despite rugged footwear being over, had to bust out my RW's for this inclement NJ weather yesterday. Here's the fit of my last first day of undergrad classes:

also, whats the new challenge? i'm down for the one article of clothing worn 3 ways.

This is great, A. Excellent example of dressing up rugged boots.

Entry inspired:

As far as the challenge goes...I propose we keep the rugged footwear challenge until this Monday, especially extending it so the members can vote on what the next challenge would be. So far it looks like it's up between layering and wearing clothing multiple ways. We will eventually do both, but the winner will just be the first challenge, and the other will be the second one.

Thanks, man. I have ticket pocket on all of my jackets except the Thom one since that has patch pockets.

Thank you, kind sir.

Thanks, man!

You gotta look out for those deals, man. J. Crew gets pretty cheap after Xmas especially when they have the half off on the sale, then 35-40% off on top, and add the 15% student on top.

You can still find some great deals at GAP man

Just a suggestion, I think Adrian (the OP) can add a poll to the thread so we can vote on future challenges.

Anyone wear Nudie Thin Finn? I really want the Superused Grey pair, but EVERYWHERE is sold out, but found a pair 1 size bigger than what I actually wear.. I usually wear 33x34, but luckily found a 34x34.. just wondering is this a huge difference? Noticeable difference? Will it shrink if I washed them?

copped the camo jack purcells pray they arent too snug

Let's take a guess at how deep of a discount this will go down to

im liking that camel sportcoat

 

[pinoy732]

Thanks for the love Wis and for the blog post!
As for adding polls, I'm down to do that guys but being that I have never done that before, if I add one, would it be shown on this page or the first post only?
If it will be on this page, what exactly are the challenges being proposed?

Also dealing with sales, when I copped that J.Crew sweater a few days back, they had 50% off final sale in stores stackable with 15% student discount. If still running, definitely go check that out.

It is definitely nice and luxurious. But $1k? for a sports coat that's not fully canvassed with functional button holes and lapel hole? And all camel hair is not equal too. Me thinks J. Crew's is mediocre at best.

That camel... 

Anyone have some nice scarves? It seems like they last a while, so I should splurge on a nice one.

The description states that the buttons at the cuffs are nonfunctional and the camel hair is sourced from England's Joshua Ellis mill (for whatever that's worth). No mention of whether it's fully canvassed, half canvassed or fused. With that said, a price point of nearly 1k seems extreme for a J. Crew sportcoat.

In addition to the JT pic up there. Timberlake and Tom Ford will be working a whole lot together for the album.

Thin Finns are EXTREMELY tight man.It might be better that you have to go up a size. It will shrink when you wash them, but they will stretch right back out with wear. Most people I know that get Thin Finns size up anyway.

@W I love that sportcoat but I'm pretty sure that's the most expensive thing I've seen from J Crew! :x
