re: True or False: Wearing a shirt & tie with no jacket is a look for poors?

Wearing a jacket when you aren't cold is better?

It makes no difference.

Short sleeve with a tie is pretty much for idiots.

Sorry, the jacket gets a little warm after riding my bike all day knocking on doors.

Its more common in the South because people dont want to deal with wearing a jacket when they go outside to their car or whatever.

I do it all the time including today when it was too hot to wear a jacket.

How the frick is this 5 pages?

MFers just buy a cheap navy jacket.

Nice sentiment, but I can't show up to clients like that. No tie? Cool. No jacket? I'm getting pulled aside, anywhere in the world.

They key is to know your fabrics and suit construction. Unlined, no tight weaves, natural fabrics on the jacket, and it becomes the least of your problems. I've sweat through the both sides of my collar and a f*@ing tie and the jacket was not the issue.

The issue is that the men's stores will stock anything and everything they're told to, so the store in Laffy gets nearly the same inventory as they sell in Grand Rapids. Always, always, always buy summer weight jackets/suits. You can always layer up, but you can only pack so many sweat rags in your jacket/bag to deal with the aftermath if you buy a generic suit with a lining. 220s fabric means dudes think they're buying luxury or some crap. If you live in Scotland, OK.

Do you see how you can see through the suit (against light) on the model here:



That's the kind of jacket I wear. I'm not doing a deep dive now, but I'm guessing that's a Havana wool jacket. That's 100% what I rock.

No, not gay, but I am a sweaty MF'er.
