Where to cop prep gf? Boston?

Aussie prep brands? I currently just wear Ralph Lauren and RM Williams but wondering if there are AU versions of J Press or some shit where I can get it tailored.

>>14692661
AARCH has some stuff, also check that gezzaeyes Instagram, he is australian and might show some brand from there

>>14692667
As far as I can tell he's dressed head to toe in Drake's all day every day.

Threadly reminder that cuckolding IS the TIP approved fetish (bmwf only)

>>14692669
He has some other stuff between the Drake's stuff hahaha. There is hope for anon

>>14692686
Yes, I LOVE to cuckold elders, I go to their homes and fuck their wives while they look at my hairy ass. Last time I did it, it was your house, so expect a new brother in 9 months

>>14692686
Wmbf is more trad though

Quite cold here in Finland, first time wearing the thick alpaca cardigan.

M65 - APC
Shawl cardigan - Alpa
Shirt - Proper Cloth
Trousers - Natalino
Derbies - Heschung

>>14692802
Finally someone wearing nice clothes from quality brands'. So tired of seeing mall shit. Btw, interested you went with proper coth cloth, you from the states?

>>14692885
Thanks! I just wanted to try proper cloth out, I have most of my MTM shirts from Herrainpukimo and Shirtonomy. Even with taxes and shipping to Europe, the proper cloth shirts were about 90e per shirt which is about the same as the other brands. I prefer the fabric of the other brands, though, proper cloth has very thick oxfords and I tend to sweat a lot.

>>14692906
>Shirtonomy
I've used them too. I particularly like the yellow Oxford. It's kind of a nice cream.

>>14692908
I haven't tried their yellow but have one from Herrainpukimo. Truly a great colour for oxfords, one of my favourites. I have a chambray and denim one from Shirtonomy, the details are excellent for the price.

>>14692599
Cambridge, Boston isn’t prep all the Ivy League schools are across the river

>>14692991
>>14692988
You sound like such pretentious fa/ggots

>>14692988
What details?

>>14692999
>Talking about clothes on /fa/ is now pretentious.
Cool. A new word to add to the filter
>>14692988
I like the formal button down collars. The only issue is that they shrink a bit more than I'd like.

do you guys have any young female trad/ivy/prep inspo? wanna try out the look. this is as close as i got to it once

>>14693022
tuck your shirt in

>>14693022
That looks great.

>>14693022
Collared shirts look so good on girls

>>14693020
>still hasn't figured out that everything on this board is just an ironic satire, or should we say, a tragedy

So I tried on some Milano fit BB ocbd's and it still felt like wearing a tent. I'm builtfat and short (1.70). Guess these need to be tailored for a proper fit?

>>14693022
>C6FAF1CE-7A99-4BFB-B6B2-5(...).jpg
The club collar blouse (shirt?) is nice, but if you look at trad womenswear you'll see that not only the blouse but the jumper is typically tucked. With a higher-waist skirt, this gives really nice proportions which are admittedly "vintage-style" but timeless in that they look great. (Also, if you want to lean into /tip/ style presumably a vintage look won't bother you?)

>>14693075
You can't be fat. Those shirts are slimfit for sure.

Wearing these socks today

>>14693075
Where you wearing the correct size? Those are slim fit

>>14692802
I like the colour of those pants

>>14693022
I like that, although it is improvable. The last instagram in each list from here >>14692576 are women, and saltwaternewengland and dressdecoded from OP are also woman related. Also: https://imgur.com/a/XZuwA

Related question: do burgers just not get how plebby the Burberry check is, or...?

i only own jeans and would like to branch out
does anyone have recommendations on where to buy some solid wool/cord pants and chinos?
preferably slim and not too expensive (100 or less) so that i can just buy a bunch and try them out
thanks

i will search through the OP meanwhile

>>14693212
US, UK or Euro?

>>14693218
euro
i buy uk stuff every now and then though, shipping is mostly fine

>>14693212
For slim fit and trying stuff, Uniqlo is probably your best bet. They don't have a lot of good cloth and so on but the quality is okay for the price. Just be aware that actually decent fabrics do make a difference, e.g. the high-wale slim cords Uniqlo sells are basically a different kind of trouser than 6- or 8-wale heavy cord high-rise bags with turnups.

Where do i find pants and jacket?
I really like both

Also, do you lads know any good brand for cute pattern socks?

>>14693212

I would not recommend Uniqlo or any other fast fashion, as the first will be off and the quality bad. Try Cordings, Natalino and Yeossal for quality trousers; all should be at around 100 quid.

>>14693212
Wool pants -> Massimo Dutti
Chinos -> Polo Ralph Lauren

>>14692991
Ever been to Cambridge? It’s literally crawling with Asians and art hoes. The preppie dream is dead at Harvard.

Looks super cute!

>>14693266
Have you looked in OP's list? There are lot of Knitwear brands there, probably lots of V-Necks

>>14693266

Harley of Scotland is my absolute favourite maker of Swetlands, Geelongs and Donegals. Very nice yarns, good and consistent sizing, comfy as hell. I have five different knits from them (one donegal, two geelongs, two shetlands).

I'd also recommend William Lockie, especially the knits they sell at Frans Boone Store. A bit more expensive, but very very nice and good designs.

>>14692686
fuck you nigger. stop shitting up the threads with nothing valuable to clothing.

>>14693111
Kek, spaghettiarmbois from this thread on suicide watch

anyone else dress tip but ironically

>>14693429
I thought the ironic meme died in 2011

>>14693376
Meh, I've never been a fan mostly because their crew knits have collars that stretch out a lot.

>>14693449
Could that be because of big stiff collars?

I like Ivy but it looks too try-hard if you're not attending an event with that specific dress code. Aren't there "more modern" alternatives to Ivy Prep? I know that defeats the charm and fascination, but there has to be something that isn't basic frat style.

>>14693463
Most of my ocdbs are unlined. It's because Harley jumpers are often 2 ply with a loose weave as well.

>>14693470
Out of interest where do you live? Prep, especially as it done in these threads is very inoffensive.

>>14693022
Wtc prep gf

>>14692802
Why the APC M65 and not milsurp? Better fit overall?

>>14693475
Floridian, will be moving to Georgia for my job after I graduate in May. When I move I'll end up looking like a Miami Vice character, so I'm trying to dabble in something new. I don't think Ivy Prep is "it", but it looks nice and something with similar "class" is what I'd like

>>14693470
You could just read more about sartorial dress and not necessarily lean into Ivy League style. maybe not the most "modern" look but you only have to take what you like

>>14693470
Trad/Prep/Ivy is an ideation. You use it as a framework and adapt your own style to it. But it's lifestyle too, do you spend time in fron of Fireplace (cozy sweater), or out sailing (dock shoes), do you spend alot of time reading, you don't want to be in skinny fit jeans then because it won't be comfortable. One leads the other.

Or maybe when you put your loafers on you just fell generally "preppy" and you like that. The opposite.

>Prep
>Dressing preppy
These are just ironic sayings, or used as an insult by the lower class.
>"Wow your really dressed up, got a date?"
No. I don't dress preppy, I am Preppy. I am a refined Man/Woman, I have taste in good quality clothes and have a higher pursuit of intellectual things.

Preps are seen as the defacto "normie" (or symbol of the upper class), I just watched this movie "Ready Player One", and as an example, this screenshot, is of the characters who are hired by the big corporation as new graduates from good schools to solve this large problem in the movie. Look at how their characters are dressed.

Then if you watch the movie, the opposite to this is the "rebel", characters (the proles), they are dressed in army field surplus jackets, and boots, like Punk.

>>14693685
Is this a new pasta?

Any opinions on Finamore shirts? There are some nice ones on sale for €110 at a nearby store.

>>14693685
This person has the right to vote.

Just think about that for a few seconds...

>>14693241
JCrew probably has that. They are just a blouson and a stone low rise slim fit chinos

>>14693685
Nowadays being rebellious is wearing a shirt tucked in a pair of chinos. The normie thing is wearing tshirt+jeans or tracksuit

>>14693818
Nah, very unlikely. Anon probably isn't old enough to vote.

This is a picture of Alan Watts from the mid-'70s so probably you can't.

>>14694006
Drake's sweater from >>14693664 is clearly not teal according to what appears when you search for "teal blue sweater" in Google Images. Another pic of it

>>14694037

Could you wear the Barbour eskdale in an office? I think so but some people I talked to said it looked more Carhartt.

>>14692573
Imagine that chick on the left being railed by gfk, I'm not usually into that sort of thing but I'd watch that. she'd have to be dressed like that and he'd have to have his classic jewellery on.

As many other anons have said. This is just a framework. Make it your own otherwise you'll end up looking like a larp.
Being in hotter climates, seersucker and linen are your best friend. With the seasons changing, you should go look for some navy seersucker trousers and see what you like. You'll probably find a great deal on summer fabric stuff right now. Perfect time to get your feet wet.

The raid never ends, at least the excesively toxic behaviour of 2 threads ago has dissapeared

>>14694137
don't wanna go full grandpa core
I'm not talking skinny either, just pants that fit

>>14694146
Just let us shitpost in peace. This comment also doesn't co tribute anything to the thread. I don't see you posting a fit

>>14694167
If you are thin, go with slim fit, which is what some posters around here tend to wear

>>14694167
Classic fit isn't grandpa core. Grandpa core would be relaxed fit with double pleats. The whole point of prep is that it looks timeless, never too trendy. Slim fit should be avoided. Your pants should have some drape to them. Clothes that fit too well look nouveau.

>>14694168

Damn, that shit looks good. Thanks for the recs anon. Do you know of any affordable brick & mortar stores that sell that kind of stuff, or would I have to shop mostly online?

>>14692686
I thought it would be swinging/wife swapping

>>14694269
Ah thank you.
>>14694318
How does that even happen? I'm down to 18ish. Lot of work involved

>>14694357
Castaway clothing has it all the time and Brooks Brothers usually release seersucker stuff in summer. JCrew or Lands End might have

>>14694269
>Don't tuck polo shirts
Wrong.

Slim fit was hardly even a thing back when /tip/ was popular and its retarded to adhere to the old standards just cuz. Change my mind.

>>14694395
Thanks anon, will take a look at them later this week. Appreciate the recommendations
>>14694269
Polo shirts are supposed to be tucked in? His tuck is just sloppy so he has a bit of muffin top, not a whole lot you can do about that

>>14694389
I dunno. I went to the nutricionist today and he said that i can drop to 10% BF, but not any lower. I lost all of my pants, but my sillhouete still looks fat. My thighs are huge (although mostly muscle), my ass still looks fat and i still have a small belly.
Maybe things will get better once i hit 10% and start focusing on building muscle. I hope.

>>14694357
it might be hard to find because the season is changing and it's getting snapped up
>>14694395
good list of brands. can't think of much else to add that's affordable and not total shit. do not buy jcrew online is my best piece of advice as most newbies seem to gravitate to them. they sell A LOT of really shitty stuff. also be prepared for anything you get to possibly only last a season or two. $40 wool sweaters are $40 for a reason.
with that said. i do have a handful of things from them that have held up but you'll get flamed in this thread for anything j crew.

>>14694406
Slim fit is just "clothes not made for fat people". With the exception of the higher end clothes, slim fit shirts always fit much better than standart fit on me, not being particularly tight. Might have to do with my height, though, since i am rather tall.
>>14694357
Outlets should have received the summer collection by now.

>>14694263
fuck I just opened this up on my laptop I need to clean my mirror
>>14694409
shouldn't you have been trying to build muscle anyway? Cutting down to 10 percent will make you look like a skelly auschwitz mode. Try bulking up your upper body to make the lower look smaller

>>14694395
Southern Marsh, Vineyard Vines and Country Club Prep also have Seersucker stuff

>>14694426
>Cutting down to 10 percent will make you look like a skelly auschwitz mode
I am at 12 and look fat. I have no reason to believe that i will look like a skeleton at 10. But yes, i will be bulking very soon.

>>14694433
yeah nice dubs, sounds like you might just be skinnyfat. Use on scoobysworkshop there is a beginning workout plan I have been following for a few months now. Went from fat bitch to just bulky/chubby

>>14694106
That's what I thought but I wanted to check.

>>14694439
How can i be skinnyfat with 12% body fat? Skinnyfat is someone with a relatively high bf% but is deceivingly skinny due to his build.
I already have a proper workout. I have lost 20kg so far. Luckly, i can at least confirm that this was not enough to create those weird skin excesses that overly fat people get and need to have surgery to remove.

>>14694366
The real TIP fetish is having a wife and two or three mistresses who know enough to keep in their lane and keep you respectable.

>>14694446
Based. Bonus points if you sleep with your secretary.

Are hoods universally antithetical to prep? Hooded flannel looks like it'd be maximum comf layered under a jacket for outdoors activities.

>>14694445
I mean if you're skinny but look fat then isn't that skinnyfat? You could just have a poor body shape
>>14694465
Hoods just don't seem prep desu, a sweatshirt looks leagues better than a hoodie, a sweater is even better.

>>14694465
If you want something more casual than a sweater, a fleece quarter zip would be a preppier choice.

>>14694465
>Are hoods universally antithetical to prep
Hoods attached to a shirt/jacket will always be antithetical to prep. If you are in europe, you can use a hooded cloak, i guess.
>prep on outdoor activities
wat

>>14694475
>outdoor activities
Aren't you supposed to play croquet and pretend it's fun or some shit?

>>14694569
bruh croquet is super fun. It's my 3rd fave after baseball and volleyball

>>14694588
Two of those are fun, and I'm not croquet can be lumped in with them kek

>>14694569
You just made me watch some croquet videos. It looks fun desu, although it is barely an outdoor activity, since there is little activity and you just stand on a field.

>>14694606
I suppose not everyone has to like the same things as me. Croquet feels like the fun version of golf. It's like a more strategic bocce. But to go back to the original point i would say that hoods are not prep. Not sure about Trad or Ivy though since I don't dabble in those

>>14694475
How the hell is a cloak prep?

>>14694627
We use capes and cloaks on university here. It's part of the attire.

>>14694613
>>14694610
I like golf and baseball myself so I guess I can't complain. I don't mind croquet I just thought it was considered lame by most people, I used to play it as a kid.

>>14694633
t. hufflepuff dark academia lord
>>14694634
baseball is dope. Not sure if it's prep but playing on the work team is nice. Volleyball is the best summer sport imo. Gives me a chance to flex on normies who play casually.

>>14694269
>Don't tuck polo shirts
What else are you supposed to do when they come in super long sizes now days? Fit from July

>>14694269
>untucked polo shirt
That reminds me of something a high school employee would wear desu. When I was in high school, the prinicipal was a balding, perpetually angry manlet with a dorky chinstrap beard and incel glasses, and everyday he stomped around the halls of the school in an untucked Nike polo shirt

>>14694695
>they come in super long sizes now
buy what fits you
super long is for tall men

the polo is a tennis shirt
if it's tucked in you can't play right
never tuck in a polo or a t shirt

>>14694738
Let's agree to disagree

>>14694719
It kinda is, tucked or not. Just a polo with pants is gonna look that way.

>>14694749
yeah. I feel like it comes down to your body to make a polo look good or not. Like it will look good with a slim or athletic physique but if you're a lardo it will look bad. Well I guess that's just all clothes in general

Depends on brand, quality, fit and how you style it. A well-fitting Lacoste or Ralph Lauren polo with all cotton cuffed khakis and penny loafers will look preppy, while an ill-fitting shiny polyester polo with no logo or a an athletic brand logo (Nike, Under Armor, etc) with shitty polyester khakis and cheap running shoes or crappy rockport loafers will just look dorky.

I have two golf jackets: a khaki one, and a navy one. If I'm wearing khaki pants with a navy sweater, which color jacket should I wear? I'm worried that they would both look too "matchy matchy"

>>14694760
Dunno, polyester polos are inherently bad imo, they just aren't appropriate outside of sports and shorts.

>>14694738
>never tuck in a polo shirt
In what world are you living in? It's more traditional and appropriate to tuck in a polo shirt. Don't tuck if it's super short, but otherwise always tuck. Polo shirts around where I live come in long just like shirts in order to tuck them in.

>>14694738
>the polo is a tennis shirt

You're stuck. You should do neither of those; the khaki will give the exact weird "a-suit-but-I-fucked-it-up" impression you want to avoid more than anything, and navy on navy isn't much better. The moment to fix this problem was in the store, when you bought whichever you got last of the sweater and jackets. Now you're boned. It's too late, and you're boned.

The picture is garbage due to the exposition, since i was in a hurry when i took a photo. It looks black, but it is actually a light navy blue, similar to that other jacket.
I still need to check things such as brand reputation, lapelle quality and if it has a shoulder gap (although it didnt seem like it did the other day i tested it)

Is this chart accurate?

>>14695854
Easy or hard in regards to what? Styling? If so, the upper left loafer is harder to style than many below it, and a butterfly loafer, while ugly, is not that hard to style with other pieces.
I would say that a good scale of styling would be penny/horsebit>lace>tassel loafers, disregarding colour.

>>14695857
In the difficulty of combining it with other stuff and make it look good. Disregard the colours of the items, it's just about the type of loafer.

Khaki jackets are a trap. I have a PRL golf jacket and I bought khaki, thinking it was versatile, but I can't wear it with my most versatile outfit which of course involves khaki chinos. My trousers that are not khaki are generally more formal (grey flannel, worsted wool, etc) and they demand to be paired with a sportcoat, not a golf jacket.

having learned my lesson, I never buy jackets or sweaters that can't be matched to khaki

>>14696797
Khaki works well with everything except khaki (same shade or very similar) and black

>>14696797
Just wear navy or gray pants my dude. Even olive green or red would look good. Literally any color of pants except khaki will look good.

How should the shoulders of an unlined suit be?
I am considering buying one, but the shoulders are like pic related, with my shoulder bones falling short from the actual bend of the suit. This is normal in lined suits, since the lining makes sure that the shoulder has a straight-ish line between the neck and the arms. Is that a nice fit, or are the shoulders too big? The suit fits me quite well otherwise.

I bought some straight fit chinos and there is a lot of fabric around my ankles. Am I just supposed to ignore this?

No, you're supposed to go to your local alteration tailor and ask him to raise the hems. This is totally normal and basically the easiest clothes alteration there is.

>>14697039

Higher-end (400+) suitsupply is pretty good for the money. Make sure they are made in Europe and have full canvas. These are primarily italian-styled suits, though, in both Milanese and napolitan style, which is not very prep.
Depending on your budget, it may be better for you to go for made to measure($800+) or bespoke ($3000+).
I am very hesitant in recommending expensive ready to wear suits such as j press and ermenegildo zeugma because the other 2 methods have a much better value proposition compared to the fit. They may have some pretty awesome fabrics, specially in the case of zeugma, which is one of the world’s largest fabric manufacturers.

>>14697728
Thanks anon! Looks like I’ll be sticking to suit supply for now. I’m planning on going back to school in a few years and am trying to save as much as possible, though buying bespoke is for sure a long term aspiration.

You have got to tuck it, desu. These are clearly dress shirts not made to be used untucked, as they are falling on the same level of your crotch or lower. It is lower than a jacket, even, which makes it look even worse.

>>14698219
>These are clearly dress shirts
It's an OCBD, that is not that dressy

>>14697728
Excellent post. I will add though that due to being Italian and also because of the demands of luxury-tier fast fashion, a lot of Ermenegildo Zegna fabrics are thin and not hard wearing. Some are downright underdone. They *can* make really great fabric but often don't because it's not what's ordered (or in demand, a lot of people just don't know how to discern good cloth and end up preferring things that are not good). Because Zegna gained an immense reputation as a good clothmaker, now there is a huge incentive to cut corners on what you order from them so you can say that you're using a genuine Zegna textile, without having to pay for what the good shit would cost.

> a lot of Ermenegildo Zegna fabrics are thin and not hard wearing. Some are downright underdone
Well, there is not much reason to buy their suits, then. Considering that they can cost well into the bespoke, they are downright inferior to a made to measure suit where you can pick your fabric, as i assumed they reserved some fine cloth for their suits.
I guess that settles it, then. €800 is the cost ceiling for ready to wear suits, anything over that will be downright inferior to mtm.
>>14697801
ST also recommended a manufacturer called Pini Parma for ready to wear suits on the same price range as suitsupply. Their collection looks nice.

For anyone just trying to experiment with the style, I think the best thing is to actually go into a store, try things on, get a few items on sale so you have options. As opposed to blowing that same amount on one premium item that you find on the net, which may or may not fit well.
