What shoes do I go for when wearing this basic look?
Boat shoes? Desert boots? Oxfords? I really don't have much of a clue and I usually just end up wearing something shitty like vans

I am new to /fa/ so I'm not too familiar with posting etiquette and asking for opinions. I am expecting a bunch of ridicule but if any help or advice actually comes from it I would be very grateful

I probably should note that I live in Australia. Although winter is coming up, most of the year it is pretty fucking hot so multiple layers aren't that popular. But... winter is coming.

being a manlet isnt as bad as /fa/ makes it seem /fa/ has a hardon for japanese streetwear but 90% of asians are manlets anyway so
if by 'medium build' u mean fat then ur gonna want to lose weight because any excess weight is gonna fuck with ur proportions making u look shorter
wear slim/black/avoid ostentatious details
if ur proportionate u can literally pull off most things anyway
if ur jeans are too long dont cuff them too much/make the cuffs big ur gonna want to either hem or pinroll

a big problem for ppl starting out is a lack of knowledge of what to get so u go clothes shopping w/o purpose waiting for something to jump out at u and it never works

u need an idea of what u want
start with basics (tees, jeans, some outerwear)
ur in australia so avoid the low-tier shops like cotton on, factorie, yd etc because they're not gonna look good on u
once u have good quality basics u can work on fleshing out a wardrobe
dont be afraid to spend more on clothes because they're going to last u
a $50 plain white shirt that has a nicer cut/fit will look better and have more value than 5 $10 shirts (usually)
