>>14516261
a true prep is 6'+ and athletic af from growing up playing sports like rugby/football/soccer/etc... your incel manlet ass would have a hard time reaching their jaw let alone breaking it. also, reminder that inspo posted in these threads is not prep, its neo-hipster-prep

It is Beaufort, thanks. Just noticed Beaufort has 6 buttons and the other 2 models I said have 5

>>14515920
Had to make a correction here, I referenced the Ashby jacket but this pic is of the "lightweight" version of the Ashby jacket, which coated with a different wax to make it lighter, so it isnt the original Ashby Jacket, this is.

it's really not about that, society needs to have some sort of dignity, that's all it is, at least aim for something higher, instead of trying to drag everyone down to your level

Its incredible that people get so mad at inoffensive clothing

why do cricket players wear sweaters? they must roast to death in those things

Repeating request from previous thread:
/r/ing pics of well-fitting OCBD's worn naturally, not models or posed photos. Trying to figure out exactly what to go for when I see my tailor.

Fit for today

>>14516952
There isnt a perfect fit. It will all depend on how you want it and the shape of your bode. You can go for slim fit if you are thin and if not for regular fit. You have here some pics of decently fitting ones:
https://imgur.com/a/cbu1N

most of my button downs are fitted poorly, however i throw a sweater over them to make the overall fit look better. is this a reasonable cope or am i deluding myself?

What's the male version of Anne Frank-core?
I want to look like a jew from prague from the 20's.
Probably wrong thread, I'm sorry.

>>14517027
Personally I think it's fine yeah, if you're not gonna take off the sweater.

But honestly, shirts can be tailored. Might end up being more expensive than the cost of the shirt, depending on the alteration and the shirt you got in the first place, but it can definitely be worth it.

>>14516999
waste of trips
Who said perfect fit? Well-fitting is what was written, also not models or posed photos. You linked the styleforum imgur that has been going around for half a decade and runs the entire gamut from sexcore tight to gangster rap baggy.

I would like to see photos of OCBD's worn in natural settings, not staged. You recommend slim fit for thin and regular for not. What does that look like when worn casually without the photographer/company in mind? Action shots, if you will.

>>14516999
Only acceptable answers.

>>14517053
Everything else is lanklet cope.

>>14517045
It should fit like the one from last pic imho

>>14517055
This one is not bad at all, if its hot and humid, you´ll thank that bagginess

>>14517027
Yes, do it

>>14517045
Here's my advice. Go to a shop and take a tape-measure with you. Try on some shirts and measure the shirt you like best. It's really up to personal preference how you like your shirt but I generally like some baggyness with an oxford. It's something to slouch in. If you feel it's at all tight against your skin, that's a nono. You also want it to be long, like 80 at least, so that you can actually tuck the thing in.

Current temp is 98, the feels like is 108.... oh cawd

>>14517062
Last time I posted the whole pic I got told the shirt was too baggy, amongst other things. Maker's Kamakura, shoulders fit perfectly, this is the slim fit. I am not fat but definitely not thin, I lift regularly and have a thick core.

>>14517072
That is fine, if you tuck it in better you´ll avoid that baggy effect on the waist

>>14517072
Comments, whilst harsh, are only ever accurate 50% of the time. I lift as well, you'll never get a fit like some of those pictures who are ottermode not thiccboys. You might want to get higher waisted trousers though, will help with your proportions IMO.

>>14517086
Tuck it in better how? Shirt stays? If I sit down and stand again this is what happens. Tried military tuck, tucking into underwear, no difference.

>>14517094
Was gonna say military tuck

What is prep sportswear?
What should I wear when out running?

Thoughts on Lands End jeans?

>>14517155
Non-graphic tee or polo shirt
If wearing shorts, get some that stop above the knee, not below.

I guess a tracksuit could work, as long as the cut isn't one of those weird modern ones where the legs taper near the feet and it's some relatively minimalist design like pic related

>>14517155
Sweatshirt (grey)
Short shorts (I like to wear j.crew drawstring 6")
Tee-shirt (grey)
Trainers (classic)
Optional
University hoodie

>>14517155
I wear rugby 7 jerseys for nearly everything, I have 3 different ones. If I go running outside of the city, I usually wear a tigerstripe camo tshirt

>>14517239
Not prep

>>14517288
I know, but for sweating and getting dirt is good

>>14516999
jfc christ, most of these look incredibly tight in the torso

>>14516952
Eat a meal then take your shirt to your tailor. Have him pin it then sit down. If the buttons pull then have him let out some fabric. You should be able to pinch a little fabric before the buttons start to pull.

>>14517155
I'd say it is almost the opposite of the reserved casual wear.
Short shorts, bright/ugly technical running trainers and a plain tee or perhaps a rugby top.

>>14517155
short shorts + university t-shirt and whatever trainers work best for you (preferably not too flamboyant with their coloring)

Got a girlfriend and wearing SLP to their family reunions seems a bit off. Should i cop all of pic related to have casual outfits I can wear to blend in around normies? Or are the things there too basic and shit tier quality?

>>14517998
do euro prep of you have slp proportions

>>14517998
Why anon? Don’t be who you are not. Be yourself

I want to dress modestly but holy crap prep and ivy is cringecore af

>>14518001
I don't have SLP proportions, I'm 5'8" and skinny fat.

>>14518025
I still need to learn how to dress "normal" though, can't wear leather wyatts, skinny jeans, and white tees my whole life.

>>14518083
gross

>>14518067
That is close minded. Stop thinking in black and white meme terms. What do you define as
>modest
? Does that mean not flashy? Bc that’s what most Prep fits try to be. Ivy is on the more flashy rebellious side though, such the adoption of the penny loafer

>>14518090
>not flashy? Bc that’s what most Prep fits try to be. Ivy is on the more flashy rebellious side though, such the adoption of the penny loafer
But it is still subtle.

So when you say modest that can mean different things.
>minimal
>plain
>subdued
>classical
>traditional
>laidback
>basic
>simple

You can have a very expensive high end Minimal or Classic barebones style or a very cheap Prep style

Alright lads I require some assistance. I’m a 6’1 lanklet. I am working to fix my lanklet status but that will take time and in the meantime I look like shit in most summer clothes. How do I dress well and hide my shitty physique while also not dying of heatstroke because I live in the south?

>>14516634
I’m actually a prep who’s lib. You guys get more triggered by the idea of someone being triggered than by a person getting triggered. Calm down.

Your party/faction of society used to be empaths who took pity on society's most antisocial and tried to help them gain acceptance. Now it's run by the antisocial and they're on the warpath against everyone.

Nearly everything there is good. Buying all that is a lot of money

>>14518321
Whats tragically ironic is how it's actually neo-liberal methodology that creates poverty and the concurrent need for a "social welfare system". Poverty is simply a supply-demand issue. The more citizens you invite into the nation, the more jobs you need to create/

reposting this last thread died as i posted it, what are your thoughts on Suede. Can it be used formally , how do you wear Suede etc.


Some thoughts on "Sueding" Footwear as it pertains to Design Choice Implications, and "Style/Social Cue Ramifications"

=====+ The process of "Sueding" the shoe, literally involves the tearing of the flesh's outer surface, to reveal the inner flesh of the hide.

=====+ Implications:
> The Designer is basically "ripping" the flesh down to its absolute insides. Suede is "for all to see", it is both luxurious, and endearing, but maybe slightly vulnerable.
>It will never be "lustrousy" and shiney, like a standard "Leather" Design can be.
>It implies "bare-bones", minimalism
>It's saying "Here, this is Suede, this is the Hide I chose, and this is the colour I chose."

=========+ Conclusions:
>Does this mean it cannot be "formalized"?
No, of course not.
>Does this mean it is inherently "Limiting"?
Well, Yes! That is due to its intrinsic "Minimalism".

=========+ Ramifications:
>What does this "say" to Society when I wear Suede?

What are you Trad Prep or Ivy

>>14518757
Neither, really. I experiment with my style a lot right now. One day I'll dress trad prep, the next day I'll be comfcore. I'm trying to figure out what style I like the most and what attracts tops.
It seems like most tops like the idea of "corrupting" a preppy-looking twink so maybe I should just embrace it.

Infinity Scarves...yay or nay TIP ?

Where to get D-ring belts in EU? I only see El Ganso ones, but they are out of stock

>>14516238
the color looks like the ashby. i bought an ashby, realized it was a mistake, gave it to my sister, and then bought myself a beaufort. the ashby was cut way to slim for me and I'm a skeleton (5'8 120ish?). if trying one on in store, try tying your shoes with the jacket on. the ashby's arm holes and shoulder were way too tight for me and insanely uncomfortable- couldn't raise my arms at all without discomfort. the beaufort is roomier like a barn coat and has more tartan lining, and made in england (ashby in moldova). i hated the ribbed cuffs on the bedale. beaufort in black for me and i love it, gets mad compliments.

>>14516099
I just realised how awful the OP's pic is. The first guy looks fine if not annoyingly slim fit with a european-style jacket (padded shoulders?). The middle picture looks all smug and European as fuck but not the least bit /trad/. That stubbly nonsense needs to go, as well as the peaked lapel blazer (with its short hem and its DOUBLE VENTS) Also his trousers are super low-rise which always looks terrible but especially when combined with the open style of hem you have here a you can see the shirt peeking out like a little blue erection. The far right is borderline sex-core with that stupid trimmed beard and the tight as fuck EVERYTHING.

>>14518594
>Cringey as fuck.

I agree, really you should wait until you're at least 30 (my age) before dressing like this. I bet most of you kiddos look like report of the week larpers.

>>14518973
Can these threads have an age verification? Looks like a bunch of zoomers from the WAYWT thread have invaded.

>>14518973

>>14518979
According to a strawpoll a few weeks ago, most posters were above 20 yo. The sad reality is, most posters sound like larpy underaged idiots.
These threads became abhorrent the moment they started poping up on a regular basis and reaching the bump limit.

>>14518979
It seems so. Because this thread is populated by people between 21 and 25 years old (most in 23-25 range)

>>14518963

Does anyone have a suggestion for loafers that are wider on the outside of the foot, while still being quite snug in the heel? EU preferred, Alden, for example, is crazy expensive here. Budget around 400€. I have tried Heinrich Dinkelacker, Skolyx, Morjas, Myrqvist, Carlos Santos, Sanders, Meermin so far, and all have been too narrow.

Its probably the best combination you can do. Great contrast with navy and less with lighter blues.

You have to avoid shiny yellows. With soft yellows is quite good, for example with ocbd

Rancourt. They offer up to EEE and heels are fairly narrow

Except for shoes, full Drake's. Looks great

>>14521476
All his pics look so fake, it's like he memorized what other people at his income level do and copied them. Clothes are usually pretty nice though

>>14521183
Mate. It's amazing that you've completely missed out on British shoes. They're almost all wider than European shoes and superb quality. Loake, Crockett and Jones, trickers, cheaney, etc etc

It's amazing that anyone would even consider buying Alden (even without the insane euro markup) when they're are so many quality brands in Europe to choose from.

>>14521249
Pic demonstrates how important fit is. This is pure sexcore.

>>14521522
It is SEXcore indeed, but it was one of the first ones that came up in Google Images by searching "navy shirt white pants"

>>14521499
> it's like he memorized what other people at his income level do and copied them
Elaborate, because all his pics are at home and he just poses...

>>14521183
I would get either J.M. Weston 180s or Crockett & Jones Harvards/Bostons. They're slightly above your budget, but they're worth it.

I wouldn't even consider buying Alden in Europe.

>>14521547
Look at his home. The art, the furniture, the plants, the arrangement. It screams Rich Techie but has no actual originality or soul to it.
Same for his clothes. He buys Drake's catalog and admittedly looks pretty good sometimes but a lot of the time he appears unnatural. It's like he's trying too hard to project a certain image, one that he himself isn't sure of but hopes others will be convinced by.

White pants only look good on old Italian gigolos in Instagram pictures. White pants are awful, and you need to coordinate your entire outfit around them. Very UNversatile.

>>14519515
id on the glasses please?

There is nothing related to Tradition in dressing like a fucking right wing liberal capitalistic conservative, you should call this shit something like "con-core"

>>14521253
j press yellow flap pocket OCBD is a great shade of yellow btw.

>>14521554
I think he is not even trying with the furniture, some stuff I am sure that is from IKEA (the shelves or the garden chair for example). Also, the walls are overloaded with shitty drawings, you wont find that in old money houses. About the clothing, many photos are unnatural indeed, as any photo in which you pose, like the one I posted before. But the overall fits are quite good

>>14521557
Blue shirt and white pants. So hard... You can put anything on top and it will work out well, you dont need to worry.

Yep, just checked it and its nice. There is a decent sale atm on JPress. Its a shame that ordering from EU is terribly expensive because of shipping and taxes, because if not I would get some stuff from there.

>Rich Techie
>old money
He copies other rich techies. Buddhist staues, shitty random art, bookshelf arranged just so, (faux) leather chair, wicker basket, etc. It looks like a few dozen other techie houses that have been in magazines since the dotcom boom two decades ago.

>>14521669
Tell you what, if you even have to ask yourself whether this or that looks old money enough, then you're not fucking old money. The fucking larping in here is getting old.

So what prep or ivy league school are you guys going to?

>>14521678
Everything is larping... Filling walls with drawings and crap is absolutely horrible, old people/money dont do that, they are way simpler. Filling stuff with crap is nigger tier

>>14521690
>Everything is larping...
Dressing in ivy League style because you enjoy it and think it looks good is not larping.
Trying to mimic old money style and way of life, constantly worrying about what people from actual old money would do, even though you're not actually from old money is pathetic larp.
Fill your walls with drawings if you feel like it, no one gives a fuck and especially not old money.

>>14521680
Personally I've already graduated University 10 years ago. My mom was a high public servant for over 30 years. My parents were never filthy rich but I've never had to worry about a job or anything, or affording nice clothes and all the other stuff. I'm sure some guys in here have gone to legit prep schools when they were younger, some of my friends did, my parents never really put that as a priority, but they couldve afforded it. They put me in Public School, which i believe actually used to mean something prestigious at least decades ago in England. It used to be that if your parents were somehow connected to the State, that you got privileges, but today it's not like that. Public school today means basically a lot worse education than you would get at a private school with private tutors and global exchange classes.

For me Prep is a style, it's not really even one I chose, it just is what suits me. It's what people "want" me to be, based on my physiology and demeanour etc. I've learned this over time, and trying to be a rebel or a "thug" trying to fit in to lower class friends and people, it just doesn't work, but it's not even about money, it's a mentality. The rest is upbringing.


Will I send my own child to prep school? Probably.

Summer euro prep.
Bonus: heritage Cartier tank watch

What the actual fuck are those disgusting things on your feet? They look like women’s slippers or something.

>>14521768
Espadrilles. I usually go for a conservative, solid color but decided to go a bit wild with those. Turns out everybody hates them so I just wear them to spite people. Also they're very comfy.

>>14521253
WHAT ARE THOSE

Call me a retard, at least I'm not a jew and I know what tradition means you fucking larper

Fashion is artifice. It's all fake. These Japanese business men almost certainly didn't go to yale in the 60's. Are you going to accuse then of inauthenticity? I think they look awesome and I couldn't give a damn about their ivy credentials.

My brother went to MIT and Harvard and he doesn't even dress like any of these posers in this thread. I guess people can fake it until they make it, meanwhile authentic folk aren't pretending.

>>14522168
no. why are chinese people even trying to do this shit. stick to whatever the fuck you guys have. Except for the china dolls they can do what they want the males need to be herded some place and fuck off before they make themselves uglier.

>>14522282
>Implying that people in this thread are pretending to be from the ivy League and not taking stylistic cues from Harvard and Yale students of the 60s.

Everyone knows that no one in the ivy League schools dresses like this anymore. I don't even know how I would dress if for some delusional reason I wanted to pretend to be a Yale student.

>>14522308

>>14522312
not even fratboys dress like this?

thinking about copping a burgundy and a beige/stone cardigan so I can hide my suspenders and wear ties without looking like an engineer desu

What is the difference between a blazer and a suit jacket? I am going to try to thrift a navy blazer and don't want to buy the wrong thing.

WARNING: you have to be attractive to pull this off. Otherwise you just look autistic af.

>>14522534
Blazers are usually more relaxed and have brass buttons and they can be a more casual fabric. And obviously a suit jacket should have a matching pair of pants.

>>14517155
gray t-shirt with the logo of your alma mater/high school/social club.

>>14516210
This man perfectly embodies the style

>>14522534
Suit jackets are often longer and are made of worsted wool which can often have a shiny appearance. Blazers tend to have more informal features such as patch pockets.

>>14522168
The blazer on the guy looks cheap and the doesn't have the right body type anyway

>>14522538
Don't you have to be attractive to pull off anything? There isn't any style that looks good on ugly people.
>>14522330
Fratboys dress up like fratboys. Think vineyard vines, poorly fitting everything and horrific bright colours. Fratboys are like a mutant offspring of ivy. They almost have nothing in common.

>>14522616
How does it look cheap? It looks like one of those unlined cotton blazer which have been dyed and washed for that "lived in" look.

>>14522626
Look at the shitty quality seams

>>14522633
Those seams are intentional m8. I bought this ralph lauren blazer and it has the exact same thing.

>>14522626

>>14522650
Well then it doesn't look technically cheap, but it's still ugly for my tastes

i can't take a size pic with the jackets since i gave the ashby away. i'd say try them on at a store if you can. if you can't, get the beaufort. its the OG model anyway with a better heritage rather than the newer "modern cut" ashby. plus the beaufort is made in england (trad as fuck) and has more tartan lining on the inside. these are two things you want whether you realize it or not bro

Prep style is one of the few authentically international styles. Even beyond the exotic origins of khaki and madras, the British set up prep school systems in India, Egypt, Hong Kong, etc

>>14522672

I noticed I don’t have a brown belt. What would you guys recommend? It seems like most retailers have horribly thick belts with huge buckles.

This blazer...

>>14522691

>>14522714
Or this one?

>>14522714
Looks comfy. Too short for my tastes though.

>>14522714

Second looks better

Thanks. I'm partial to the second one but it's more expensive.

>>14522723

>>14519524
it doesn't really matter, but that pen is particularly ugly, it would be nice to have a gold pen to match your theme, but at least just a pen that doesn't stand out like a sore dick

do black derbys have a place in prep?

I want this

>>14522805
I think they are too formal.

>>14522860
Ahh thats what I suspected

In lieu of a Safari thread, can anyone point me to a long sleeved cotton khaki shirt with pointed pocket flaps?

>>14522858
Stop

>>14522805
Black shoes are not prep.

>>14522897
Anything specific that is wrong with it?

What's a good brand for blazers? As in legit navy blue brass button blazers. I have Haspel seersucker but can't afford that again.

>>14522805
Maybe get a brown shade for some weekend or weeknight chores

The problem I see with Beaufort and Bedale is that sleeves are too short, whereas Ashby reaches your hand.

>>14523470
Getting the Ashby would seem inauthentic. You want the experience of the original and it’s functionality , not some pretend version of it to wear in the office. See where the jacket takes you

>>14524146
>You want the experience of the original and it’s functionality
Arent they the same more or less? I see the difference of:
>longer sleeves at ashby
>beaufort is longer
>beaufort fit is a bit baggier
>beaufort allows you to place a liner inside for cold
>ashby not always made in UK

But the rest: pockets, cloth, neck, interior... is the same right?

>>14524146
If you're only buying the jacket to the office then wouldn't it be more authentic to buy the Ashby?

>>14524163
The Beaufort has a special back pocket for putting the odd pheasant. The whole argument about authenticity is stupid anyway. It's the most pretentious shit ever.

why isnt there a single prep fit in WAYWT threads?

Do you usually wear rugby shirts? if so, what colours?

>>14524347
Waywt is strictly for a certain kind of teenage style. Prep would get mocked relentlessly. Same reason that bootfags never post their fits in waywt. Also judging by the comments I'd guess that 90% of thread participants are complete beginners and have no idea how to dress.

>>14524353
> I'd guess that 90% of thread participants are complete beginners and have no idea how to dress.
In this thread or in what one?

>>14523000
Buttons can be replaced even by yourself.

>>14524347
there is nothing exciting about our style? it's anti consumer almost. we just want to buy quality clothing that will last and will always be in style.
a good portion also probably just want to step up their office attire as well or transition out of young adult styles to something professional.

>>14523470
>beaufort
honestly I noticed no difference between the two when it came to sleeve length. one thing to keep in mind is the ashby has pre-cuffed corduroy while the Beaufort is flat. I cuff the Beaufort still, and like my sleeves short like above my wrist bone. uncuffed id say Beaufort is fine. what's your height/weight? I read a lot of reviews for the jackets before buying and heard many people say the sleeves were too short for them, which is odd because I didn't have that experience at all with two jackets even. I'm pretty sure it was taller bigger dudes that had problems with the sleeve length. if you are an orangutan, get the ashby - the pre cuffed corduroy sleeves could be unrolled. however I kid you not, I couldn't even wear a thin sweatshirt under the ashby without being serious uncomfortable and unable to lift my arms parallel to the ground. im 5'8 130 ish

>>14523470
I forgot to mention another difference is the stitching of the shoulders. the Beaufort I think the seam is like a raglan while the ashby I think the seam is right on top your shoulders. for detail minded people like me this was annoying because the shoulders are usually the first place the waxing wears out, and its a concession by the manufacturer probably due to cost cutting rather than making something the right way - raglan shoulders are a flat surface vs the seamed ashby. which one is more likely to have water get through?

this is entirely splitting cunt hairs of difference but just another little detail I noticed when I had both and was trying to figure out how the two jackets are night and day different and what Barbour did differently between the two. also the ashby had shinier brass buttons while the Beaufort had matte black buttons which I liked more - less contrast and they grabbed the eye less.
