I don't like these shirts

>>15405146
yeah these logos don’t look subtle at all, they’re just thrown in your face

Guy at the end of last thread, I’m kind of just exploring with things at the moment and not spending a lot just yet, I need some linen shirts, which are my best options out of the few below for the price?


https://www.arket.com/en_gbp/men/shirts/product.shirt-5-linen-beige.0731737001.html

https://www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/product/men-100pct-premium-linen-regular-fit-shirt-regular-collar-416932COL04SMA005000.html

https://www.massimodutti.com/gb/men/new-collection/shirts/view-all/slim-fit-dyed-100%25-linen-shirt-c911139p8937625.html

If you're gonna have logos on your shirt and they contrast a lot, at least let it be RL or Lacoste.

>>15405156
>>15405146
They are actually in the "acceptale size", but the camera on that photo is very close to them and it makes them look bigger

>>15405183
https://silbonshop.com/es/camisas-sport-poleras

In Spain, the biggest competitor to Zara/MD is probably Cortefiel/PdH, similar on prices. Cortefiel works fine many times for really cheap, if you are on low-budget is a good one:
https://cortefiel.com/es/es/hombre/camisas

>>15405202
why?

>>15405216
It'll look better to normies, so they'll probably think higher of you, even based Sven said that we don't live in a vacuum but a society (love that guy).

Is the patrician EU polo Ralph or Lacoste?

>>15405229
Only Fred Perry reissues, every other single polo is garbage

Corduroys but you should definitely get chinos first.

This is the worst meme that I've ever seen on this thread, you don't even have the W in the picture.

>>15405216
no one is going to know you're wearing a fucking Dior polo and just assume you're too poor for RL

>>15405216
That logo looks bad
>>15405491
>>15405485
Get fucked losers

>>15405225
I never thought about this but it makes sense especially if you want to give a certain impression. I guess it’s like having a Burberry scarf or coat.

Is Lacoste still regarded well for polos and such or does RL take that one? I thought that Lacoste in France was akin to Fred in the UK, historically working class.

Maybe some vintage YSL is worth trying if you want to go for that type of social look or blend with more contemporary fits.

>>15405522
This.

>>15405078
Thank you. That was extremely helpful. Is this a bad hat?

Since we're talking polos and since Massimo is garbage-tier, what's a good banded-bottom polo? Someone mentioned Suitsupply, but I feel like it might be too trimmed and tapered. Looking for a slim fit in the veins of J.Crew.

No idea how people own greenos desu, worst pants going.

>>15405630
It's not bad but it does have some issues, the biggest one is that the herringbone is just a bit too small and that it seems to lack any texture meaning that it's not tweed :(( Tweed flatcaps are actually pretty cheap, around £45 and if you get them used (which isn't advisable since I don't think that there's much of a difference in quality) you'll easily get them for around £10-£20.

>>15405566
In the US, all the Pajeets wear Lacoste, white people usually wear RL.

GREENO GANG RISE UP

FUCK KHAKIS

>>15405758

>>15405770
Never noticed how good black polos look

Can anyone recommend good vintage brands (EU) to look for on ebay?

>>15405807
The brand doesn't really matter since you'll get some brands which don't even exist anymore but still make good quality garments, look at the quality.

>>15405435
I can't wait for the next TIP thread to be an Old Row edition.
Fucking zoomers.

>>15405893
>look at the quality.
Without using brands as a guide, how am I supposed to do that on ebay?

> prep
> poorfag LARPERS

>>15405907
Look at the pictures, if they won't have pictures of everything that you want then you can simply contact the seller and ask him for extra photos of whatever you want.

>>15405913
Not this shit again...
also, this guy is fucking ugly and wont admit it...

Like every single model on all the TIP brand sites are black dudes anymore. What gives?

>>15406034
Lol better stop now anon before you get too red pilled. Even your statement here would get you branded a nazi.

You're going to be replaced. When will you understand that?

>>15405133
All I know is the whale what are the other fly by night Chinese made ass start ups are the others?

>>15405893
Polo Ralph Lauren is all you need you literally are a stupid larping try hard if you buy anything more expensive

Post the mullet guy in the cardigan. I want to see it

>>15406184
when did tip become flyover poorfag general?
macy's isn't the endgame

Wait do ppl actually wear polo Ralph Lauren stuff or is this a joke ? Cuz if you’re serious I have some really bad news for you . The aisles of tj max, Ross, and Marshall’s are filled with it. Shirts for 10-12 dollars. Ppl who wear polo Ralph Lauren spend less than if you bought your clothes from sears or jc penny . And you’re telling me that’s the prep “crem de la crem”. Lmao. Jesus I feel sorry for you. Ppl who wear polo Ralph Lauren are typically very poor ppl who want to pretend like they actually have style or class .

>>15406265
wtf polos do rich WASPs wear then?

>>15406280
Lacoste

>>15406313
def not, that's immigrant tier

It's fairly simple to have sleeves shortened an inch, right? I'm looking at a secondhand Mercer shirt, but it's a 36" sleeve and I need a 35" sleeve

>>15406205
Preppy frat boys don't even care about anything more expensive.
If you made a point about buying something more expensive than Ralph Lauren, you were basically a dandy (which could be a good or bad thing depending how you handle it).

What’s up tippy toodlers! Sperry cru holdin it down

>>15406265
>Shirts for 10-12 dollars
That shit is fake. polo ocbds are $80. You must be talkin about shitty tshirts with a logo on them.

>>15406391
not the same guy but he's right. he is exaggerating on the prices but the places are usually loaded with polo shirts/oxfords/pants with the occasional blazer/outerwear. goodwills are even cheaper.
polo is everywhere and is normie tier. if you paying full price for it you're retarded

>>15406410
>not the same guy but he's right. he is exaggerating on the prices but the places are usually loaded with polo shirts/oxfords/pants with the occasional blazer/outerwear. goodwills are even cheaper.
>polo is everywhere and is normie tier.
WRONG. You have to go to a reputable supplier of Polo, don't you do on Amazon ever? Amazon has Polo crap ranging from all different suppliers and prices, Polo just licenses their name and logo. Go to where rich people live, and buy the Polo shit from there, there is levels to this shit bro.

>>15406420
you're retarded. marshall's/tj maxx/ross get polo wholesale from department stores that just want to dump excess stock.
polo is literally the most entry level bottom tier brand that ralph lauren has except for denim & supply and chaps . polo was founded in the 70's to tap into the desires of looking rich that the middle class has. everything is made in third world countries and marked up because ralph lauren knows that people will just buy polo for the pony on the chest.

Saved his brand though, struggling fashion designer and that mall tier ass label saved his higher end stuff.

You can buy purple label and black label at Marshalls

>>15406318
it's the original and is classic you dumb ass

what's wrong with quarter zip sweaters and why are they not TIP

>>15406318
>>15406605
While Lacoste is seen as a brand for the affluent, a lot of Indian Americans with high paying jobs, (usually second gen immigrants) see Lacoste as the go to polo shirt. They do so to differentiate themselves from the poor indians who buy ralph at Marshalls. It's a surprising intersection between these posts and this one >>15406433

Tldr, minorities love polo shirts

>>15406095
Southern Propper (dog head), Southern Tide (fish) and the other one is unknown for me.
.

>>15406671
so what

>>15406781
Nothing really. Indians will keep on wearing Lacoste and polo.

>>15406781
so who wants to look like a fucking Pajeet

Has Lacoste returned to form? I moved to Fred Perry and Ben Sherman after two polos in a row had the pique lost its shape after just a couple of years.

>>15405435
I got a Southern Tide shirt from Perlis over a decade ago. It's held up well and I really like the color and pattern. I live in the rational part of the country, so we don't get it much up here, but I'd buy again.

>>15406570
I have always loved every purple label item I've purchased. I don't think I've ever owned anything from Polo.

But they're different design aesthetics. Polo is just modernized Brooks. They were basically J Crew in the 80's. Purple isn't nearly so wedded to /tip/.

>>15406801
NRIs and super rich Indians wear Lacoste and Polo.

Indians wear US Polo Association, Van Heusen, or Allen Solly

>>15406331
Yes, it is one of the easiest alterations to make on a shirt.

>>15406433
>everything is made in third world countries and marked up
This is true. Always check and see where clothes are made before you buy.

>>15407594
There are a bunch of new american brands around with decent stuff around. People just hate them for being associated with frat boys

>>15406067
fuck off from the country club Moshe. ivy/prep is wasp culture.

>>15407873
Yeah, I imagine these are popular with dudes sporting 'Bama bowls, but there's just no association up here. Most people don't recognize the fish.

To your point, I avoid VV just because of the association.

I like Dockers.

>>15408109
Greenos or khakis?

Does anyone have inspo for preppy longer hair? Ralph-Lauren-y floppy hair, the sort of haircut you see among Fulham new Sloane types, Drake's models etc.

Are you the guy from two threads ago?

>>15405938
Eye of the beholder...

Very disappointing thread so far, guys

TIP threads are dead. Every single one is the same questions asked over and over again.

>>15408675
This. We need people to start posting OCs, there are usually 60-70 people by the end of each thread but there are usually like 6-9 OCs max.

>>15408727
lmao there has never been more than 20 posters ITT

>>15408743
There's 34 right now?

>>15406516
cringe

You kill your own threads by ripping the shit out of posters who post a fit or going fucking insane at someone who dare step outside of your unwritten TIP rules.

It's also why the WAYW threads are full of just bullshit bait and troll pictures. You're all just really bitter and angry people.

Are you surprised these threads are dead? Like someone who beats and abuses their partner and then acts surprised when they leave.

>>15409038
He's kind of right desu

>>15408675
Ngl the fact that tip is three separate styles is what gimped it from the beginning. Trad will seethe at prep will seethe at ivy will seethe at trad. Like rock paper scissors. People go apeshit when anyone posts a fit whether that fit is good or bad. Unironically reddit, style forum, or ask Andy is better for these styles

new loafers arrived, kinda liking them desu. just need some nice socks to go with them, sockless isnt my cup of tea.

>>15408230
>>15408287
nah he aint me, curious tho as to if anyone has any other ideas

>>15409559

>>15409038
These threads used to be comfy and quiet around a great ago. Looking at the posts and the sheer quantity of shitlosting and retarded advice (just look at the pics and gauge quality bro, Ralph Lauren is all you need! Lol lol) makes me wonder.

What the hell happened? Who are these retards? I used to post regularly and I'd post fits but fuck this man.

>>15409065
Hardly. The threads were fine until relatively recently. You can look at the archives if you want. Plenty of good productive old threads. I remember the worst theses threads had to deal with was people accusing posters of larping and then the threads getting subsequently derailed by the 'discussion'

>>15409560
Lovely loafers. Go white imo. It's radical >>15409567

>>15409038
>going fucking insane at someone who dare step outside of your unwritten TIP rules.
If you look at the people who shit on fits they're usually calling everyone "larpers".

Messy bedroom anon here. I'm going to wear some loafers or maybe some white sneakers with this I reckon.

Cord jacket: j keydge
Shirt: drakes
Trousers: Uniqlo

If you want talk shit, post fit. That will save these threads.

Today's (winter) fit.

>>15409666
It doesn't have enough contrast, you might as well have gone with full black/charcoal because that would look better instead of the navy and black/charcoal fit.

How to be /tip/ when buff?
All the outfits that get posted are at best average and usually skinny. I am fairly jacked due to years of weight training and wrestling.Drape is difficult when damn near everything fits poorly. Any advice or recommendations?

>>15409947
the chad embrace. just accept it and buy clothes that fit or are more flattering, like polos which are supposed to be snug, rather than trying to force a drape lord outfit

also made to measure shirts might help, I saw some sales on because of covid

>>15409947
This is why the sack suit exists.mid-century Americans were better fed than Europeans and generally were bigger so the suits were designed with big people in mind. Shoulders are un-padded, there aren't any vents for a reason. Ivy leagers, whilst not jacked, were definitely athletic and being athletic is a big part of the aesthetic.

>Idea was to play off the gold/blue pinstripes on the trouser as contrast. Tying that together with the gold/blue edge bands on the pocket square
It barely creates any contrast though, NOT GOOD

>>15409947
>>15409958
remember that drape is the interaction of your body and the cut of your clothing. polos look great as >>15409955 mentioned, but yes you should be going for huge '50s cuts like mercer even in your true size instead of sizing up on slim fit. they will look proportional to your body.

>>15410134
Loafers

>>15410228
also remember that "fit" is a bit of a nonsensical concept. clothes should not "fit" your body, or "fit" slim or relaxed, but should be cut to (1) achieve a V-taper or whatever given the limitations of your build and (2) allow for comfort. my exercise is bicycling, and so I have huge calves, thighs, bottom. this means pants cut wide enough to comfortably fit my lower half and then even wider shirts to balance that.

>>15410243

>>15410251

>>15410259
I expected them to be black, but I had doubts if they were dark green or navy. Colour is really messed up.

>>15410375

Please go back

I miss the old TIP threads where people argued over whether straight fit was TIP or not

Seriously, this guy has some really interesting outfits. He wears really colourful stuff and sometimes he does it really good

>>15410766
It's simple though
trad = straight fit/a tiny bit of taper between the knee and ankle
ivy = all the way between slightly tapered trousers and slimfit straight trousers (there are lots of slimfit pics if you want me to prove it.)
prep = whatever you want as long as it isn't sex-core spray on pants.

Here's a test. I'll post some pictures and you decide if it should be trad/ivy or prep. It should be pretty easy.

>>15410918

>>15410920
That looks horrendous

>>15410960
I dunno. I quite like the more casual stuff. I think for /tip/ to be less of a uniform and more of an interesting and fun style it needs to be flexible.

>>15410766
It’s not

>>15411034
it's very trad at least.

>>15411034
Holy shit, you'll never meet a bigger retard than this guy.

Hey do you guys have recommendations for a new pink polo? My old Ralph Lauren (outlet brand :^/ ) got too worn and I need a new one. The Ralph Lauren (real brand) classic cut pink polo fits me wonderfully. Any other recommendations though. I kind of use my polo a lot so it needs to be kind of durable.

>>15411880
Polo Ralph Lauren or Brooks Brothers. You could also try some of the brands from OP pic if you are american.

thoughts on wearing shirts untucked for casual dress?

>>15412355
Depends on if the shirt is designed to be worn untucked or not. Polos can’t be okay. Best quick test is “could this shirt have plausibly come untucked by itself?”.

>>15412437
Polos can* be okay

redpill me on dark trousers + light blazer or light trousers + dark blazer

which looks better? and what occasions do they fit?

>>15412511
Dark blazer+light trousers look better but obviously the other combination can work.

>>15412511
I keep on seeing these types of fits from catalogs where the shoulders are very exaggerated but I have never seen a picture of them.

>>15412655
They look kind of dumb in person. Sack suit isn't very good.
