yeah i guess... but i have broad shoulders. i wear a Large in some raph laurens, but a large in nautica swallows me. And when i put on a medium it just fits weird. Everyones bodies are different


To your point, I can only wear classic fit in RL. If I buy the custom fit mesh or any of that, It is floating around my waist and fits way too tight near my chest and arm area.

They would laugh if I walked in there. Would look like football half-shirts if I tried to wear them.

I basically wear long sleeve button downs all the time. I wear RL Polo and Southern Marsh. RL Polo is classic, but SM has stepped up their game with their button downs. I really like them. I don't have to iron them, but they aren't really starched. They are everyday shirts though, not dressy.

J Crew & Lands are good stuff. It's where I buy most of my things. I do go to Banana for blazers or if I am in a bind for a dress shirt really quick for a certain occasion.

I forget how "southern" this board is.

I rock Alternative Apparel, Vince and brands like that.

J Crew always puts out its best deals at the end of the month (judging by what I see in my emailbox). Currently trying to wait out until the last minute for this navy suit I want.

Side question, where do most of you buy your loafers from? I've been buying most of mine from amazon. But if something else pops up. I'd like to know.

I really like Tommy Bahama's clothes. Very comfortable and look good. A little more pricey than RL but not crazy.

All of my chinos are from J. Crew and I have no complaints over any of them.


I honestly just had to Google what chinos were...
