was having lunch with my gf the other week near a trendy hotel that is very popular among black/brown peeps.
holy shit do black dudes wear some garish shit.
in a 1 hour time frame i saw:
> bright green velvet dinner jacket at lunch time on a saturday.
>pink suit shorts, pink blazer
> so many bright colored loafers in extremely pointy/italian shapes
the women they were with if they weren't gay, all were well dressed. it was just every black dude in absolute peacock skinny fit menswear.

>Will larson weejuns (pic rel) hold up as an entry level loafer? Never had some before but would like to get into shoes that aren't sneakers.
yeah they'll be fine entry level loafers. you may want to size down for loafers, because the fit is really important. so be sure to measure your foot and go off their size guide.
if you can go try them on in a store, definitely do it.

It's a punt, not a 'boat', you're not going to get wet/do any work as long as you're not doing the punting yourself. White trousers/chinos are perfectly acceptable

The weird thing is this photo is punting in Oxford in the summer in 'shirt/tie/wool jumper/wool jacket' or 'shirt/turtleneck/duffle coat'. I get they're trying to model A/W in June, but those models must be absolutely sweltering

>>14659237

For the guernsey list, 'The Sweater Company' do guernseys and other similar designs, Made in England for really quite cheap: https://www.notonthehighstreet.com/thesweatercompany

The maker's tag is 'Telford Tradition'. They seem to use a more ordinary and softer kind of wool than the heavyweight kind used by the traditional guernsey makers and in a slightly more wearable cut (at least I find), so I think if one wanted a guernsey design but are put off by some of the 'traditional' features of the older makers this might be a good alternative

>>14659306
>>14659373

which "list" exactly have you added the cricket jumpers to.
Some of us are casual browsers and do not necessarily follow every reference in every thread.

>>14659331
Ivy essentials will not change. Blazer, ocbd, penny loafers, flannels. High waist, soft shoulder and generous fit that allows movement. No logos.

Add whatever you like to that as long as it fits the college theme. I personally think that a university hoodie looks good on top of chinos and ocbd. Sneakers work as long as they're not too flashy. A cap is a great addition as are various long coats. Even a parka can work as long as its over a blazer or something suitably formal. What's essential IMO with any of these styles is to nail the basics first and then you can build upon that foundations.

>>14659910
You can find photos of different shoes there to get an idea about how they are in reality (stitching, scratches...) and also the personal experience of some people

>>14658083
I seriously love that pic. Does anyone have an old image that was threads ago that had a green Ralph Lauren shirt? I think it was madras

>>14659910
Not him, but personally i consider monkstraps to be in an odd place between oxford shoes and loafers in the formality scale. Somewhat similar to brogued oxfords, but less interesting overall.
Would rather get cheap monkstraps than a cheap brogued oxford, though.

Outside of the anglosphere they are extremely classy.

>>14661231
I'd say logos are acceptable in preppy fits but not so much in ivy and trad. Thé exception is collegiate sweatshirts and the like.

>>14661342
People underestimate how important it is to be sensitive to your surroundings. Clothing is a lot about context as much as you hear annoying narcissists robotically bleat that you should only "dress for yourself". Thankfully, tip is extremely flexible as a style. You have a lot of options to suit every situation.

Post inspos for tennis sweaters. It's surprisingly hard to find anything nice on internet.

>>14661456
Also shorter and missing the classic trad details like a single vent, 3 button 2 roll and those patch pockets with flaps. European jackets often have waist suppression and sometimes padded shoulders (English style very often does)

>>14661449
Looks similar to a neapolitan blazer

>>14661456

>>14661449
Does the pic related look good in /tip/ opinion? That's a typical middleclass office attire in a big city. It's fine and clean but also very meek in a way. I assume that most of people here are still (undergraduate) students at most, so it might look interesting to you but to be fair once you get a reasonable job you'll find this kind of outfits terrifyingly boring as every average Joe and Tom from your job will look that way. I miss times when I could encompass my college/varsity stuff into my outfits without looking juvenile.

>>14661514
People in this thread are mostly all in 23-25 years old range, with some even older than that.

López Aragón has one of the closest things to american style, price is around there iirc

>>14661458
Nobody wears sweaters for either tennis or cricket anymore. There is dedicated performance apparel for that.
Traditionally, in northern temperate climates, a sleeveless wool sweater is worn over a cotton t-shirt.

>>14661514
The white shirt is the office drone dead give away. The trousers are also meh, solid colour chinos would have been way better.
As often said over here, the trousers and the shirt are the basics, you then build on from there. He got those wrong, hence your obvious discomfort.

>>14661562
Avoid this at all costs

>>14661556
>Under jacket it looks good
I disagree. The neck trim is too low and looks horrible under a jacket.
They are best worn casually on their own over a shirt.

>>14661574
>The neck trim is too low
That depends on the model, some have it higher than others, see:
>>14661560
>>14661559

Higher ones are the ones that look good with jacket

These are from NB

>>14661625

i have a question in regards to grooming while dressing ivy/trad. what kinds of scents would complement the overall look? i need to buy new soaps and deodorants, but i want it too match my new sense of style.

i was thinking of going for a subdued smell such as ‘fresh linen’ or ‘ocean’. i don’t want to it to be overbearing when i walk into a room. however, i would like the scent to linger on me for a few hours. any advice?

>>14661518
>López Aragón

Where can I find good pictures of how they fit? I like pic related. Shame it isn't 3 button.

>>14661449
It's a blazer... What kind is hard to say. Shoulders look a bit padded and the jacket itself is short. It's probably just an off the rack blazer bought on the high street.

>>14661550
i like it but it's near office core. I'd change the pants

>>14661625
That guys sleeves are way too short. Also the black derbys, the charcoal trousers... These don't work with the sporty cricket jumper.

>>14661684

Great thanks for the help. That pic though has a bunch of 3 button jackets that are definitely not tip. The quarters are too open and they look too fitted. Also I'm dead set on the flapped patch pockets.
I'll check out those links. Right now I'm reading diediencap forums about their experiences

Ah sweet. I've got the same cords.

>>14661704
>The best is under a jacket/coat
They are best worn casually, vintage style, sleeveless over a shirt, as they are meant to be worn when playing cricket.
They don't look good otherwise unless worn in a formal setting.

>>14661723
>>14661550

>>14661737
Sure! Here's with the jacket on. I just bought it used yesterday for 70e.

>>14661924
And here's without the jacket. I rather like the shetland from Harley's, hard to find shorter sweaters, although I wish this was a bit shorter as well ( I have to roll the waistband a bit).

>>14661924
you got scammed

>>14661937

If a made in Europe M65 jacket made of pure cotton which has been treated to be water repellent is a scam, then I'll gladly take it.

>>14661924
So Prep is basically just wearing clothes (that always have buttons or collars) and that are too baggy for your body and don't quite fit right.

>>14661986
oi look, bait

>>14661924
You ever watched dark?

>>14661986
No, but some people like bagginess

>>14661937
Why?

>>14661932
I think that cuffing the pants will improve the fit because some bagginess might dissapear and also will make boots more visible

>>14662040

I specifically lengthened the pants by 1cm because previously I feel they were too short. I do not really like the modern way pants are supposed to be so short - I like just a touch of break. I think the bagginess comes from corduroy being corduroy and my liking of having quite full leg / knee width in trousers. I feel that when the top is quite full with the pleats and all, one can have quite a roomy thigh and knee with it still looking proportioned. Of course, it works better with wool trousers than corduroy - cords just don't drape that well.

>>14662039

What brands used to produce these gorgeous ancient madder ties? I can't really afford getting one from Drake's and looking for second-hand ones one eBay without any keywords is really not worth time as first one needs to browse tons of shit. I was trying to look up brands like Budd, Turnbull & Asser, Benson & Clegg but that's where my knowledge pretty much ends. In particular I'm looking for one with a lively mid-sized geometric pattern contrasting to a toned-down classic plain background or a negative. I'll post a few inspos of what I mean.

>>14662327

>>14662330
You should get the gist by now and if you follow any /tip/ instagrams you for shure have seen shitload of such ties but I can't really pin them down

dark academia is too similar to this

are the new j.crew oxford shirts passable? -from their site:
>The Oxford cloth button-down shirt is a quintessential wardrobe staple and a hallmark of old-school collegiate style. It's beloved for its easy versatility: it can dress up chinos or make a suit feel more relaxed. Our oxford is made from American Pima cotton, a species that has longer fibers than other varieties of cotton which makes it stronger, softer and less likely to pill. As an added bonus, it's engineered with mechanical stretch: the 100% cotton fabric is woven loosely, then washed, giving it natural elasticity without having any stretch fibers.
>We kept the collar unlined and a little on the long side, a nod to its Ivy League heritage.

>>14662581
Collar still looks bad and I'm sure their shirts are also still thin and too short for a good tuck. Not sure why you would bother with j.crew shirts when Spier and Mackay exists.

BABY COLLAR ROLLS

>>14662599

>>14662603

I used to love j.crew but after buying slightly more expensive shirts I realise how over priced they were. Spier and Mackay makes styleforum posters cum and It's basically the same as suitsupply (good fit, decent collars, mensweary, made in China).

so you recommend the oxford?
>china

>>14662618
If you're poor, China is fine. Oxford is recommended.

>>14662612
i'm sure these are also missing details like pleat, button back collar, locker loop. i may save up for kamekura.

>>14661625
>buying clothes that small

>>14662629
Those details are just affections. They're hardly important. The only thing I'd swear off is short collars and darting.

>>14662645
true, collar and fabric weight is all i care about. spier and mackay is sold out in most of the non-lightweight non-slim fit I wear. Do they restock often?

Am I missing out by going for button down collar only? I just like them better and don't have a long head, so I don't need the spread.

>>14662650
Sorry, don't know. You might also want to try hitman vintage. Made in the USA and great quality. They're often on sale at various stockists.

>>14662667

Black is the least /tip/ colour that exists

It's not that black is non /tip/, its that it is reserved for specific things to maximise its impact when it is used

Black silk knit tie, black loafers, black tie, etc

Charcoal is the black of /tip/

DA is just earth tone prep. But the term prep seems to alienate people.

Where to cop a proper university-stripe OCBD in the UK/EU? By proper I mean a real collar, non slim fit, sized neck and arm length etc

Is Drakes the only option (£145 is stretching it for a shirt)? Much as I dislike the pony logo and lack of pocket, I'm considering getting a RL 'Yarmouth' one for ~£20 just because there are no other options

>>14662800
Nothing particularly bad about Ralph. Especially when you have limited options. I would get shirtonomy if you can. The collar is nice and the fabrics are great. 80quid I think.

If what you're asking for is the word, the term for ties of this type of pattern is "geometric floral tie". It's a pretty dumb term if you ask me.

Sometimes they're also mislabeled as Macclesfield ties but the Macclesfield spot is properly both smaller and woven, not printed.

Does anybody else feel cozy and safe when dressing like this? The fabrics, tartan patterns, leathers, soft sweaters, etc. just make me feel incredibly cozy.

Who makes flannels that look good and are well made? I like flannel and wool shirts, but most patterns and colors I see look unappealing.

>>14662581
>the 100% cotton fabric is woven loosely, then washed, giving it natural elasticity without having any stretch fibers.

aka this is a cheaply made, shirt with loose threads all over the place. Except now they realized you may as well trick the lower class into thinking cheaply made loose-thread clothing is somehow "collegiate"

>>14662766
>black is not used in tip
This is why TIP will never be smart and formal. It's literally the antithesis of sophistication and elegance. It's basically pink pants and fucking green shirts. It's for people who are shit at understanding true design aesthetics.

>>14662971
I thinkyou mean this post >>14660405
Pajeets and brown lower class wear polo ralph lauren. Polo's entire philosophy is to create a brand that looks like it's exclusive private club upper class with that polo horse logo and crests, but yet it not exclusive at all. Because you can buy these cheap bangladeshi made clothing items at every single department store.

How much would stand out - perhaps negatively - dressing prep in Germany? I'll be there for a while starting soon.

I think you are missing:
-Taller boot for rain
-Some other type of loafer

3 brogues and 3 penny loafers seem too much

>>14663807
No black Friday but prices are always 50% off retail aroundabout

Are these shoes acceptable for F/W with anything but a formal suit?

>>14663853
I really dislike how high the lacing is in this. You could probably try iit. I suspect it is too formal.

>>14663858
My thoughts exactly. Because of shoelaces and the sleek profile imo under trousers they’ll look like wholecut oxfords and there are barely any more formal shoes. The brand is good and price is a steal though so I hope someone can change my mind here.

>>14663795

>>14663586

>>14663877
This

>>14663877
Yeah, but he has a point, doesn't he? I literally cringe every time I see their made up crests and coats of arms of clubs, sports associations etc. I remember when I asked a guy at my uni what rowing club his 'Polo Ralph Lauren Boat Club' rugby shirt is from and played stupid at his embarrassed mumbling responses. If you want to wear rowing stash then start rowing, it's not that hard idiots. The other day I was trying these lovely critter pants from PRL, but unfortunately one of the patters was Skull&Bones on the 'Y' coat of arms. I had to drop them. Maybe that's me living for too long in Britain but I believe that it really matters what you wear and what it can mean. Let it be stripped ties, club stash or athletic clothing. That being said I think they make good basic stuff for the prices offered at TK/JMaxxes, but definitely not worth it at retail prices.

>>14663892
>stripped tie
Yeah, not many people know that it's one of the biggest giveaways of being an aspiring lowermiddleclass. In the right spheres ties, if stripped or with crest patterns, are always subject of a smalltalk as means of establishing status and belonging. Don't wear them anons if you don't know what they mean.

>>14663892

You also can't wear aran sweaters if you aren't irish or wear boat shoes if you don't have a boat.

>>14663892
>Muh authenticity

>t. seething lowerclass cucks that try with issues with sense of belonging
Wrong thread mates. Let's be honest; if not the globalization and internet you would never be able to wear /tip/ stuff larpers.
>Aran sweaters
>boat shoes
Two missed shots. Aran sweaters are not Irish piece of clothing. They just originate from there. I will help you to make a case though as you're likely just an uneducated American - you can't wear clan tartans or kilts if you're not Scottish. And that's true. Even if you have a boat, wearing boat shoes in the city is ridiculous. Anyone can wear them in marine setting though. If you were a bit more cultured, you'd know that it's the type of shoes that for example punters wear and I sincerely doubt that any of them owns a boat. That's just a common sense but I guess you can't learn it over internet.

>>14663896 I worked in a barrister chambers and there were barristers there who wore striped ties because they looked nice and bought them in a shop (or more often their wives did). I have a few striped ties from school and from the varsity team I was a member of. They're obviously not generic as they have coats of arms on them to accompany the stripes. It's completely rediculous of you to suggest that your can't wear striped ties because they might hold a meaning to someone somewhere. Here are some ties I bought recently. Should I not wear this in case 0.5% of the population looks at it and mistakes it for a tie he wore at his rowing club?

>>14663892
I agree made up coats of arms are tacky. Something as innocuous as stripes is not. Not sure why you would ask someone about the origin of their rugby if you already knew it was ralph. Not very classy behaviour i m o.

Is this watch prep approved?

>>14663960
Interested to know as well. I'll never buy his stuff because I don't live in the states but a lot of it looks nice at least. Well, the sweaters and accessories at least.

Today's fit. This shaggy, whilst rediculously cosy makes me look obese.

>>14663963
It's a free world mate, I can't tell you to don't do something. You can even wore PUSSY NIGGA 69 hoodie or a big Harvard Law sweater despite never stepping your foot there. But that's on par with NASA larping. I just point out that we will always look down and laugh at you.

Try higher rise trousers. What's your budget like? You could try natalino. I have some flannels from them that I love and someone posted some green cords earlier from them.

>>14663992
Love socks, loafers need treatment

>>14663960
Their flannels are 100% cotton and made in USA according to the website. I would avoid those overpriced sweaters even if they look nice, but some items are probably fine

>>14663835
Thanks. I'm somewhat hesitant about boots because I've got short legs (29" inseam) so they wouldn't be very flattering. Could you recommend boots that aren't they tall? Regarding the tan brogues. I went through a phase seven years ago where that's all I wore, I would rotate between three pairs of tan brogues for work. Now these two are left. Still I good condition though. I'm trying to get different colours now though.

>>14664043
Loafers will be forever haggered I'm afraid. I actually added some mink oil moisturiser last night and some neutral polish. Not sure what else I could do.

Here are my shoes. 1 pair of sneakers, 1 pair of goretex ankle sneakers for heavy rain, 2 pairs of penny loafers, 1 brogued oxford, 1 pair of chelsea boots for moderate rain, 1 pair of jodhpur boots, 1 pair of boat shoes.

Some chelseas like the ones I have are probably what you need, because they are taller than chukka or other ankle boots but they don't have the height of usual chelseas, they are a bit in the middle of height.

>>14664040
>What's your budget like?

Thats a really interesting brand. French company that manufactures in Almansa. GYW and in the 150-200€ range. How comfortable are they? Do they have many defects?

Very comfortable and no defects. Basically the finishing isn't great. The leather is just decent but yeah for the price you won't find better in France.

Other french brands include septième largeur paraboot and JM Weston but the latter is super overpriced and paraboot is very very sloppy
