm not sure how much I would be able to get them taken in. I'm in almost the same spot as you. I was 135 a little over 2 months ago an am now 155 and in the process my chest has grown 1.5 inches. I have no idea if that means that I should expect another 1.5 inches of growth or not since I'm focusing a little more on chest now but also will have to cut at some point. My feelings are mixed on the sizing. On one hand 36r would probably fit me well right now, maybe a little snug on my shoulders but I think that'd be alright. On the otherhand 38r would leave me room to grow, but I'd have to get it brough in at the waist. usually rule of thumb is to buy bigger and get it taken in shoulders cannot be fixed, waist & chest can be modified slightly. most important is the height of armholes and the shoulder width.
that said, if either of you stop working out/bulking for whatever reason in the future, you'll likely return to your original size in time.

I hope you're lanky and skinny or it might not suit the style you're usually dressed for.

Quite a bit of room I would say.. I would probably need to take pictures.. For reference the shoulders look like this in a 36 except more room in the arm and lower body. 38 fits a bit better leaving some room to grow in the shoulders while being to big elsewhere.

How tall are you? I think it would be better to go with a 38 because the 36 wouldn't leave any room to grow especially in the shoulders. I just don't know how the alterations will come out if I tailor a 38 to fit my lower body.

I'm 5'10" but I have no idea how much to expect my shoulders/chest to grow as I gain weight and the internets aren't helping me in those regards. Worst case scenario though I can just get it brought in a little bit when I get to my weight goal.

I'm pretty skinny but only 169cm.. idk not sure if they fit very well anyway because there's a bit of room in the waist as well - can't really tell how much of the folding in the crotch is caused by that and how much by the cut itself
it's really fucking annoying because most 29" waists are too small and most 30" are too big for me - stuck in that spot in the middle where nothing fits properly

everyone from target to h&m to burberry to julius to zegna makes them
Alright, I'll check the local shops, I think I might know a few places where to look. I suppose if it actually does it's purpose (being warm) cosplay one should do, but I'm not sure it does.

I went to a couple of shoe stores near me and I was able to find a pair of Wolverine wingtip Addisons on sale for $260. They look great except while wearing thin, low cut socks, the heal slips a bit even though I sized down one. Not a huge deal but I'm worried if they'll get looser as I break them in. The store doesn't have a smaller size as apparently the line is discontinued. I'm deciding between getting those, Red Wing Beckmans or the normal 1k miles which I don't think look as good as the Addisons and are more expensive.
edit: I ended up pulling the trigger on a pair of brown Addisons for $270 from Amazon. I also tried out Red Wing Beckmans and Iron Rangers at their store. They are much heavier boots that more workman like in design, mostly because of the toe. Wingtip boots seem to get a lot of divided opinions but I thought they look better than the regular 1k miles and 1k miles look better overall than the Red Wings. Also probably going to put half-soles on them.

have longer tops to match the rise of the pants, and/or just wear it like you normally would.

If you don't like it, don't wear them.

Got my unbranded 201 and 301s today. I sized up one for 201 and two for 301, the 301s were too big, the 201s fit nicely. In my case they definitely would not have fit if they were true to size. I can barely button up the top button.

I just got these boots
http://www.sierratradingpost.com/red-wing-heritage-9105-round-toe-boots-factory-2nds-leather-for-men~p~6766r/?colorFamily=01
I'm not a huge fan of the outsole (very chunky) but they are comfortable and good looking so I could get over that. However, they are distinctly red-copper colored (like a penny that isn't quite brand new anymore). I have no idea what I could wear these with...I feel like dark blue jeans (or most jeans really) would be ok or most black pants (but I don't like to wear black pants) work work. The red color doesn't play nice with grey at all and khaki might be a possibility but not as part of a business/business casual/preppy business outfit.
I'm pretty sure I'm going to eat the $7 shipping for a refund but I'm reaching out for any ideas for I drop them in the post.

you could apply some obenauf and see if that darkens the leather.

Any reason you really want korean clothing? Honestly you can find most of those pieces in local retailers without the titanic headache of asian sizing/materials that you can't really test until you actually get the product shipped to you. I guess if you have the proportions of a kpop idol then it could work but iunno.
