How about that

>>15697170
Based. I as watching this show now and his fits are always so good.

>>15697197
Yikes. Who is the newfag that made this thread super early?

It's all in the details, friends

Bros, I got a new job after an absolutely BRUTAL job search in a covid world. It's only part time, but I'm planning on either a new sport coat a month or a full suit every 2 months.

>>15697222
why

>>15697224
Why not? I like wearing them and I feel good in them so I want more. Nothing wrong with having a nice collection
My wife makes all the money anyway, my job pays a few bills and the rest is mine

>>15693751
The amount of pure unadulterated SEETHE these threads cause the rest of the board is something I take great pride in. Never let these threads die, bros.

>>15697236
To be fair that thread is filled with horrid fits.
Styles get co-opted quite often and sprezzatura is no exception. Rather than staying faithful to the core tenets of nonchalance and elegance bugmen picked up on it and turned it into a mockery of itself. Same thing happened with workwear. Notice how so many of the dudes sporting trashy, loud, tasteless suits also have hipster beards.

>>15697222
If you're able to buy a new suit every 2 months you're either rolling in cash or you're buying cheap suits

Buy a higher quality suit once or twice a year instead of 6 suits a year

>>15697403
Yeah, seems excessive. If it's me I'd try for 2 full suits a year, and maybe a sport coat every couple months or some new trousers to mix and match with the coats. If you're going to be buying an item regularly, it should be a shirt as they wear out a lot quicker.

The waistcoat is coming along, here is a detail of the inner construction. Probably did this "wrong", as the layer order is outer-pockets-canvas-lining in my case, but usually it is outer-canvas-pockets-lining. The reason for this change is that my relatively thick linen canvas, instead of horsehair interlining, would make the pockets really bulky. Once it's done I'll post a comparison to my cheap RTW waistcoat.

anyone tried removing the sort of annoying embroidery the likes of ralph lauren have? i want a nice sweater but rare is it you find something nice thats cheap and not ruined by obnoxious embroidery.

>>15697495
thanks for reminding me to work on my coat today, anon. looking nice.

>>15697502
It's not worth it. You'll ruin the shirt in the process. Just deal with the pony on the front or find another brand.

>>15697506
even if i baste the fucker to something sturdy first to keep the sweater fabric still? ive seen people recommend razors or clippers for it and i have both to hand.

>>15697508
I'd only do it if I didn't really mind loosing the sweater. If it's a good sweater you like then consider just getting a new one from another brand you could rotate it with. Trust me, removing embroidery is easier said than done

>>15697508
If you take care to cut each thread separately, maybe.

Just post a pic of what you're trying to remove so we can see what you're working with. Smaller stuff is easier than big lettering or a pony

i decided id give it a go with those two methods on my shittiest shirt i only wear when im cleaning or doing shit in the garden just to see what my best case would be, and i think its safe to say i wont be doing this on anything i buy.

attempt with clippers

>>15697533
attempt with an adjustable exposure DE razor. at first i thought the holes produced could be blamed on the poor effort the clippers gave but i think its safe to say the razors done some damage of its own.

>>15697533
>>15697534
so yeah, wont be doing that again. thankfully i had a shitty shirt lying about to test it on that im not sad to lose.

Told you my dude. It's not worth it. All you'll do is ruin the shirt more.

a slightly oversized peacoat. because my machine is too large for the armhole i cant sadly stitch the cuff edge flat so ill have to invest in a sleeve board and press it as firmly as i can i think.

Unlined seersucker jacket for summer? Should I get one made? I'm about to get a bit of extra money soon so now is the time

>>15699340
seersucker or linen, just depends which look you prefer. for me it's linen

>>15699344
I absolutely love linen and have some shirts and pants in it, but the creasing is an issue. I don't want a jacket to look like a frumpled mess. With seersucker you get a nice summer fabric but don't have to worry about it wrinkling to oblivion

>>15699350
Looks like you have your answer then

>>15699351
I should have asked a better question. I mean, is seersucker a good choice given it's bold pattern? Or is something like a lightweight summer wool like fresco a better choice?

Bros, I bought an OTR suit by Jos. A. Banks about 7 years ago, never wore it much, then I got really into suits and the who "sprezzatura" thing when I discovered HRH Hugo Jacomet. I got a nice suit made and now I tried on the JAB suit and wanted to throw up. It's so blocky, tons of padding, fused, and I can't believe I ever wore that crap.
It's custom MTM or bespoke for me.

>>15699375
Ultimately depends on you and what look you're going for. It is a classic fabric but may not fit in everywhere.
Personally I think fresco looks great.

That sprezz troll thread is legit one of the funniest things I've seen on /fa/ in a long time. People are absolutely having a meltdown over people wearing suits and being happy.

>>15699527
Yeah it is quite funny when people dress like clowns, then get made fun of, and then act surprised. Clowns exist so we can laugh at them, why is that so surprising to you?

Why don't you just wear normal, high quality clothes instead of pretending to be something you're not 5 days a week?

>>15698421
I like this very much (apart from the cuff length mismatch).

Sauce?

>>15699595
I dress like this BECAUSE it's high quality

>>15699595
I don't get what you mean by "pretend to be something you're not". Also, wouldn't this be the case for /TIP equally?

>>15699662
Because only pimps and millionaires dress like this. The fact you have to save up to get a suit like this just proves you're not really worthy of having such high quality suit and that you're not good with managing money.

just stop replying

>>15699662
Come on man, you know exactly what I mean. You don't have a job that requires you to wear a suit every day. You're wearing a costume.

>>15699712

>>15699712
The socks and shoes don't go well with your outfit, the rest looks great. Gloves could go into the normal pockets, looks better.

>>15699707
So people can dress a certain way only if their job requires them to? Additionally, who here says that you must wear a suit everyday/everywhere?

>>15699672

>>15699720
Being a cunt for no reason belongs in the TIP thread

>>15699726
I agree on the shoes. I have a pair in darker, colder brown but I've worn them yesterday. As for the gloves, I like having my hip pockets empty, should I want to put my hands in there. I can see how gloves in the breast pocket could look affected though.

>>15699726
Don't ask questions you already know the answer to. You are wearing a costume and everyone knows it, it doesn't matter what the material is or how good the fit is, all people see when they see you is that the clothes are wearing you.

>>15699707
What then, to you, is a default, non-costume outfit?

>>15699712
everyone else here is being a spastic about things but desu theyre not entirely wrong. you dont look natural in that outfit, you look like youre trying too hard with it. find some way of making it more you, more broken in. i make a point of dressing in ways that look like its what i picked out for the day to lounge about the house in. theres also no real compliments in this outfit, it looks like a random assortment of things you thought looked nice.

>>15699712
It's nice but looks more sexcore then Sprezza imo, i know it's hard to pull off a casual winter outfit without ending up in Ivy. If you aren't i would wear a jacket under the coat, the gloves look good but are a little try hardy and the Scarf is a redundant when wearing a turtle neck, unless it's real fucking cold. But it's not: you wouldn't be wearing loafers.

These thread should really just be called "formalwear general" and drop the sprezzatura association completely.

Everyone gets it if you want to wear a suit casually, but the need to link this very simple and respectable clothing choice to an italian concept invented for court etiquette and co-opted by pick up artists just makes people think you guys are insecure about this stuff.

>>15699846
*raided

>>15699595

>high quality

is this a joke?edward green, stefano bemer, yohay fukuda shoes are the pinacle of shoe mking on the planet

so is cesare attolini with sport coats and the list goes on. the highest quality clothes that one can ever purchase is not retarded "runway washion", it's classic menswear from craftsmen who do it for decades.

>>15699867
The whole point is it not being formalwear though

>>15700099
Formal is dictated by societal and cultural current standards not by personal beliefs. Right now, it is formalware in most parts of the western world.

>sprez is going the way of tip

>>15700099
If you wear a suit it looks formal, no matter how you want to slant it. I don't care if it looks more or less "effortless", by today's standards it's formalwear.

>>15700173
The parasites destroy tip and then come here for their next target. It's what those types of pathetic bitter losers do. Just ignore negative posts. No genuine sprez poster is going to be that way.

>>15700177
It does but there are different stages of formal. Blazer/shirt combo is "smart" to the average person but not so formal.

>>15700189
on a positive note, this pepe made me realise how nice a cream shirt and a red sweater could look if done right.

>>15700099
Maybe if you went for the overcoat, peacoat, trench coat, duffel, or safari jacket, it wouldn't be formal.

>>15700214
While finally this is a fit with a denim jacket, it looks over the top with a waistcoat/tie underneath

>>15700219
It's not like a had a choice, I asked about such a thing here twice and got nothing; meaning I have to go and find shit myself. It seems like sprezzatura is more structured in their minds than they claim.

>>15700226
>It seems like sprezzatura is more structured in their minds than they claim.

It is in a way, as elegant does tie in with formal and denim jackets etc. are not elegant (nor formal) .

That's why throwing random items together is not sprezz.

A denim jacket over a tie/waistcoat says to me you're going to some event and are just wearing that to protect your clothing underneath and have every intention to take off the denim jacket (leave it in your car) before entering the event.

I asked for a list of which jackets count and you all just sat there gargling dicks

>>15700257
Because there are cross overs so lists are not exactly set. Can a denim a jacket work in a certain way? I'm not so sure about that. Can a Harrington? I'd say absolutely yes.

Instead of lists, you need to be working on a core and building from that asking yourself does it come across as it's supposed to. How does a denim jacket look over say a suit to you? Elegant, odd or mismatched? To me, it looks mismatched. Now how does a shirt, no tie and a Harrington jacket look? To me matched and does not look unbalanced.

Sprezz is a journey of learning, it's not down to a simple list of an iron set of rules. That's why so often people really fuck it up. Didn't it take Hugo Jacomet many years himself before he felt he mastered the look as much as he can or be fully comfortable.

so apparently a friend of mine knits, and is interested in putting together some fairaisle knits. hes got a pattern to work with and im looking around to find a good colour scheme for him now, anyone got any advice?

>>15700257
There is no list, I'd say that a denim jacket can look stylish/elegant in the right way, just not in this combination and I have no good suggestion for a fit. That is still no reason to start creating "rules" and outright banning it

I have a hard time thinking of even a sports coat as casual and carefree.

>>15700574

Maybe you should read the thread and learn to wear something other than hoodies.

>>15700712
But they restrict movement unless you pay a thousand for a canvassed suit-shaped jacket. No other outerwear is like this.

>>15700728
Interesting point - a lot of spretzzatura imaging is of relaxation, rarely engaging with the environment. Maybe the carefree aspect is "free from having to do anything", like getting things off high shelves or lifting your own luggage.

Don't respond kings, wear what you like! :^)
Adding some inspo! Very nice colorblocking technique, elegant jacket and high quality leather shoes. This specific fellow gives it his own twist: a colorful but carefree green wig and a fancy top hat!

Reminder to ignore all trolls and keep wearing your sexy ass suits and jackets, friends.

Got a new job and I need new pieces of everything so I have stuff to rotate throughout the work week. I will be wearing shirt, tie and dress pants every day.
Should I focus on getting multiples of shirts or trousers? And what are some good ties that are quality but not crazy expensive?

>>15699375
Id go for fresco before seersucker as it is more versetile>>15699384

>>15700214
>>15700219
I think if they ditched the tie or at least replaced it with a more casual woolen tie (and absolutely get rid of that fucking chain) it would like nice. Probably need to pair it with some brown boots to make it more casual though

Please ignore last link. Misclicked like an idiot

on skin tones, is it better to go with colours that naturally fit, or adjust your colours to project an aesthetic you want? i suspect im naturally better suited to cooler colours however i want to project a certain level of visual warmth in the cooler months.

Not sure why there is that massive crease in the chest - should be pretty flat
Also lots of creasing over the right arm - too tight or bad cut?

>>15702044
Looks good but why is there a big crease in the chest? Is it just a DB thing that happens when you raise your arms? I don't own a DB jacket so I'm not sure how they move compared to a SB

Unironically thrift them or buy batches (40 ties, 1 euro each. There'll usually be plenty of 100% silk ones among them. Definitely beats buying one 100% silk tie for the same price) off ebay or whatever. There's loads of people that don't have to wear a tie anymore and need to get rid of them. The added benefit is that thrifting you get some older ties that are quite a bit broader than the narrow bullshit you see these days.

Just got an antique waistcoat and morning coat (dark green herringbone heavy wool, circa 1910), for next to nothing. It's exactly my size; it needs no alterations whatsoever.

>>15702995
score. when do you plan on wearing it?

>>15701408
Honestly the most pathetic thing I've ever read. Fits well in /fa/

>>15703121
The waistcoat is easy enough to wear. The morning coat is hard because of the cut, but the colour helps.

>>15702649
Not like that

>>15702044
Bro, that shirt is toast. Throw it out and get a new one. It's bringing down your otherwise decent fit. Get something with collar stiffeners so that shit doesn't happen

Here you go. The second one is out of focus, but you can see the fit anyway.

>>15704843

>>15704960
It is. Bit hard to wear, though. The cut may be too old fashioned.

>>15704999
nice digits
the morning coat is practically unwearable unless youre surrounded by people in tweed desu.

>>15705023
I agree. The morning coat might be very nice on an autumn trip to the countryside; I was mostly surprised by the fit without alterations.The waistcoat can be used with tweed and lots of things, I think; so at least that is very wearable.

>>15705059
this might sound sacrilege but can you have the morning coat altered to something more versatile at all?

>>15705063
I don't think so. It has buttons on the back at waist level, so even cutting it would leave it looking odd. It will be more of a curiosity, and very good if I need a costume.

>>15705068
could you casualise it in any way at all?

>>15705087
A suppose you could dress it down, by using it as an open overcoat, with a sweater underneath and a scarf.

>>15705138
You could also donate it to a museum if you find no use for it

Unstructured jackets are less restricting. Look for one with high arm holes, it's all about the size of the armholes

>tfw gotten 2 new suits this year but due to lockdown don't feel like taking pictures with them

Not necessarily sprezz but what kind of waistcoat would go best with a wool charcoal suit if I had zero chance of matching the fabric?
I would assume go for contrast since close matches look awful, but I also don't want to look TOO dandy (might be the wrong place to say that, kek).

>>15704843
amazing shirt, where did you get it?

>>15706916
At a local tailor, it was my first custom shirt (also my favourite). But it's a fairly standard style, so you could probably find something like it fairly easily (contrasting collar, Winchester shirt).

>>15705563
I hadn't considered that, but it certainly is something to think about.

So I am looking to replace the soles on my boots, pic related. Do you all have any suggestions on what kind of style I should go with ? I dont believe I will be doing a rubber sole.

>>15707250
Forgot pic

>>15706966
None. The cheaper the brand the more they appeal to the masses the larger the armholes are made as a one size fits all solution. As far as I know there are no made to measure programs that let you change the armhole size. Best solution I can give you on a budget is buy a quality jacket on sale or used and take it to a great tailor. He has to be above average as most tailors won't even touch the shoulder/sleeve. For $180-$200 you can adjust the armholes to your liking.

>>15706966
Pini Parma has great stuff for very competitive prices. I have some pants from them that I love.

Duck I'm so tired bros. The last two weeks leading up to thanksgiving break are brutal. I've worn jeans and a polo every day this week. I might even break and wear a t shirt tomorrow.

>>15707704
Thanks anon. I ask because looking at their size chart the front rise on a 32w is only 10.5 inches. That seems low rise to me but then again they could be making up the extra room in the back rise.

You don't do this do you sprezz? How do you expect to fill out your clothes when you have no chest, shoulders, or leg muscles? You don't have to be a gymrat but at least get to ottermode. I guarantee everything will start to fit better once your clothes actually has something to drape on

todays a lazy day but i will pick up the iron later, thanks for the prod

>>15708637
That is why I can't stand that guy. No muscles whatsoever, incredibly sloped shoulders, pencil neck. He looks bad in everything he wears which is kind of impressive for a guy who mainly wears bespoke. On top of that he has an unflattering beard and close-set eyes. His face isn't ugly but just unattractive and gives off an odd feeling, uncanny valley like. Every photo he has the same vacant expression in his eyes. If I were a tailoring house I would not want him in my clothes at all.

>>15708730
Thanks! I even found a model featuring this rise. Classic navy color, unstructured shoulder.

Nice. They really did everything, did they?

>>15708740
You seem a little envious m8

>>15708637
I always hated this guy. He's so pretentious. I read a review of his where he reviewed a budget brand and the entire review is him going:
>not as good as my 5000 bespoke Ciffonelli piece
>stitching not as good as my handstitched folded 1000 times bespoke blah blah
>doesn't compare to my Ribonacci blah blah blah
God, shut the fuck up. We get it, nothing but the best for you. But why even write reviews if you won't be objective? Also he's a bald faggot so his opinions are irrelevant

>>15708799
They're called Siren Suits. The idea was that you had something more or less presentable to wear that you could throw on at a moment's notice when an air raid siren went off and you had to run to a bomb shelter.

>>15708637
What makes it onions?

Anyone have experience with Collaro? They seem like luxire but with better cuts and more customization.

>>15708962
Everything but the clothing itself. This nigga is proof that clothes can't make up for the body

>>15708965
Never heard of them untill your post but I'm gonna check them out and maybe buy a pair
I'm needing new pants anyway

>>15709014
Yep. Been playing around on their website for the past 10 minutes or so. I'll definitely get a pair just to see how they are and try out the brand

>>15709038
Are you doing the trial fit for $70?

>>15708965
>>15709038
Checking them out too. Used Luxire a few times but never heard of these guys. Anyone got coupon code. Going to try trial pants and shirt too.

Guess I might as well ask here, I haven't posted on /fa/ for years but I remember there was a pretty funny tumblr blog called like "sick fit bro" or something where he would mention sprezzy shit/menswear all the time and basically take the piss out of menswear.

Does anyone know what I'm on about?

>>15709051
Probably.
I'm just phoneposting at work like a shit bag, when I get home I'll check out their site on my computer in more detail

>>15709221
Check their instagram

>>15709237
No but I'd love to see as I don't take this stuff too seriously and can definitely have a laugh at all this

>>15708965
Something about them being made in Singapore is just way more comforting than Luxire being made in Pooinlooland

>>15709242
When I used to post on /fa/ back in the day and it was all goth ninja rick owens type shit, ocbd desert boots menswear (I think this evolved into reddit shit, I dunno) and tripfag drama. I don't know how much has changed now, lots of zoomer sadboy/eboy bullshit and more nazi shit maybe?

This blog I'm thinking about was pretty popular. I didn't even care about tumblr but I bookmarked this guy's page because he would just rip on everyone posting menswear stuff on tumblr, mostly the way over the top shit. It definitely had "fit" in the name. Like "nicefitbro" or "coolfitbro" or something, idk it was a while ago.

>>15709247
This and idk if they're working with CommonSuits but their cuts seem very similar

>>15708965
How do these stack up to Echizenya?

Speaking of Asian brands Craftsman Clothing is having their Black Friday Sale. There goes half my paycheck.

>>15709260
Not sure if the companies are related, but Singapore is an under rated menswear powerhouse.

Another great Singapore sprezz brand. I'll be compiling a list soon and adding them to the OP post for future threads.

Anything else that needs to be changed, edited, removed or added to the OP text?

Is this combo, charcoal flannels trousers and navy sport coat, 2 suitlike to wear?

also, for real did any of you guys wear a sport coat outside of work(before covid)? like i think I'd stick out like a sore thumb if I walk in a pub with a sport coat in the weekend

>>15710131
Is that your pic? I think it looks great
And yeah, once I turned 30 I pretty much tossed out any hoodie I owned and stop wearing t-shirts. I started wearing a sport coat as my main jacket, and my confidence went through the roof. You just gotta rock it. If you care what people will think then you've already lost

>remember i own a sports coat
>take old tweed sports coat out of storage
>spent £120 when i was 19 and going to uni
>thought it was a lot at the time
>check label
>its not even 100% wool, and it looks tattier for it
>wash it because it smells of shed
>it fits ok after, but looking at it head on and not through a mirror it looks like shit
>looks like its been rubbed against something a lot
>cord patches look shit and badly placed
>looks like its trying to be a shooting jacket, but a really shit one
>the white specks in the fabric look like bits of tissue paper

>>15710131
It looks great an is very suitlike, maybe choose a lighter tone for the trousers if you want to avoid a suit look.
For the pub you could still wear a tweed jacket if sticking out is your concern.

https://www.hockerty.com/en-us/men/unstructured-blazers/
Unstructured custom order blazers for ~220USD. I picked out a seersucker jacket, patch pockets, wide peak lapels, and a few other options.
200 bucks is cheap enough to not care if they're not super amazing or not, especially since it's completely unstructured which is the absolute dream for hot weather.

Complisult.

What material does this look like? Does this look like cotton? This is the exact look I want in a casual jacket.
I'm pretty sure it's cotton

I pretty much don't want structured jackets at all. No padding, no canvassing, just the jacket feeling light as a breeze. It's actually really hard to find unstructured jackets that aren't garbage without going the MTM route.

>>15709247
>>15709260
>>15708965
Ordering their trial pants and shirt. I'll let you guys know when they come. Be interesting to compare with Luxire's stuff. I've never particularly minded that their factory is in pooland, but Singapore is probably a decent step up I'd imagine.

>>15711758
Yeah probably cotton, maybe with a bit of wool mixed in considering how smooth it looks compared to normal twill for instance.

>>15711791
What's your budget? Many of the stores mentioned in the thread can do stuff for $200 if you catch a sale. Also see pic rel. I just got a Spier and Mackay jacket on sale for like 200, they only line the sleeves and tops of shoulders, which seems pretty normal for Neapolitan styled things.

>>15711365
Saved. Idk how to sow a button yet but I will try this. Thank you based trouser anon

>>15711365
Can you post a photo of the ones you made?

>>15711835
Considering I want unstructured, 200USD should be realistic, since much of the cost of a jacket is the canvassing. And thanks for that pic, I saved it and will be referring to it a lot in the future for finding brands to check out

>>15711365

Annotations 2/2

Does not include the fly cover and belt, it's really easy to get common dimensions from something you own already, I do it like this all the time.
Make sure to take the waist measurement at the point where your trousers should sit, i.e. natural waist line for high rise, hip bone for mid rise, etc.

>>15712672
One last remark

>>15711868
Here you go. Left version is without pleats, rise to hip bone, no correction for sagging front and crease line, as explained in >>15712664
I get this on RTW trousers, too, so it's easy to check whether you actually need this adjustment.
The second one obviously has pleats and a higher rise, the front sags even if I go to my natural waistline, so I did the correction and it results in a straight waistband.

Ordered this off Spier & Mackay off their sale/liquidation page.
$99 for an unstructured cotton blazer I can wear in hot weather? Don't mind if I do

>>15708276
How do I steal this look /fa/ggots?

>>15707150
Based dad.

>>15712691
I want to practice making clothes, would you say cheap bedsheets are a good place to start? I feel like expensive material would make me too scared to even start

>>15713443
most tailors just practice in cheap muslin but you do you senpai

>>15713443
This one said it >>15713449, also how cheap are cheap bedsheets? They should be sufficient for a pair of trousers.
The cheapest muslin I found online was about 5 or 7 EUR/m, the fabric of the blue trousers was a scrap sold for 6 EUR, the other one is 9 EUR/m. Fabric from your local shop is about 15 EUR/m. You need about 1.5m of fabric for trousers.
Consider this, I think that bedsheets are about as expensive unless you take really old ones that you want to throw out anyway. You won't be able to wear the bedsheet trousers later, but there are affordable fabrics that don't look too bad.
You are right, though, I wouldn't start out with really expensive stuff either.

>reindeer antlers

Faux pas desu, like wearing fairisle in May

>>15710131
Yeah that's too low contrast, looks wack. Both pieces look good but you need to combine them with other stuff.

Also I can't remember ever wearing anything to the pub besides a suit or sport coat. Most of my friends do as well.

>>15710168
>the white specks in the fabric look like bits of tissue paper
This one's autism, but the rest is a real problem. Fortunately for you buying decent-or-better sport coats second hand in the UK is ez mode so you can easily remedy this with £50.

>>15712315
ghastly beyond description

>>15713520
aye that £50 is a touch too much for right now. maybe later when im more flush. i also mean the specking is pretty badly done, it legit looks like i washed it with a tissue in the pocket.

What do you guys feel about this jacket for 200 dollarydoos? The fabric is cashmere from loro piana and the jacket itself is from samuelsohn.

>>15711365
is this the german pattern on cutter and tailors forum?

>>15713625
Basically yes, they do the backside angle a bit differently and didn't explain the pleats

>>15713644
im gonna save the archive link to this thread in that case for when i eventually order some muslin cloth. they look a lot better on you than they do in the illustration.

can i ask, do you have any suggestions for sourcing higher quality fabrics? i remember you said you buy whats available to you before but looking at cutter and tailor it seems most of what i want is only really available to professionals. i would really love some brisbane moss or similar quality wide wale corduroy.

>>15713650
Yes, as far as I understand you need to have an actual business and order commercially from those companies. At least their website does not offer to buy cloth directly. Can't hurt to contact them and ask if they sell to you as an amateur, too?
There are retailers for those fabrics, too, though. For one, I found a shop with higher quality fabrics when I was looking for Harris tweeds. There are some mills/shops that sell organic cloth, those are either small businesses that want to provide high quality or it's a shop that sells cloth from a larger manufacturer and gets a certification for the organic label.
It boils down to looking repeatedly and trying loads of different search terms.

>>15713622
I'm not sure it's that special.
What would you wear it with?

>>15713735
any chance of a link? ideally id like to lay hands on some top end corduroy, see what i make of it. brisbane moss is the company that came up for that.

I have
>summer wool trousers in light and mid gray
>four season cotton trousers in greenish beige
>mid grey flannels
I live in the temperate climate zone and wear a sportcoat about twice a week.

Should I cop light grey flannels, light brown/beige cords or another pair of year round cotton trousers in stone?

>>15713622
Go for it. I love brown suits personally

>>15711889
np, mane. Is this you too?>>15712719 Cotton blazers are always nice. I was thinking of getting one from S&M during the sale, but I just got a Ralph Lauren seersucker jacket at a liquidation sale (for like $20 lol) so I think I'm set for summer things at the moment.

>>15714138
You can definitely use some blues. Maybe an all season navy and an all season or linen medium blue.

Posting one of South Africa bro's fits because I don't have anything of my own right now.

Oh yeah this thread is long

Fuck it, rate my clearance purchase. The collar's too wide on my shirt and getting the sleeves to show is a bit awkward, but that's all I found wrong with the clothes themselves.

>>15714459
Yeah, that was me. I jumped at seeing that jacket for 99 bucks.
Still looking for a seersucker jacket though as well. What site did you find that RL jacket on? Are there any more?
